Registration Information<br />
This brochure provides a description of programs, facilities <strong>and</strong><br />
special events offered for Winter 2013 by the Town of North<br />
Castle Recreation & Parks Department. Most classes have a<br />
limited availability <strong>and</strong> are offered on a first-come, first-served<br />
basis. Therefore, early registration is encouraged. Programs<br />
may be cancelled due to insufficient registration.<br />
Registration by mail will begin Monday 12/3. Please do not<br />
mail any registration before 12/3; registrations postmarked<br />
earlier than 12/3 will be held <strong>and</strong> will be processed at the end<br />
of the 2nd day of registration, reducing your chances of getting<br />
into the program of your choice. The mailing address of<br />
the North Castle Recreation & Parks Department is 40 Maple<br />
Avenue, Armonk, NY 10504.<br />
Registration in person will begin Tuesday 12/11 between the<br />
hours of 8:30am <strong>and</strong> 4:30pm at the Hergenhan Recreation<br />
Center. No phone-in registrations will be accepted. Use one<br />
registration card per person, per program. Payment in full must<br />
accompany registrations, with separate checks for each program<br />
registration. Make checks payable to North Castle<br />
Recreation. We do not currently accept credit cards. Program<br />
fees will not be prorated, <strong>and</strong> program registrations are not<br />
transferable to another person. If you have any questions or<br />
concerns about our programs or facilities, please call our office<br />
at 273-3325.<br />
Town residents are those who live within the hamlets of<br />
Banksville, Armonk <strong>and</strong> North White Plains <strong>and</strong> pay taxes to<br />
the Town. The programs of North Castle Recreation<br />
Department are also made available to those residing within<br />
the Byram Hills School District, yet outside Town boundaries.<br />
In many cases, School District residents are required to pay a<br />
slightly higher “non-resident” fee than Town residents;<br />
although they are given equal priority in the registration<br />
process. If there are still openings in programs after Town <strong>and</strong><br />
School District residents have had an opportunity to register,<br />
the Department will consider non-resident applications, at a<br />
higher fee on a per program basis.<br />
Senior residents are any Town residents age 60 years or older.<br />
Senior residents can register for most Adult programs at roughly<br />
a 20% reduced rate.<br />
Notification of acceptance into a program will be made by<br />
email. If the registrant does not have an email address on file,<br />
notification will be by regular mail. Incomplete registrations will<br />
be “tagged” <strong>and</strong> the participant called. Places on rosters will<br />
be held for 48 hours only. If you believe you’ve received no<br />
notification by the start of the program, please call our office.<br />
Transportation to <strong>and</strong> from <strong>recreation</strong> programs is the responsibility<br />
of the participant or parent/guardian unless otherwise<br />
noted. For afterschool programs, children in Grades 1 <strong>and</strong><br />
above may ride the Activity Bus available by the Byram Hills<br />
School District to programs in Armonk, <strong>and</strong> children in Valhalla<br />
Schools can ride the school bus which stops at the North<br />
Castle Community Center in North White Plains for Kidz Club.<br />
Byram Hills Activity Bus permission forms are found on the<br />
2<br />
school website or at the Hergenhan Recreation Center <strong>and</strong><br />
must be returned to the Recreation Department prior to the<br />
start of any program. No child may ride the Activity Bus without<br />
having this form on file with the Recreation Department.<br />
The parent/guardian must call the Recreation Department if<br />
their child(ren) will not be attending their program on a given<br />
day that they are registered.<br />
THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT FOLLOWS THE SCHOOL<br />
CALENDARS; IF THERE IS A HALF DAY OF SCHOOL OR<br />
NO SCHOOL, THERE ARE NO PROGRAMS IN MOST<br />
CASES. PLEASE CALL THE HOTLINE FOR UP-TO-THE-<br />
MINUTE INFORMATION; 273–3325 x1. Programs are not<br />
held if a religious holiday falls on a Saturday. Programs are also<br />
not held the Saturday before or after a vacation week.<br />
WEATHER CANCELLATION POLICY<br />
In the case of a two hour delay at the Byram Hills Schools,<br />
pre-school, youth <strong>and</strong> adult <strong>recreation</strong> programs held prior to<br />
12 noon at Hergenhan Recreation Center <strong>and</strong> other locations in<br />
Armonk will be cancelled. Similarly, in the case of a two hour<br />
delay at Valhalla Schools, pre-school, youth <strong>and</strong> adult <strong>recreation</strong><br />
programs held prior to 12 noon at the North Castle<br />
Community Center in North White Plains will be cancelled.<br />
If Byram Hills Schools are closed for the day, all pre-school,<br />
youth <strong>and</strong> adult programs throughout the day in Armonk will<br />
be cancelled. When Valhalla Schools are closed for the day,<br />
pre-school, youth <strong>and</strong> adult programs at NCCC in North White<br />
Plains will be cancelled except possibly for Open Gym in the<br />
evenings at NCCC. If we are able to get sidewalks <strong>and</strong> the<br />
parking lot cleared <strong>and</strong> a staff person to work, we will have regularly<br />
scheduled Open Gym time. You must call the Recreation<br />
hotline phone number for the decision at 273-3325 x1.<br />
Furthermore, if any non-Town program or group reserved a<br />
space at Hergenhan Recreation Center or NCCC <strong>and</strong> the<br />
respective school districts are closed as above, those scheduled<br />
meetings or functions will also be cancelled under the same<br />
terms as above. We will gladly work with you to reschedule your<br />
function at another mutually convenient time.<br />
For senior citizen drop-in <strong>activities</strong> at Hergenhan Recreation<br />
Center <strong>and</strong> NCCC, our policy is different. The Recreation staff<br />
will make a decision each Monday <strong>and</strong> Thursday morning<br />
regarding Hergenhan <strong>and</strong> each Wednesday <strong>and</strong> Friday morning<br />
regarding NCCC. Senior Director Liz Thomas will deliver<br />
a phone message for all seniors on our contact list indicating<br />
if the drop-in <strong>center</strong> is closed <strong>and</strong> transportation is cancelled.<br />
Everyone else should call the senior citizen office<br />
phone, 273-2944, for a recorded message. Should it begin to<br />
snow <strong>and</strong> stick during the day, Joyce will drive the seniors home<br />
early <strong>and</strong> the drop-in <strong>center</strong> will close.<br />
On weekends, there will be a recorded message on our hotline<br />
phone number after 8:00am indicating if programs are<br />
cancelled. Please call 273-3325 x1.
Registration Information<br />
REFUND POLICY<br />
The Recreation Department does not issue refunds unless a program<br />
has been cancelled due to insufficient registration.<br />
Registrants assume full responsibility for any changes in their personal<br />
life, which may affect their ability to participate. In rare<br />
cases, a participant may encounter an unforeseeable, <strong>and</strong><br />
unavoidable situation that they feel may warrant a refund of fees<br />
paid. These situations will be reviewed on an individual basis by<br />
the Recreation Superintendent, who will then make a refund<br />
determination.<br />
‰ All claims for refunds must be requested in writing.<br />
‰ A $15.00 processing fee will be retained by the Town in<br />
all cases that refunds, partial refunds or program section<br />
transfers are granted.<br />
‰ Refunds will be prorated based on the time attended the<br />
class.<br />
‰ There is an additional charge of $20.00 on all returned<br />
checks.<br />
HOW TO WATCH A GOOD<br />
PROGRAM BE ELIMINATED<br />
Nothing eliminates a <strong>recreation</strong> program faster than residents<br />
who wait until the last minute to register. There is a<br />
point when a program must be cancelled or modified if<br />
there is insufficient registration. All programs require a high<br />
level of coordination, often including facility scheduling,<br />
staffing, volunteer recruitment <strong>and</strong> purchasing of supplies.<br />
PLEASE REGISTER EARLY!<br />
MEDICAL INSURANCE<br />
As an applicant for participation in <strong>recreation</strong> programs<br />
sponsored by the Town of North Castle, it is extremely<br />
important that you are aware that the Town DOES NOT provide<br />
medical insurance in such programs. If you do not have<br />
a personal medical insurance policy, we urge that you secure<br />
one prior to enrolling in any programs. PERSONS PARTICI-<br />
PATE AT THEIR OWN RISK AND SHOULD MAKE CERTAIN<br />
THEY HAVE THEIR OWN INSURANCE.<br />

the Town of North Castle website www.NorthCastleNY.com,<br />

BALLROOM / LATIN SOCIAL DANCING<br />
(High School, Adult, Senior)<br />
By Richard Barnett<br />
“Dancing with the Stars” is one reason why people are<br />
joining dance classes, but there are others. Social dancing<br />
is fun <strong>and</strong> gives you the opportunity to develop friendships<br />
<strong>and</strong> gain confidence in a public setting. There are<br />
health benefits too. The ability to dance is present in<br />
everyone <strong>and</strong> you will have the opportunity to learn the<br />
dances which are the most popular at weddings <strong>and</strong> parties,<br />
like the foxtrot, waltz, swing, cha cha cha <strong>and</strong> salsa.<br />
While the caliber of dancing on “Dancing with the Stars”<br />

RELAX & RENEW – RESTFUL YOGA FOR<br />
STRESSFUL TIMES<br />
By Barbara Scott, Certified Yoga Teacher<br />
Restorative Yoga focuses on relaxing the body in restful<br />
postures. We work <strong>and</strong> live in a fast paced world <strong>and</strong> even<br />
when we are supposed to be relaxing we really are never<br />
resting. Note that “rest” is different than sleep. Rest provides<br />
the body an opportunity to renew <strong>and</strong> heal. This<br />
class is unique in that the first half is an active practice<br />
with stretches <strong>and</strong> yoga poses geared to the individual’s<br />
level. Then the lights dim <strong>and</strong> relaxation as you have<br />
never known it begins! Restorative postures are adapted<br />
from regular yoga poses with the addition of blocks, bolsters<br />
<strong>and</strong> blankets to eliminate unnecessary straining.<br />
Poses are held from 10 to 20 minutes, <strong>and</strong> although you<br />
are supported, you will definitely still feel the stretch. This<br />
enables the student to participate no matter what physical<br />
challenges are present. Many who practice restorative<br />
postures find that they sleep better <strong>and</strong> their<br />
energy levels are higher. Limited enrollment. Program<br />
