Registration updates
NSSRA program registrations will continue to be processed on a first-come, first-served basis— introduced last season as a change from the previous lottery system. Some programs are very popular and may fill before the registration deadline, so we strongly encourage you to register as early as possible!
The fastest and preferred way to register is online at register. nssra. org. We recommend using the wishlist feature to save your preferred programs in advance and checking your login information ahead of time.
Paper and digital registration forms received before the start of the registration period will be held and processed in random order after registration opens. To increase your chances of securing a spot, we strongly encourage using the online system at register. nssra. org.
Resident / non-resident policy
If you live in one of NSSRA’ s ten partner park districts, two cities, or village, you are considered a resident. These include the Park Districts of Deerfield, Glencoe, Glenview, Highland Park, Kenilworth, Lake Bluff, Northbrook, Northfield, Wilmette and Winnetka, the Cities of Lake Forest and Highwood, and the Village of Riverwoods.
Individuals residing outside the NSSRA boundaries must pay an annual Administrative Fee prior to registering for any NSSRA program. The Administrative Fee is approximately $ 2,200.
This fee allows participation in NSSRA programs for one year.
Program payment
Outstanding balances must be paid prior to registration for the next season. If assistance is needed regarding payment, contact NSSRA at( 847) 509-9400 or registration @ nssra. org.
