Answers to FAQs For Online Registration Customers

Q: How do I add someone on to a waitlist for an activity?
A: To add yourself or your child to a wait list if an activity is full. Simply click on the activity name and then "add to wait list." If openings become available, those on the wait list are notified by phone in order of position on the list. Those who respond within the specified time are added to the class roster. If we do not receive your registration within the specified time, your place in the class is forfeited and the next person on the wait list is notified.
Q: How many accounts should each family have?
A: We recommend that each family establish a primary account with login credentials. Create the account in the name of a head of household and then add all family member names underneath the head of household after it has been established.
Q: What is your photo policy?
A: Attendance at City of Hillsboro facilities, programs, and events sponsored by the City of Hillsboro may be digitally recorded through photographs or video recordings. Community members who do not want to be photographed or recorded are responsible for removing themselves (or their children) from the area in which photographing or recording is occurring. If you see a camera operator, notify them of your preference to opt-out of photography and videography.
Q: How do I create my Customer Account?
A: If you have registered with us in the past, you may already have a Login Name and Password and should either use our Forgot My Password functionality to retrieve your information or contact us.

Q: How do I add family members to my account?
A: You may add family members by contacting any of our facilities during regular business hours.

Q: Can I view Activities without registering?

Q: How do I register for an Activity?
A: Once your account has been established, registration for Activities is easy:

*Please Note: If more than one family member will be attending the Activity, click on the button labeled, Add Another One (located under the Shopping Cart screen).

Q: What happens if I have an outstanding balance or credit on my account?
A: Outstanding balances should be paid in full prior to registering for an activity. If you have a credit on your account, you may choose to apply that credit to your current transaction. If the credit on your account is large enough to cover your current transactions, you will not be required to make a payment.
Q: What will happen if I try to register for an Activity that is full?
A: Your name will be placed on a waiting list. You will be contacted in the event that a space opens for that Activity or additional Activities are added. If we are unable to contact you, your space will be given to the next customer on the waiting list.

If you do not want to be placed on the waiting list, click the Remove button that appears on the Shopping Cart screen.

*Please Note: Placement on a waiting list does not guarantee a spot in the Activity.
Q: How can I view a schedule of my family's upcoming scheduled Activities?
A: The My Account feature allows you to view a weekly schedule of your family's upcoming Activities.

Sign into your account and click on the My Account link. Then click on the Show Your Daily Schedule link. Highlight the family members whose schedules you would like to view and click on the top arrow button and move each family member over to the Selected Family Members column. Click on Search to proceed. A weekly schedule will display all of the activities your family members have been enrolled in and allow you to click on the activity for more information.

All credit card transactions are encrypted and secure.
