Friday, February 24, 2023

(Washington, DC) – Today, Mayor Muriel Bowser and the DC Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) announced that registration for the 2023 Spring Programs will begin on Wednesday, March 1 for aquatics programs and Thursday, March 2 for all other programs. Registration opens at noon on both days.

DPR programs offered this spring include:

  • Aquatics programs, including learn to swim, aquatic fitness, senior aquatics, water polo and lifeguard instruction.

  • Team sports and athletics, including soccer, kickball, volleyball, gymnastics, baseball/softball/tee-ball, pickleball, tennis, and flag football.

  • Out-of-school time programs like DC Public Schools (DCPS) Fun Day (March 10) and DCPS spring break camp (April 18 – 21).

  • Additional activities include fitness programs, senior programming, dance, candle-making, music, and movie nights.

Registration for spring programming is available on a first-come, first-serve basis and DPR will utilize a virtual “waiting room” on both program registration days in order to manage the high demand for programs.

DPR Spring Program registration opens:

  • Noon on Wednesday, March 1 for aquatics programs ONLY.

  • Noon on Thursday, March 2 for all other spring programs.
