Adventure Awaits… “As soon as I saw you, I knew an adventure was going to happen.” —Winnie the Pooh Have you ever had that feeling that just told you the next step you took was going to be an exciting and potentially risky move? Well my friends that is an adventure waiting for you to dive in and do something. All it takes is a little childlike innocence, courage, wonder and trust that this experience will be like no other. You don’t need fancy clothes or a fedora like Indiana Jones or even balloons to lift you and your house. You just need to know that adventure is out there, waiting for you. You can find a few through the Town’s Recreation and Arts programs. If you’re not sure which to participate in, I invite you to explore this activity guide and see what gives you that little bit of excitement. I also encourage you to bring a friend because life is meant for good friends and great adventures! Enjoy the ride!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Where can I take swim lessons? The Town of Danville offers its Learn to Swim Program at two locations: Monte Vista Community Pool at 3131 Stone Valley Road, and San Ramon Valley High School Pool at 501 Danville Blvd. When do I register? Online registration for incorporated Danville residents only will be available Monday, February 21, 8:30 am. Open registration begins Tuesday, February 22, 8:30 am. How do I register? Online: Register online by setting up and logging into your account at www.danvillerecguide.com. We encourage you to set up your account prior to the registration date. This will ensure that you receive the lessons you want more quickly. For assistance, call (925) 314-3400. Mail-In: Danville Community Center, Attn: Class Registrations, 420 Front Street, Danville, CA 94526 How do I select my child's class level? Read the class descriptions in the order listed. Register your child for the first class level that describes skills that s/he has not yet mastered. Call 314-3400 for additional assistance. Will classes be held in the rain? Generally, classes will be held during inclement weather. However, the pool will be closed and classes cancelled if there is lightning. What happens if my child passes the class, but I registered him for the same level next session? If there is space available, your child will be transferred to the correct level. Is it possible to make up a class that my child missed due to illness or vacation? Unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate class make-ups. Can I request a specific teacher? You can make a request for a specific instructor, but realize that our swim instructors rotate between different pools, class levels and times. Due to the large number of classes we offer, we cannot guarantee we can meet your request, but we will try our best. I am an adult. Can I take lessons? Yes! We offer private adult swim lessons at various times throughout the day at Monte Vista Community Pool. See page 13.

RESIDENCY STATUS CLARIFICATION
COURSE CANCELLATION
The program and facility fees cover a large portion of the actual costs, though Town of Danville residents also partially support the classes, events and facilities through their property tax assessments. Because of this, those program participants and individuals reserving Town facilities who live outside of Danville pay an additional non-resident charge. If you have any questions about this information, call 314-3400.
When registration falls below the minimum enrollment required, it may be necessary to cancel a class or program. At the time of cancellation, the Town will initiate a full refund. Check refunds may take 4–6 weeks.
PHOTO/VIDEO LIABILITY DISCLOSURE Photographs and video may be taken of participants during a class or program, and these photographs and video may be used for Town of Danville publicity purposes.
RAINOUTS AND CLASS MAKE-UPS Whenever possible, make-ups will be given on those occasions when inclement weather or instructor illness requires that a class be cancelled. See instructor at next scheduled meeting for make-up date.
Those living outside the Danville Town limits include residents of the communities of Alamo and Diablo, and Alamo Creek, Bettencourt Ranch, Blackhawk, Bryan Ranch, Monterosso, Shadow Creek and Whitegate housing developments.
Special Notice to Alamo Residents living in the Alamo County Service Area R-7A: all R-7A residents are eligible to register for Town-sponsored programs scheduled at Hap Magee Ranch Park during the resident registration period. Non-resident fees still apply for these classes and activities. Call 314-3400 for more information.
No refunds (whole or partial) can be given for classes missed by the student.
WAITLISTS Waitlists will be created once a class has reached maximum enrollment. If space becomes available, you will be called.
WITHDRAWALS (CREDITS/REFUNDS) Requests for withdrawal will be honored if requested no later than five business days prior to the first day of the class. There will be a $5 processing fee assessed for each activity withdrawal. Requests made less than five business days prior to the first day of class must be submitted in writing and will be considered on an individual basis. A $20 processing fee will be charged for processing refunds made by check. We do not provide cash refunds. Withdrawals for sports leagues may be approved if a team can be replaced before the first game.
