Policies & Procedures

HOUSEHOLD INFORMATION FORM
Our registration system requires a HOUSEHOLD INFORMATION FORM to be on file. If you do not have an updated form on file, you will need to fill out the form and provide proof of residency. Forms are available online on this website (see About Us, Forms) and at the Recreation Center. Once the information has been submitted and entered into the system, you will be able to register.

NON-RESIDENT REGISTRATION

For non-residents of Huntington Woods, registration begins approximately 2 weeks after resident registration (please see specific activities for exact dates and eligibility).  Unless otherwise noted, an additional $5/activity and $10/household sports league (baseball, basketball, pillo polo and/or floor hockey) fee is added for non-residents. An annual $50 facility fee is assessed to all non-residents participating in Latchkey, Fruit Camps, select Specialty Camps, Preschool, indoor Pickleball, and/or the swim team. These fees are in place to equalize the tax burden borne by Huntington Woods Residents. An additional 25% fee is charged for Latchkey and 10% fee is charged for Fruit Camp, Preschool Program and the Swim Team.

INCLEMENT WEATHER/SCHOOL CLOSING POLICY
When Berkley Schools are closed because of inclement weather, all daytime recreation classes will also be cancelled. Please call the Recreation Center after 4:00 pm regarding evening classes. Every attempt will be made to make up all cancelled classes. There will be no refunds for weather-related cancellations that cannot be added to the end of the session. 

CLASS CANCELLATIONS
Classes are subject to cancellation if the minimum number of participants is not achieved by the scheduled class start date.  If cancellation is necessary due to low registration, registrants will be notified via email and a full refund will be issued to their household accounts.  A refund check will be provided if requested.
