Spring/Summer 2018 Registration Information REFUNDS Ossining Recreation does NOT issue refunds unless a pro-gram has been canceled due to insufficient registration. Registrants assume full responsibility for any changes in their personal life which may affect their ability to partici-pate. In rare cases, a participant may encounter an unforeseea-ble, and unavoidable, situation that may warrant a refund of fees paid. These situations require a refund request to be submitted in writing to the Recreation Department and then reviewed on an individual basis by the Superintendent of Recreation, who will make a final refund determination. A processing fee of $15.00 will be retained by the Village in all cases that refunds, or partial refunds, are granted.

MEDICAL INSURANCE As an applicant for participation in recreation programs offered by the Ossining Recreation & Parks Department, it is extremely important that you are aware that the Town and Village do NOT provide a medical insurance policy for such programs. If you do not have a medical insurance policy, we urge that you secure such a policy before you use any park or enroll in any Recreation Department pro-grams.

All persons participating in Recreation & Parks programs do so at their own risk.

ENROLL EARLY! In order for most of our programs to run, a minimum num-ber of registrations must be reached. Also, many of our programs have a maximum enrollment number as a means of allowing for proper facilitation of the program. To avoid any issues at the time of registration, the best advice is to register early...don’t wait! Please note, pro-grams are at risk of being cancelled if registrations are left to the last minute!

WAIT LIST If a program/class reaches maximum registration, a wait list will be established. The department will make every effort to accommodate those on the wait lists. If any open-ings become available in a program, the names of those on the wait list will be contacted in the order they were re-ceived.

TELL US HOW WE'RE DOING! The Recreation Department is constantly looking for ways to improve existing programs. We want to hear your ideas for creative new programs and/or events that you would like to see. Email us at recreation@villageofossining.org with any ide-as and/or suggestions to be reviewed by our Recreation Staff.

Program & General Information JOSEPH G. CAPUTO COMMUNITY CENTER The Joseph G. Caputo Community Center (Community Center), located at 95 Broadway provides many recreation activities and opportunities for the greater Ossining com-munity. The building is open from 9:00am to 10:00pm Monday through Saturday. The Community Center, which houses the Recreation & Parks Department Offices, includes 3 multi-purpose rooms, a game room, gymnasium and aquatic center. The Town of Ossining Senior Nutrition Center and related program-ming is located on the lower level. Also located in the build-ing is the Ossining Heritage Area Visitors Center, an excel-lent educational exhibit that includes information and dis-plays focused on the Old Croton Aqueduct and the Sing Sing Prison. Ossining-based, non-profit organizations are permitted to use the three multi-purpose rooms in the Community Cen-ter for meetings. An "Application for Use of Bldgs/Grounds" must be submitted to the Recreation Depart-ment at least 10 working days prior to the planned event. Approval will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Priority will be given to Recreation Department programming over outside organizations.

PROGRAM BEHAVIOR Participants are expected to exhibit appropriate behavior at all times while engaging in activities and programs con-ducted by the Recreation & Parks Department. We ask all participants to adhere to the following guidelines so that our programs are safe and enjoyable to all. Additional rules may be developed and implemented for specific pro-grams and athletic leagues as deemed necessary by staff. Participants in Ossining Recreation Department programs shall:

Show respect to all fellow participants, staff members and themselves.

Refrain from using foul or abusive language.

Refrain from causing bodily harm to other participants and staff.

Show respect and care for equipment, supplies and facilities.

Participants who fail to adhere to these basic guidelines will be removed from a program when it is determined by staff that their behavior is detrimental to the safety, well-being or enjoyment of the program by others. The decision to formally remove or suspend a program participant will be made by the Superintendent of Recreation after consulta-tion with program staff as well as the Village Manager.

PROGRAM CANCELLATIONS Programs must sometimes be cancelled due to weather conditions and other situations that occasionally arise. The Recreation Department strives to notify participants of these instances in a timely fashion and utilize such meth-ods as phone calls, e-mail messages and posted notices to the department website. In order to appropriately com-municate this information with registered participants it is very important to provide the Recreation Department with your most current contact information including primary phone number and e-mail address. Generally, programs are not held when school is not in session. Cancelled classes and program sessions are nor-mally made up at the end of the program season and every effort is made to provide participants with full value for the programs they register for. If questions arise on whether a program will be held, please call the Recreation Office at 914-941-3189.

The Spartans Swim Team’s goal is to build a unique aquatics experience for the youth swimmers of the Village/Town of Os-sining and surrounding areas. From swim lessons to our Senior Group, Spartan swimmers learn that the virtues of hard work, discipline, persistence, and team work are necessary ingredients in achieving competitive and personal success. Spartans coaches believe in an all-around athletic experience, encouraging athletes to participate in other sports on both the club and varsity levels. Our fee structure, which is proudly the most affordable in Westches-ter, allows athletes to test their skills in numerous sports, while keeping their swimming and fitness chops honed. This spring Spartans Swimmers will have the opportunity to swim in inter-squad, Rec League and USA Swimming meets. Over the summer, the Spartans will continue its membership in the Northern Westchester Swim Conference and participate at the Westchester “Counties”. Visit the team website for more program details and contact info at www.spartansswimteam.com Try-outs are ongoing throughout the year. Interested swimmers can visit the pool and inquire about scheduling a try-out (Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursdays 4:30-6pm) with Coach Mike, or e-mail him at: coachmike@spartansswimteam.com
