Community Center Rules and Regulations
Please note that all Community Center staff are authorized to enforce all facility rules and policies.

North Liberty Community Center Unattended Child Policy
Children are welcome at the North Liberty Community Center which includes the Library, Telecommunications, and Recreation Departments. We try to provide an environment/place for ALL to enjoy. Patron safety and welfare are major concerns and that is why we have established an unattended child policy and have established patron discipline policies as well. Parents and caregivers (18 years & older) are responsible for monitoring the activities and behavior of their children while at the Community Center. Children Under 9 Years Old MAY NOT be present within the Community Center without direct supervision from a parent or caregiver (18yrs. & older). Parents/guardians must be in the same area/part of the facility as the child.

Refund Policy
Full Refunds: Given prior to the first class or if the program is canceled by the Recreation Department.
No Refunds: Given after the first class.
Refunds are processed through City Hall and will be mailed to you. Please allow 3-4 weeks for delivery of payment. Credits can be applied to your account as an alternative if you are planning on signing up for future programs.

Photos
The North Liberty Recreation Center uses pictures of program participants to highlight the many recreational activities available. If you do not want a picture of yourself or your child taken, please tell our class instructors and/or the photographer.

Registration fees must be paid at the time of registration. Fees may be paid by cash, check, Visa or MasterCard. A $10.00 charge will be assessed on any NSF checks.

All program registration is on a first-come, first-served basis. Early registration is strongly recommended. Some classes have class size limits and early registration helps alleviate class cancellation due to lack of enrollment.

Late Registration Fees: Any registrations that occur after the set deadline will incur a $5.00 late fee for individuals or $15.00 for a team.

Waiver Required
Participants 18 years & older or parents/guardians of participants under 18 years MUST sign a waiver of liability before the participant can attend the program.

Cancellations or Changes
The North Liberty Recreation Center Staff reserves the right to change dates, times, locations and fees without notice. If changes are made and participants have a conflict, refunds or credits will be issued.

Residents vs. Non-Residents
Through their property taxes, City of North Liberty residents make a significant financial contribution to the North Liberty Community Center. The non-resident concept is intended to equalize fees to our non-resident participants so they contribute to the overall financing of the department on an equitable basis with our residents. Non-residents pay $5.00 more than residents on most programs and rentals. Non-resident's pool passes also cost more than resident pool passes. Residents are those who reside in the 52317 zip code (PO boxes are not valid).

Expulsion from the Premises
The North Liberty Recreation Center Staff reserves the right to dismiss anyone from a program or the facility without a refund, who in the opinion of the management is disorderly and disruptive.

Pool Rules
Other rules apply to the Aquatic Facility. Please see the pool rules page for Aquatics regulations.
