Program fees are calculated on cost recovery goals and are presented to the Reno City Council on an annual basis. Council approves the fee schedule in May of each year. The fees collected from these programs are not intended for profit. The fees cover the costs of providing necessary supplies and staff to run said programs.

The City of Reno Parks and Recreation Department reserves the right to make cancellations as deemed necessary and refund accordingly.
Scholarships and Fee Assistance
The City of Reno is committed to providing recreational opportunities to all residents regardless of economic circumstances. For this reason, a limited fund fee assistance program is available to those who qualify. If you have wanted to participate in our all-day camps, beforeand-after school programs or qualified classes but couldn’t because of financial circumstances, we encourage you to apply.
Income level, family size, and other criteria determine whether or not fee assistance is awarded. Many families that qualify for a reduced program fee are not taking advantage of the opportunity simply because they haven’t asked to be considered.
For additional information, call Norah or Ping at (775) 334-2260 or visit Reno.Gov/ ParksandRec.
