Registration Information

 

The Village of Palos Park has signed a new agreement with our registration software provider, ACTIVENet, which will result in changes to the fees associated with credit card transactions.

Starting this fall, all credit card transactions will incur a 3.55% processing fee. This fee will be added to the advertised registration fee or rental rate and will also apply to rental security deposits. Please note that payments made with cash or check will not incur this processing fee.

This change will not affect how you register for our programs. For non-online registration, please complete our registration form available below, and drop it off or mail it to the Recreation Center located at 8901 W. 123rd Street in Palos Park. 

For online registration, new users will still create an account with ACTIVENet, while existing users' accounts remain unchanged. Follow THIS LINK to visit our online registration page. 

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we implement this change. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Methods of Payment: Cash, Check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express.
