• The short answer is – no. An active membership is required in order to register for our programs. 

• On the night of registration, if you call the registration line and try to register for a program without an active membership, our staff will not be able to register you for any programs, and they will not be able to support with your membership registration over the phone that evening. Our programs book up quickly so we recommend that you, or the individual(s) you’re registering for has registered for a membership in advance.
