Register Online Today!

Register for programs and classes from the comfort of your own home or office, using
the convenience of your PC or laptop. Mobile device registration capability will be com-
ing soon!

By registering online, you have first access to classes over walk-
in or mail-in registration options. ActiveNet is an online registration
service that is available 24 hours a day. You can view and select
classes, make payments, and review your current registrations.
You can also view your family account history.

Flat Rate Processing Fee
We want to make our activities accessible and affordable to as
many people as possible. For this reason, we moved away from
the variable convenience fee to a $2.50 flat rate processing fee,
which will result in a cost savings for you when you register online.

To register online, follow these three easy steps by going to:

‘www.belmont.gov’, ‘Parks & Recreation’,

1. SIGN-UP FOR AN ACCOUNT

Select ‘Request Account’ and fill out the form to get registered. You will need a credit
card (American Express, Discover, MasterCard or Visa) and a working email address.

2. SELECT YOUR ACTIVITY or CLASS

You can browse through the alphabetical list of classes, or search for one from our
Activity Guide, either on www.belmont.gov > Parks & Rec > Activity Guide or your bro-
chure mailed to your home. Then, add it to your shopping cart.

3. CHECKOUT TO FINISH

View your ‘cart’ to see the activity(s) you’ve chosen, then click ‘checkout’ to register for
these activities. You’ll be asked to identify the family member participating and where
you heard about the activity. After seeing the costs for the activities, you’ll be asked for
your credit card information. Enter your information, click continue… and you’re done!
You can print out your receipt. That’s it. You are now enrolled and ready to enjoy the
class!

PLEASE REGISTER EARLY- CLASSES DO CLOSE IF THEY REACH MAXIMUM
ENROLLMENT, OR CAN BE CANCELED IF ENROLLMENT IS TOO LOW.
