Search for Programs & Create a Wish List
You can search and find programs for all ages, interests and skill levels online without having an account. When you find programs you and your family want to join, you can add them to a personalized Wish List after creating your account. You can do this before registration start day and register right from your Wish List.
Adding a program to a Wish List does not confirm a participant’s eligibility or guarantee a space.
You can use the “Where” filter to refine search results to your preferred recreation centres
Using Where and Activity filters
With the Where and Activities filters, you can browse and refine your results to the available activities at your preferred centres, making it easier to find programs within a certain locations or activity category.
If you have selected your preferred recreation centres, only the available programs at the selected centres will show up in the Activities filter – the button right next to Where filter.
Likewise, if you have selected an Activity category in the Activities filter, only the available locations that offer the activity will be shown in the Where filter.
The use of two filters will affect the results of the other, helping you target available activities at available locations.
Using Activity Names/Keywords
Searching with an activity name in the search bar will refine all the search terms related to that activity. Example: “swim, or swimming”.
Only use one activity name at a time.
You can use the Where filter to view the available locations for that activity to find your preferred centres.
You can use the Activity filter to view the available programs within that activity category. Example: “Swim – Youth Ultra Swim 1-3”.
Make sure you clear your search term if you are receiving “No Results” or if you want to search for new programs.
