Vernon Resident Program now in effect for recreation services

News

The City of Vernon is reminding residents that the new Vernon Resident Program is now in place at Vernon Recreation Services.

Under the program, Vernon residents, and residents whose local government participate in a ‘fee for service’ agreement with the City of Vernon, will receive reduced-cost services and early registration privileges with Vernon Recreation Services.

  • Eligible residents will benefit from a 50 per cent discount on posted memberships and admission rates, and a 25 per cent discount on certain registered programs.
  • Eligible residents will have priority registration, allowing them to sign up for programs two weeks before non-residents.

It is important to note, it may take a few minutes to register or validate an individual’s account for the first time. The City of Vernon is encouraging Vernon Recreation Services users who are eligible for the Vernon Resident Program to pre-register (one-time) before they wish to use recreation facilities, in order to avoid any potential delays.

The process is quick and easy:

  1. To validate your current account, or to get a new account created, please fill out a Recreation Services account creation and VRP membership form.
  2. Bring the completed form to either the Vernon Recreation Centre or Kal Tire Place.
  3. Applicants must present valid government issued photo ID with current residential address at the time of registration.
