About Our Program The Youth Dance program is designed to grow
with your child. Classes build on the previous years’ experience and
prepare children for the next level. They foster creative expression
and skill building through improvisation and choreography while
developing a skill base of dance techniques in ballet, jazz, modern
dance, or traditional world dances.
Children are expected to continue in the same class for the school
year. Because dance is a performance art form, all children age 4 and
up have opportunities to perform in the Holiday Festival of Dance
and the Spring Dance Show. If you are NEW to our program and
unsure what class to take, please call the Dance Office at 522.7444.
If your child requires special accommodations so that he or she may
successfully participate in our program, please contact the Dance
Supervisor prior to the start of the program.

Beresford Park Play Area Renovation
The Department is working to replace the 23 year old play area at Beresford Park. After an
extensive public input process, the landscape architecture firm for the project has developed a
final design for the playground. Staff is working with the firm to develop construction documents
for the design that are within the allocated budget for the project. The Department anticipates
going to bid for construction of the project in March 2015 with expected completion of
the play area in Spring 2016. For updated information on this project check out its website at
www.cityofsanmateo.org/beresfordpark.

the City has been gathering feedback to help shape the future vision of Central Park. Based on public
input received and the planning objectives approved by the City Council during the first public
comment phase, a landscape architecture firm has developed three new designs for
the Central Park Master Plan. The three designs are currently available for review
on the City’s website at www.cityofsanamteo.org/centralpark. In addition, a survey
is available on San Mateo Town Hall (sanmateotownhall.org) about the designs.

Verification of Residency
Residents live or own property in the City of San Mateo. All others are
non-residents. People with San Mateo mailing addresses but living outside
the city limits (i.e., San Mateo Highlands) are non-residents. We may require
proof of residency. Acceptable proof of residency could be a current tax
or utility bill. If you are not sure, call us at 522.7400.
We accept cash (not exceeding $100), checks, Visa and MasterCard
payments. Enclose payment for first choice classes only. Checks returned
by the bank will be charged a $25 NSF fee and may result in immediate
cancellation of your registration.
Waitlist
If you are placed on a waitlist for a course, any fees paid for this course
may be placed in your account creating a credit balance. You may use
this credit for future courses or request a full refund. We do not charge
your credit card for waitlisted activities.
Credit/Refund/Withdrawal
If a class is cancelled you will be offered 1) a transfer to another course,
2) to keep the fees as credit on your account, or 3) receive a full refund.
Allow 4 weeks for refund of check or cash payments. All payments made
by Visa or MasterCard will be refunded to your credit card account. You

EITHER a) credit on your account for later use, or b) a refund. After
your class has started, if you cannot continue for personal reasons,
please let us know right away. Your withdrawal credit or refund
will be pro-rated from the business day we receive your withdrawal
request. Credit balances should be used within two years. If an account
is inactive for more than two years, any remaining credit balance will be
donated to the City’s Recreation Fee Assistance Program.
Recreation Fee Assistance Program
The Recreation Fee Assistance Program is designed to allow access to our
programs for all residents. For those residents with financial hardships,
assistance is available to help offset the costs of recreation class fees. (Not
all classes may be eligible for assistance). Qualifying residents are currently
eligible for 30% and 60% fee waivers depending upon their current income
and whether they are a youth or adult. A current Enrollment Application
accompanied by required income documentation (noted on the application)
is needed for program enrollment. Interested residents are encouraged to
complete the Recreation Fee Assistance Enrollment Application which is
available at all community centers and City Hall. It can also be downloaded
at www.cityofsanmateo.org (search by “Recreation Fee Assistance”).

spirit of ADA legislation. Those who may need assistance in order to
enjoy our programs should contact the appropriate program director
or the main Recreation office (see City Contacts, page 42) so we may
arrange for the assistance.

nearly all of our programs, we will arrange one of the following upon
your request: 1. Transfer to another time or activity. 2. A full credit
for future use for any activity we offer. 3. A full refund. Some of
our programs, for example Facility Rentals, Admissions, Adult Sports
Leagues, Summer Camps, on-going/multi-session programs, and
performance activities have different, specific policies which apply.
Your complete satisfaction with these programs is equally valued,
and we will work with you to resolve your concerns and satisfaction
in these activities as well.
Please contact us in writing, by phone or in person at any of our
recreation centers. Requests must be made within 10 business days
after the end of the session to receive a refund or credit (this session
