Swim diapers or snug-fitting plastic pants must be worn by anyone who is incontinent. Also please do not eat within 30 minutes of swimming.When registering for a class you are ONLY allowed to swim during the class time, there will be no swimming allowed to class partici-pants before or after the class session unless the customer pays a general admission or has a monthly or annual pass. For more informa-tion on Swimming classes visit our website and search: SWIMMING.

Online Registration Process • You must have an account to register online. New customers: visit https://registration.arlingtonva.us to establish one account. Confirmations are sent via email or mail the day they are processed. If you already have an account: If you know your household ID (listed above your address on your catalog’s mailing label) you can use the automated ID/password reminder function on the online registration system. If you have forgotten your user ID and password, contact the main registration office (703-228-4747 or [email protected]). Please ensure that your contact information is correct; we use it to communicate important announcements (if a spot becomes available in a waitlisted class, if a class gets cancelled/added, etc.)

Technical Problems • Although we have worked to minimize unexpected sessions timeouts, our system response time between screens may be slow for the first 10 minutes. We appreciate your patience.Idle web sessions time out after 5 minutes. If your session times out or you logout, ALL pending registrations in your households are removed. Please have only one computer logged into your household account when you are registering. If you experience a technical problem, please send us a detailed email includ-ing name of participant, desired class, and best contact information at [email protected] within 3 days of the registration day. All emails will be compiled and resolved within 5 business days.

Waitlist • Once a class has reached maximum capacity, you may enroll in a waitlist. Please note that we do use waitlists to expand capacity in current or future programs. Once a spot becomes available, you will be contacted via email or phone (the information that we have on your household account) and will be given up to 24 hour notice to respond before the next person on the wait list is offered the available spot. Wait listed participants can be contacted starting a week after first day of registration and up to 48 hours after the class. After 48 hours, all waitlists are voided. Be aware that, if the class has already started, fees will not be prorated for missed classes (you will be charged the full price) and there is no opportunity to cancel or transfer after 48 hours of the first class. If you are waitlisted for a class please do not attend the class. Being on the wait list does not guarantee enrollment.

First Day of Class • All participants must sign a Hold Harmless Agreement at the initial class. Adults must sign for children. Refusal to sign this agreement will result in the participant being denied acceptance into the program.

Fees • Payment is required at time of registration. Checks or money orders are payable to Treasurer, Arlington County. The registrant’s name, address and phone number must appear on each check. Pursuant to Arlington County Code, an assessment fee of $50 is charged for a returned check. Acceptable charge payments are VISA, MasterCard or Discover. Arlington residents 62 and over receive a 30% discount on the fee shown in the Enjoy Arlington catalog unless otherwise stated.

Reduced Fees • Class fee reductions are available on a sliding scale based on household income and size. Anyone who is an active financial assistance client of Arlington County’s Department of Human Services or APS free/reduced lunch program, as well as others who are below the threshold of the currently published HUD’s Section 8 income limits, may apply for a reduced fee. Annual income verification is required. For application qualifications, guidelines and procedures, call 703-228-4747 or go to the Registration Office (3700 Four Mile Run Dr.), or any of our other fee reduction processing locations on page 20.

Refunds • Refunds will be subject to a $20 administrative fee regardless if the balance remains as a household credit and will be processed within 30 days. No refunds (or credits to your household account) for programs under $20. All refunds must be requested through the Registration Office at 703-228-4747 and all requests should be made 48 hours after the first class. No refunds, credits or transfers after deadline. No refunds or credits if participants are unable to attend a class or one session class or workshop. Credit card charges will be refunded directly to the credit card. Full refunds will be processed within 30 days when classes are canceled by DPR due to insufficient enrollment or other unforeseen reasons, or upon request when schedule or location changes made by DPR prohibit or limit your attendance. Refunds for medical reasons must be accompanied by a physician’s note and shall be considered on a case by case basis. Materials fees are non-refundable.

Please note that if you choose a household credit, you should use it for other programs within one year. We are required by Virginia law to turn that credit over to the state if you have not given us explicit direction on what to do with the credit. We will contact you during that timeframe, but it is always simplest to just use the credit when you need it! If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected].

Requesting Accommodations • Arlington County is committed to providing open and accessible programs to all of our residents. If you require a reason-able accommodation, for a disability please call 703-228-4740 or email [email protected]. Advanced notice is preferred.

Changes, Cancellations and Closings • Classes may be cancelled for a variety of reasons: low enrollment, on County holidays, in case of storms or other dangerous conditions, or at the discretion of the instructor. County-wide cancel-ations will be broadcast on www.arlingtonva.us/dpr, DPR Facebook, DPR Twitter, DPR eNews, Channel 74 (Comcast Cable) and at 703-228-4715. Please keep your household contact information up to date as we use this information to contact you directly if classes are cancelled. We will contact you one-week prior to the start date if a class is canceled due to low enrollment. Due to the early publica-tion deadline, instructors may be changed before classes begin.

High Demand Classes • High Demand classes are indicated with an HD beside the class name, and they fill up very quickly; we encourage you to have alternate session choices in mind, and enroll in the waitlist. Programmers use this information, Non-residents pay a $25 additional fee to help ensure spots for Arlington residents.

Age Exemptions • Exemptions to the ages listed in the catalog must be approved by the instructor at least one week in advance.  Verify the dates of birth of all registrants prior to registration, and please do not enter an incorrect date of birth in order to bypass an age restriction. Participants who fall outside the age requirements for a class will be removed without refund. Administrative fees may apply.
