REGISTRATION IS ON SATURDAY, MAY 2 @ 9AM!
Registration for Solon Rec After-School Program, SCA Arts4Kids, and Kindergarten Club will begin on Saturday, May 2 at 9:00am. Regis-
tration will be available online and you are HIGHLY encouraged by both facilities to take advantage of this service. Staff will be at both the
Community Center and Solon Center for the Arts that morning to take enrollment in person. However, keeping in mind that registration
is first come-first served, registering online may be quicker and will help to ensure that you don’t get blocked out of either program.
Step 1: Create your account on MaxGalaxy. If you haven’t done so yet, please log into http://solonrec.maxgalaxy.net (for Recreation and
Solon Center for the Arts). Make sure you put a parent/guardian as the primary account holder and then add all family members at the
bottom. You will need to enter your child’s CURRENT grade. Recreation and SCA share the database, so you only need to create one
account! If you forgot your password, please contact us for help to reset it.
Step 2:You will need to purchase a FREE 2020-2021 After School REC & SCA (membership). This is located under the AF-
TER SCHOOL REC & SCA tab under MEMBERSHIPS. This is solely our way of collecting all of the necessary important information
about each child. Again, this is FREE. Please fill out all the questions in their fullest, especially in regards to medical info, emergency
contacts and authorized pick-ups. (This is not a membership for use of the Community Center.)
Step 3: On May 2 at 9:00am, our system will open in-house and online for registration. You will be able to register for both Rec-
reation and Art Center together for after-school activities. Make sure you sign up for ALL SESSIONS and ALL DAYS that you will
require. Make sure you get all the extras, such as Arts4Kids Extended Care or Kindergarten Club Extended Care.
Step 4: When registering online, you will be given the option to pay in full or use the payment schedule. If you choose the payment
schedule, you will only be charged 10% of your registrations on that day. The balances will be automatically withdrawn from your
credit card on the due dates listed. If you pay in-house, you will also have the option for a payment schedule, but will need to allow
us to store your credit card information for payment usage.
The 10% payment on your registration day is NON-REFUNDABLE and NON-TRANSFERABLE. If you drop a day/session or
change a day/session, you will lose your 10% deposit.
The Solon Recreation will, once again, be
offering the very popular After-school
