After I receive my Financial Aid funds, how do I register?
Funds may be used for general programs and classes, plot fees for the community gardens and affiliated recreational youth sports leagues. Fee waivers cannot be used for facility rentals, birthday parties, third-party programs, competitive youth sports leagues, private lessons, childcare when guardians travel off-site, or the purchase of items (goggles, swim caps, towels.)
If you plan to use your funds to register your child for an affiliated recreational youth sports league the parent or legal guardian will need to follow that organization’s enrollment procedures. THPRD does not enroll individuals in affiliated sports programs.
To sign up for classes and activities online, go to www.thprd.org or if you need support, call our main phone line 503-645-6433.
