Camp Registration Day
Camp Registration Day is Saturday, February 23 at Gahanna City Hall. Check back the week of February 11 for details!
We have made significant changes to the Camp Registration Day process so waiting in lines is a thing of the past. Please read the following information carefully to reserve your time block.
Camp Registration Day is an in-person early registration option for Gahanna summer day camp programs. Some camps may sell out on this day!
In 2018, the City enlisted the help of The Ohio State University students to analyze existing Registration Day processes and make recommendations to improve efficiency and reduce wait times.
New in 2019, families will be assigned a TIME BLOCK in advance of registration day. In order to qualify for a time block, you must sign-up to attend and provide information to confirm/update your household information record.
By updating this information in advance, we will reduce the amount of time it will take to register participants for desired camp sessions. Time blocks will be assigned, based on the order in which requests are received – the earlier you sign-up, the earlier your assignment. Each time block will be assigned to the maximum number of families we have determined we can serve simultaneously. Time blocks begin at 9 am and occur every half hour until registrations are completed.
Individuals who arrive at Registration Day without a prior time block assignment will be asked to update their household information and be assigned to the next available time block. They may choose to wait or come back at their assigned time.
Sign-up for participation in Registration Day will begin on Friday, February 15 at 9 am and end on Friday, February 22 at 10 am. Register online through WebTrac, over the phone by calling 614.342.4250 or in person at Gahanna City Hall, 200 S. Hamilton Rd. Time block assignments will be distributed via email beginning the week of February 18.
Walk-in, phone, and online camp registration will begin at 8 am on Monday, February 25.
