Snow & Inclement Weather Policy

Register Early
Pre-registration is required for most classes. Some classes will fill up quickly so early registration will help ensure that you or your child will not be disappointed. Please Note: No first class “on site” registration will be taken by instructors.

Resident or Non-Resident?
A resident is anyone who lives or owns property within the Longview city limits. Even though your mailing address is “Longview”, this does not necessarily mean you are a city resident. Non-residents pay an additional $5 charge per class or program due at the time of registration.

Kelso city residents will receive resident rates for programs at Catlin Center only.

At all other program locations, Kelso residents are charged an out-of-city rate due to the end of the parks and recreation consolidation between the two cities effective December 31, 2004.
