Now all rec centre front desk employees are trained to sign you up (or you can do it at a computer at the rec centre, should they have some public computers there).

Thanks! Your response was really more response then needed. The challenge is just that its impossible to get registered, beyond what should be expected. Its a mad race. You can register in person, but....that is pointless as you can only register at the end when they see your report card, so they know what level to register you at....yet...you can register online for as many as you wNmant, whenever. Wild west of swimming online i guess yoy cpuld say
. So as a result people register months and months in advance in multiple classes, then pull out of most at the last minute...even with a $20 change fee. Its nothing to have lessons all booked up for 3-6 months ahead or more.
That said the actual lessons are typically awesome, and pass on my kudos for that.
Anyway sorry for clogging this up with a very minor issue in grand scheme of things, but as a father of two tiny little swimmers... My life often revolves around these kind of things, sadly.
