The new year is around the corner and there are plenty of recreation offerings to welcome in 2024.
Bend Park and Recreation District is opening registration for winter recreation and programs and winter/spring sports leagues on Dec. 4, Dec. 5 and Dec. 6. Available activities include programs held in January through March and sports leagues with registration deadlines during this time.
An online Winter 2024 Online Playlist is available for easy viewing and download.
Staggered registration dates ease the process for patrons and staff. Combined with a virtual waiting room, the staggering has been successful for past seasons’ openings in helping to manage load on the registration website.
Winter programs for January through March will open for registration at 6:00 a.m. as follows:
- Day 1, Dec. 4: Recreation, enrichment and sports programs
- Day 2, Dec. 5: Swim lessons and aquatics programs
- Day 3, Dec. 6: Sports leagues – winter and spring leagues including adult curling, adult/youth hockey, youth indoor soccer, youth lacrosse and youth softball leagues
For patrons who haven’t logged into their online account in the past 30 days, they are strongly encouraged to do so in advance at https://register.bendparksandrec.org to be sure they can successfully log in without issue and register for recreation programs.
