We are a private, nonprofit 501 c 3
organization that
works in collaboration
with the City of
San Mateo Parks
and Recreation
Department to
support parks,
recreation programs
and capital projects
that can be enjoyed
by all San Mateo
residents. We believe
that parks play a vital
role in creating a
healthy and vibrant
community by:
• Providing every child a safe and enjoyable
place to play
• Making our neighborhoods attractive and
livable
• Providing access to the serenity and
inspiration of nature; and
• Bringing people together to create
memories that last a lifetime
We invite you to build a healthier, more
vibrant community by investing in people
and parks and supporting the work of the San
Mateo City Parks and Recreation Foundation.
Save the Date • February 6, 2015
The 23 year old playground at Beresford Park
has served us well but needs a renovation.
The City plans to make improvements to the
playground including the surrounding pathways
and landscaping. The Foundation is trying to
raise $500,000 in the effort and we would like
you to be part of the process to help make
this great resource all it can be to serve the
community for another quarter of century.
See our website for further information and
location, or even better, add your email and
we’ll keep you informed with our newsletter.

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.

General Information
Key Dates
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.
Payment Options
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
may withdraw from a course prior to the first class meeting and request
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”).

The City of San Mateo is committed to implementing the intent and 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.
