Cancellations If fewer than the minimum participants register for a program or there is inclement weather, an activity may be

cancelled.

For individuals who Self Pay, a credit slip will be issued to be used during the current calendar or for future cal-

endars, within the recreation calendar year. The Recreation calendar year runs from July-June.

For individuals who come through the Supports Program, Self-Directed, or RLC, you may only be able to re-

ceive credit for as long as the service authorization is active.

If you cannot attend any program, you must call Colleen within 48 hours of a scheduled program. If tickets

were purchased for an event, the cost will not be refunded.

Office Hours The Recreation Office hours are 9:00 am – 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Hours may vary

depending on programs. If you’re planning on visiting the Family Support Office, please call before you come to

make sure someone is available to help you. The office phone number is 908-232-0037.

kept up-to-date in order to provide you with the best possible service.

Transportation Not all programs offer transportation. For those that do, seating is limited, and therefore cannot be guaranteed. It is

important to have your registration in on time, along with approved form of payment, you will not be registered for

a program until an approved form of payment has been issued.

No Shows/Lateness No shows at programs jeopardize your participation in future programs. No shows are not eligible for credit. Re-

peated no-shows will be suspended from future programs. Repeated lateness to and from program can also result

in suspension from future programs.

Important Reminders

Public Transportation

Due to the unpredictable pick up and drop off times of public transportations services like Access Link, we

strongly urge against using the services as a way to attend programs. Our program staff are only available the

hours of program and an early drop off/late pick up can result in insufficient coverage, in addition to missing

valuable program time.

Annual PIF Update Upon registering for a recreation program you will receive a PIF update form. Please make sure that it is filled

out in it’s entirety. This form helps us know our participants and support them in the event of an emergency. Upon registering for a recreation program you will receive a PIF update form. Please make sure that it is filled

we do not have a valid PIF on file, an individual will NOT be able to participate in recreation programs.
