Non-residents can register for classes starting September 13 if space is available. A resident is one who lives in Essex Town or Village. All others are considered non-residents. If a class is cancelled during a session the department will make every effort to schedule a make up class. If re-scheduling a class is not possible refunds will not be issued for that class.
Programs cancelled by the department receive a full refund or full credit towards another program.
Refunds or credits are granted only when notified one week prior to the start of the program. It is the policy of the Recreation Department that no resident of the town or village shall be refused participation in a program or the use of facilities because of an inability to pay. The raccoon strain of rabies has been confirmed in Chittenden County. During your summer outdoor activities, please enjoy wildlife from a healthy distance. Don't feed or pet any wild animals.
