If your question is not answered in the FAQs below, please email us at info@fhprd.org.

Why are some of the facility reservations in your SignUpGenius account already full when I go online to make a reservation?
Due to capacity limitations set in the more restrictive public health orders, the number of reservations we are able to accept for our activities is extremely limited. With these limited reservations, we have experienced a higher number of no-shows. To lessen this issue and better serve our patrons, we have reduced advanced reservations from 7 days to 3 days. Advanced 3-day reservations apply only to gymnasium, track, pool and cardio/weight room visits. As conditions change, we will assess advanced reservations and alter them accordingly.

Do reservation spots in SignUpGenius ever open up?
Yes, sometimes they do. Check back regularly for openings to the facility use or class you are interested in attending.
Reminder: Patrons are in control of their reservation slot. We kindly ask all our patrons if they need to cancel a reservation to do so within 24 hours of the start time. This will release any cancelled spot(s), opening them up online for others to book and enjoy.

I/my family purchased a pass to use the facilities.  What is happening with my pass?  An email was sent to passholders on Tuesday, May 26, 2020 detailing our plan for a fair and equitable process because of the forced closure of our facilities. This process applied to the following types of passes: Annual Pass (premier, standard and Masters Swim), 3-Month Pass, Active Options Pass, School Year Value Pass and Insurance-Based Programs: SilverSneakers, Silver&Fit and Renew Active.  You can read the email and details here.  If you did not receive an email, it means your email is invalid in our system.  Please reach out to Kelly at krodriguez@fhprd.org or 303-409-2337 and we will be happy to update your contact information so you receive future communications regarding important updates to your account.

My family was signed up for a class during your March-May 2020 closure – what happened to my class payment?  Our programming staff communicated by e-mail regarding programs in which your family were registered.  Classes that started prior to the March 14 facility closures were pro-rated and credited back to your registration account in CommunityPass.  Classes that were never held were fully credited back to your registration account in CommunityPass.

Are you currently accepting shelter rentals?  Yes, as long as the gathering size does not exceed current public health orders and that everyone follows social distancing protocols.  New in 2021, shelter rentals at Clement Park, Easton Regional Park and Schaefer Athletic Complex are available online!  Review park rental information and secure a shelter rental.

Are you accepting job applications? Due to COVID-19 related facility closures, we have a limited amount of positions available for employment, view open positions. Additional positions will be added when we resume operations and have more work available.
