Our Mission: “Enriching lives through quality programs, experiences, and facilities that preserve the past, provide for the present, plan for the future, and promote the spirit of fun.”

This summer, Parks and Recreation staff is offering a variety of opportunities for all ages through recreational programming, classes, and activities, while striving to provide excellent customer satisfaction at every level.

SUMMER PROGRAM REGISTRATION
Summer program priority registration will be held beginning Monday, May 12, 2008 for Yuma residents and Monday, May 19, 2008 for all other residents and continue throughout the summer. Some programs are limited to the number of participants and will close when program fills. If a class or program you are interested in is full, please ask to be put on a “Wait List”. Wait Lists will be used should vacancies occur or class expansion is feasible. Our summer programs begin June 9, 2008. Various program fees are discounted for qualifying City of Yuma residents. For the purpose of registration, a Yuma resident is defined as any person living within the corporate limits of the City of Yuma.

CHILDREN’S AGE REQUIREMENTS
Age requirements have been established to safely facilitate age appropriate classes. Children must be the appropriate age by the first day of class in order to register – sorry, no exceptions.
