How to Register for Programs at the Rec

There are two easy ways to register for programs at the Rec Department. Programs can be registered for online or in person.

To Register Online:

Register online Now: WebTrac

You must first have a household I.D. number. If you have registered for recreation programs since 2004 you already have an I.D. number which can also be used for online registration. To obtain your household I.D. number simply call the Rec at (404) 377-0494 or e-mail your name, address and phone number to WebTrachelp@decaturga.com. (Allow one to two business days for the city to process your request.)

WebTrac Registration: • Step 1: Click on the WebTrac link on this page • Step 2: Type in your household ID and password (last name) • Step 3: Click on "Shop" to register for a class or "My Account" to review and update your household information

If you don't have a number, now is the time to get one! Online forms will be available soon. Until then please come to the Decatur Recreation Center to establish a household and obtain your household I.D. number. You can use your household I.D. number to register for classes, view class availability, and print current and past household receipts. Once you successfully log in, you will have the option to change your password, if you want to. If you don't have a household I.D. number yet, you can enter as a guest to browse program offerings.

Once you sign up and have your number, you are ready for online registration, provided you also have a Visa or MasterCard, and a current version of Netscape Navigator (7.0 or higher) or Internet Explorer (6.0 or higher). These can be downloaded ahead of time or when you visit the online registration page.

 

For program cancellations or transfers, you MUST call the Rec at 404-377-0494.
