MAIL-INS; WALK-INS; DROP-OFFS & NON-RESIDENTS START MAY 16 (If space remains) Please realize that a program may already be filled by online registrations.
Send / bring COMPLETED form (click below) & a check payable: "Town of Norwell", Recreation, P.O. Box 295, Norwell, MA 02061. Visit our office at 345 Main St. on Mon-Thurs; 9a-2p. "Drop Offs" are possible anytime by using the gray drop box on the circular drive at the front of the Town Offices.
How to watch a good program die! ALL Programs have limits & DEADLINES, so don't delay! The DEADLINE FOR ALL SUMMER ACTIVITIES IS MAY 23, unless otherwise noted or already filled. If programs do not have the minimum numbers by deadlines, it could be cancelled. If programs have minimum numbers but are not full, registrations will continue but please do not delay to long! Great programs take
advance planning!
CANCELLATIONS, WITHDRAWALS & REFUNDS: All refund requests must be in writing (email is ok at: recreation@townofnorwell.net). Full refunds (except the online service fee) will be issued if a program is full, cancelled by Norwell Rec or if you withdraw before the May 23 deadline. After May 23, participants withdrawing at least 2 full weeks before the program begins will receive a refund minus a $10 processing fee provided a waitlist person fills the spot and / or the minimum participation level has been achieved. No other refunds will be given as program expenses (instructors and supplies) will have already been incurred. Service fees are not refundable.
We'll email cancellations or post on on our website when possible. Summer refunds requiring a "town" ckeck may be submitted at the end of the season to minimize the paperwork costs. Refunds to credit cards are more efficient than "town refund checks" .
Registrations are accepted on a first-paid, first served basis to Norwell residents. Sorry, no phone reservations. Credit cards are only accepted online - not in the office. Late registrations must pay full fees, no pro-rating.
Confirmations? Online registrations receive confirmation, receipt by email & you may access your family schedule at "My Account" online. Please check / click on your email receipts links carefully & note all information on your calendar.
TERMS USED: "Transaction" confirmation emails are autogenerated and can include any of the following business transactions: "Enroll" means You Got In the Activity, "Wait List" means You Are Not In the Activity (it's Full but You are On a Wait List & you paid no fee if wait listed), or "Refund" means you withdrew before deadlines or the program was cancelled, or you withdrew too late to receive a refund. If you are on a wait list, we will call when an opening becomes available. Please do not show up at the activity until you are enrolled and paid.
Office sign-ups are confirmed if an email address is given (& legible) Otherwise, we do not send confirmations. You are enrolled upon our receipt of your payment & form. We will notify you if a program is full, cancelled or there is a problem with your registration or a change to the activity. Please note all information on your calendar!
