Time to plan for summer camps
Fun in the sun and camp memories await. Summer camp registration will begin at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, April 23, and community members are encouraged to be prepared.
The City of Oshawa recognizes that during registration, due to an increase in user demand and the volume of requests to the website, users may experience a delay. To better serve you, the City has taken proactive steps, including adding system capacity and implementing a website queue when visiting activeOshawa Online. These changes will help manage high traffic demands on program registration days and improve the user experience.
Be prepared
Community members are encouraged to visit Oshawa.ca/Camps to learn about our summer camp options. Registration will be available online and in person. Although phone-in registration is not an option, Service Oshawa is available to assist with questions about the registration process.
Online registration
Community members are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the activeOshawa Online registration portal before summer camp registration begins. For registration assistance, visit our activeOshawa Online Help for tips and resources.
Here’s how you can be prepared for online registration:
- If you do not have an activeOshawa account, create a new account
- If you have forgotten your password, request a password reset
- If you have an existing activeOshawa account but have not activated it online, activate your account
- If you plan to register your child(ren) or family members for programs, log in to your account and update or add your family group under “My Groups” If you need to update your email address, email active[email protected]
During peak registration periods, successfully completed registrations will show under My Courses under the pending courses filter and will result in a credit appearing on your account until your invoice is created and sent. Invoices for confirmation of registration and payment will take several hours to be received. Once your invoice has been created, the credit on your account will be allocated to your invoice, and your registrations will then show under My Courses under the current and future courses filter. If you do not have a credit appearing on your account for the amount of the course(s), please email active[email protected] immediately.
Online payment options include MasterCard, American Express, Visa, and Visa debit. Debit, MasterCard debit, and American Express debit are not accepted payment options.
