Program Fee Assistance | ||||
Wilmot Aquatic Centre will not refuse admission to our Learn to Swim programs due to lack of funds. Please contact the Aquatics Manager for more information. All inquiries are confidential. Fee assistance applications must be submitted 2 weeks prior to the start date of the course. | ||||
Non-Resident/ Ratepayer Fee | ||||
An additional 25% will be charged to the total registration fee for participants who reside outside Wilmot Township. Participants who do not live in the Township but pay taxes to Wilmot Township should bring in their Tax Form when they register, to avoid paying this additional fee. | ||||
Refunds and Withdrawals | ||||
Requests for refunds will be issued up to the third lesson. A 20% administrative fee (to a maximum of $42.00) and the amount will be prorated based on the number of lessons that have passed in the session, not the number of lessons attended.
If the customer decides to leave the financial credit on their account, the 20% administrative fee will be waived. Unused credits will expire after 3 years. |

Transfer Requests | ||||
Class transfers must occur before the start of the 3rd class and will be based on space availability. After the 3rd class, transfers will only be allowed at the Aquatic Managers discretion. |

Absentee Policy | ||||
Students must attend only the class in which they are formally registered. We regret we cannot accommodate requests for makeup classes at other times. | ||||
