REMAINDER OF SPRING TERM CANCELLED
April 20, 2020: The safety of THPRD guests, staff and community is our top priority. Due to this, the remainder of the 2020 Spring Term at Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District has been cancelled. THPRD had previously cancelled and refunded program fees through April 28, to match the Governor’s original school closure date. However, with the Stay Home, Save Lives Order now in effect, and based on the information from state public health authorities, the district has now officially cancelled the full spring term which runs through early June.
• Spring Fees to be Refunded: Patrons originally received partial refunds for the spring term. Now, with the full spring term cancelled, patrons will receive refunds for all remaining class and program fees paid through early June. Please be patient as we process those refunds. We expect to have them complete in early May. Payment will be credited back to the original form of payment, so if you paid on debit or credit card, please review your statement for the credit.
• Summer registration date will be rescheduled: Summer registration will be rescheduled. We do not have a new date to share yet. As the COVID-19 outbreak is a public health priority, we will wait to reschedule summer registration to a future date, when we have better information about the duration of the pandemic and its effect on facility closures. We hope to announce plans for summer registration around mid-May, please monitor the district’s website www.thprd.org for the latest information or sign-up to receive emailed Tualatin Hills Today updates on the website.
• Summer programming: Staff are working to develop realistic plans for summer programming. Our goal is to return to offering summer camps and classes as quickly as we safely can, complying with state law and guidance from public health authorities. We expect when THPRD does reopen, it will be a staggered opening, with only a few sites opening at first. The best source for information will be the district’s website www.thprd.org.
