Guidelines

General Guidelines

If anyone in your family has taken a Recreation or Senior Center class since 2012, your household account may already be set up. Be sure to check for an existing account before attempting to create a new one. If you are not sure, you can call the office to check. You will need to obtain a temporary password (which you should change) from the office to log into an existing account. Your account login is your e-mail address.

If you have never registered for class with the Royal Oak Recreation or the Senior Center, you will need to “create a new account” through the website. You cannot register for classes as a “guest”.

You can only register your own family. For any transfers, corrections or questions please call the Recreation Office at 248-246-3180, Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
