Can I view activities without registering?

Answer: We recommend using the online activity guide to browse through
all recreation activities—find the guide at denvergov.org/Recreation. You can also browse through activities on our online service center without registering or signing in. Click ‘Activities’ at the top of the webpage to view our offerings. DPR’s online service center can also be found at denvergov.org/Recreation.

What will happen if I try to register for an activity that is full?

Answer: If the activity is full, please add the participant to the ‘Waitlist’.
Staff will contact you if spots become available. You can also check the status of the waitlist by contacting the recreation center where the activity will be held.

My child is younger than the minimum age for an activity. Can I still register them?

Answer: Participants younger than the minimum age listed will need Department approval and must be enrolled by program or recreation center staff—age exceptions cannot be enrolled online. For questions, please contact program or recreation center staff.

I'm receiving incomplete errors and cannot complete the checkout. How should I proceed?

Answer: Ensure the browser you are using is Google Chrome (recommended) or Internet Explorer on a laptop/desktop. Safari, Firefox and mobile devices are not fully compatible with DPR’s online service center. Additionally, check that all waivers and questions are completely answered/acknowledged.

What is the difference between 'Save for Later' and 'Waitlist' buttons?

Answer: ‘Save for Later’ bookmarks certain activities into one compiled list.
Adding activities to the ‘Save for Later’ list does not guarantee enrollment.
‘Waitlist’ means the activity is full and not accepting additional participants.
If you interested in an activity that is full, add the participant to the waitlist and staff will contact you if spots become available.

How do I cancel an activity registration?

Answer: Activity cancellations must be completed by Recreation staff. Email PR_OnlineServiceCenter@denvergov.org or contact the recreation center at least seven (7) days prior to the start date of the activity for a full refund. Other refund policies noted on the receipt may apply.
