Due to the current border crossing regulations, the Easton Recrea-
tion Department is strongly encouraging children to get a passport
card. You can apply for the card at Presque Isle or Mars Hill Post
Office. The approximate cost is $60.
Children may still cross the border (without a passport, on a school
bus) with a certified birth certificate (one that is stamped by the
town clerk and on official paper) and a permission slip. You must
get your child’s birth certificate at the Town Office/City Hall in the
town where your child was born.
Another option is to take a certified copy of your child’s birth
certificate to any USA Border Crossing & an agent will copy and
stamp with their seal.
Adults MUST have a Passport or Passport card in order to cross the
border since June 1, 2009.
All children and adults will have to show proof before boarding the
bus for trips that cross the Canadian border. Thank you for your
cooperation with this matter!
Reminder: Registrations should be sent back to the
Rec. Department via the school or dropped off at the
Town Office at your earliest convenience. If you
would like to register in person, please schedule with
Hillary. Payments must be received with your
registration form unless other arrangements have
been made. Please keep this book until the
beginning of November.

Registration Information
A registration form is included in the back of this booklet,
please return it at your first convenience to the school or the
Town Office. Some programs are right around the corner,
so time is of the essence. A release form must be on file for
ALL participants.
Payments should be made for all programs at the time of
registration. Some programs have a minimum/maximum
number of participants. A child will not be considered en-
rolled in a program until payment is made in full, unless other
arrangements have been made.
Please make checks payable to the Town of Easton.
If you would prefer to do registration in person,
please schedule a time to meet with Hillary by
calling 551-7737 or email [email protected].
Program Times
It is essential parents know the time a program begins and ends
so arrangements are made to have the child picked up on time.
Since we are a one-person department and the many programs
offered, there is often little or no time between activities. Please
do your very best to have your child picked up on time!
Discipline
If your child misbehaves or is not listening to our Recreation
Director or parent/high school volunteers while participating in
any program, the following actions will be taken:
1st Warning - Verbal warning and director will be notified.
2nd Warning - Child will be removed for the remainder of the
activity.
3rd Warning - Parent will be notified & the child may not
participate in the next scheduled day of that program.

TEE-SHIRTS
It has become a tradition to
purchase a tee-shirt as a
memento but they also serve
as a safety precaution. When
in a large group, it is very help-
ful to have all the children
(staff, parents, volunteers, etc.)
dressed in the same color to
easily keep track of everyone.
Many of you already have a tee
-shirt from this summer but if
your child does not, it is
strongly recommended that
you purchase a tee-shirt (or
two) if your child will be at-
tending field trips and outings
throughout Harvest Recess.
These are available in both
youth & adult sizes. This
year’s tee-shirt is red with a
white logo (as seen on right).
Shirts are in-stock and can be
purchased at the Town Office.
There are also a few tank tops
remaining in adults sizes. Quantities & sizes are limited.
The cost is $10.
Sizes Available
Youth X-Small 4-6
Youth Small 6-8
Youth Medium 10-12
Youth Large 14-16
Adult Small Adult Medium
