The City of Oshawa yesterday said in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and the closure of facilities, Recreation & Culture Services continues to evaluate its operations and programming for when facilities re-open.
Recognizing that physical distancing and other precautionary measures may still be recommended by local health officials during the summer months, the city has made the decision to limit registrations for the summer program session, including Summer Camps, until further notice, said a statement.
This provides the Ccity with greater flexibility to modify summer program offerings to ensure they are in compliance with any health or government recommendations to reduce the spread of the Covid-19 virus, it said.
Community members who have already completed their registration for a summer program will remain enrolled. Those wishing to register for a summer program or camp will have the option to waitlist for their preferred programming by visiting activeOshawa Online Registration at register.oshawa.ca.
Upon the re-opening of recreation facilities, a member of the Recreation and Culture Services Branch will contact participants on program waitlists to complete the registration process should a space be available. Further information regarding any changes or updates to the summer program session and summer camps will be announced in the coming weeks as more information becomes available regarding the status of facility closures,the statement said.
