How to Register

We hold two registration periods per year: a Fall session (for classes from September-December) and a Spring session (for classes January-May).

Come by on our Registration Day to sign up for any of the classes that are listed here on our website.

We look forward to seeing you!

Fall Session Registration:

At this time we have had to cancel our Fall 2020 session but hopefully will start up again for our Spring session in January 2021

Registration Policies

In order to make it fair to all of our members (especially with regards to access to popular classes), we have the following registration policies in place:

• Registration is done on a first-come, first to register for the classes you choose. Doors opening at 9 am on registration day. Please take a numbered registration form upon arrival and that number will determine the order of registration beginning at #1. Arrive early to avoid disappointment! Instructors will speak about their class, or classes, listed on the calendar on this morning prior to signing up for classes.
• If you cannot stay to register, members are encouraged to give their completed form (and payment) to a friend to register on their behalf. If this is not possible, a member of the Executive will be happy to take your form for you and register when all other members have completed their registrations. You may also email the Registrar after the scheduled registration date to find out which classes are still available.
  
• Early registrations are only permitted for the members of the Executive team.
• For the majority of classes, we will not allow any wait-lists. Instead, we will post on our web site and our on site bulletin board when we have extra or unexpected space in a class and you will be asked to contact the Registrar.

Payment Methods

We accept cash and cheques to pay for classes. Cheques are preferred. Payment is due on registration day.

Class Cancellations

If a class is cancelled due to lack of registrations or other circumstances, refunds will be given out. Our main form of communication is e-mail. Please provide this information for us – we will always blind copy and we do not share e-mail address with instructors or other organizations unless you have specified.

Refunds

LTO in Springbank does not allow for refunds for missed classes unless in the case of an emergency. We need to pay our instructors based on the number of people registered for the class and our instructors need to cover the cost of any supplies they may have to purchase prior to the class. In the past too many people were dropping out of classes and in some cases it forced us to cancel classes due to low participation. If you find yourself registered for a class and unable to attend talk to friends, including non LTO members, about “taking” your spot in the class and/or post it on our Facebook page.

Clean-Up and Bring a Snack Dates

We are a volunteer organization; therefore, we will need your assistance with the clean-up of our classes. New this session we are asking instructors to set up their own class and then at the end we are asking all participants, of that class, to stay at the end of the morning to help clean-up and put everything away  (approx.15 minutes).  We are still asking all members to sign up, on registration day, to bring a small snack to share with other LTO members on two dates.  It takes very little time and is a great help.

Inclement Weather Policy

It is the policy of LTO to cancel our classes on any Monday that the Springbank Schools’ buses are cancelled due to cold temperatures and/or high wind chill. Every effort will be made to make up for lost classes if this policy has to go into action. Cancellations will be posted on our Facebook page and we will make every attempt to contact, email and/or phone, you prior to the cancellation.
