REGISTRATION DATES

How does registration work?

Registration is online only. Please ensure you are prepared for the Virtual Queue process.

We’ve implemented a “Virtual Queue” on the first day of summer registration to make the sign-up process as equitable and easy as possible.

  1. Waiting Room: You can enter the online “waiting room” starting at 9:00 a.m. PST on the day of registration.
  2. Virtual Queue: When registration officially begins at 10:00 a.m. PST, everyone in the waiting room will be placed into the Virtual Queue in a random order to begin purchasing spots.
  3. Late Log-in: Anyone logging on after 10:00 a.m. PST will be placed at the back of the Virtual Queue.

Everyone who enters the waiting room between 9 am and 10 am will have an equal chance of being placed early in the queue, so you won’t need to worry about being the first person to load our website that morning.
