Signing Up for a Program or Activity

Browse, register, and check out in a few steps.

Ready to register? Here's how to find a program and complete your sign-up with Glenview Park District on Rec.

Step 1: Find a program

Browse or search the programs and activities on Glenview Park District’s Rec page (opens in a new tab). Each listing shows the schedule, price, and current status—open, wait list, or full.

Program pages have been rebuilt: you'll see updated program imagery (including a featured image where Glenview Park District has set one), breadcrumbs at the top so you can find your way back to the catalog, and a schedule card that stays with you as you scroll, showing pricing and the registration actions available for that program.

Step 2: Choose a participant

Select the household member you're registering. If they're not listed yet, add them first from your profile. Some programs have age, gender, or residency eligibility rules, so make sure the member's details are complete.

Step 3: Complete any required questions

Answer any forms or eligibility questions attached to the program. Glenview Park District can also require certain profile details—things like contact information, a birthday, emergency contacts or a profile photo—to be filled in before you can continue. If anything is missing, an alert tells you what still needs completing. Tip: if you used Fast Track ahead of time, these are already done.

Step 4: Add to cart and check out

Add the program to your cart, review your order, and complete payment to confirm your spot. If any required profile details or forms are still outstanding, you'll be prompted to finish those before you can pay. You'll be able to view your registration and receipt in your account afterward.

If a program is full

You can join the wait list. If a spot opens up, you'll be notified. Wait list decisions and how spots are offered are managed by Glenview Park District.

Where automated wait list offers are in use, an offer arrives as a registration link—by email, and by text message if Glenview Park District has that turned on. Offers go out in wait list order, and the link expires at the end of the claim window set for that program. If you don't claim your spot before it expires, the offer passes to the next person on the list, so register as soon as you can.

You can also see your place in line: your wait list position is shown on the registration, schedule and booking pages.

Questions about a specific program—its content, schedule, eligibility, or when it opens—are best answered by Glenview Park District directly. For help with the registration or checkout process itself, Rec support is here to help.
