Recreation Center Membership Information
The Center is open to all Township residents, however, an application must be filled out prior to first use. Membership cards will be issued and must be brought each open gym session.
To apply for a free membership, an adult family member (18+) must come to the Center during office business hours and present a valid drivers license with a Gloucester Township address and a utility bill as proof of residency. All students , 18 and under, must present his/her school ID before being issued a card.
We enforce these rules so that our Recreation Center is for Gloucester Twp. residents only and NOT for people of neighboring townships or counties. We do not have a guest policy.
Program Registration Information
Registration for Preschool, programs and bus trips are held at the Recreation Center beginning at 8am and will continue until the program or trip reaches capacity.
Space is limited for all programs and trips. In-person registration is required for all activities. Registration forms must be filled out by the participant or parent/guardian. All programs require advanced registration. Make checks payable to Twp. of Gloucester except where otherwise noted; two separate checks may be necessary.
Programs are for Township residents only. Bring a valid drivers license and second proof of residency to registration. Preschool registration also requires a photocopy of the child's birth certificate & medical records. Non Residents may register for Prek for an additional fee.
Full refunds will be given if the Recreation Department cancels a trip or program due to low enrollment. We reserve the right to cancel a trip or program if enough people have not registered in advance.
Program refunds will be given minus a $10.00 processing fee. This refund must be requested before 20% of the scheduled classes are completed. Trip refunds will only be given if a replacement can be found. Trip refunds are also subject to a $10.00 processing fee. Please bring your receipt to the office for processing. All refunds take 30-45 days to process.
