www.ZionParkDistrict.comTake Time For Fun!NON-RESIDENT INFORMATION

Non-residents are welcome to participate in Zion Park District programs andactivities. Many of these programs require that a non-resident pay an additional out-of-district fee. The non-resident fee options are listed below.

1. Single Program Fee – This is an additional fee paid per program. The amount varies with each program. Check individual program listings.

2. Pass Fee – This is an additional fee paid when a season pass is purchased. The amount varies according to the type of pass purchased. These fees are listed next to the pass prices.

3. League Fee - $15.00 – This is an additional fee paid per sport. For example: A non-resident summer softball player would pay $15.00 at the beginning of the season. This would cover her for all summer softball programs. Another fee would have to be paid for another type of sport, or the same sport in a different season (i.e. volleyball, fall softball). This fee is not refundable.

Often times a question arises as to who is a resident of the Park District. A resident must live within the boundaries of Zion Park District. It’s sometimes easy to confuse residency with a Zion mailing address. Many people in the area surrounding Zion have a five-digit Zion mailing address. These five-digit addresses are located in the county and are not within the boundaries of Zion Park District. A tax bill, voter registration card, or vehicle sticker receipt will help to establish your residency. The park district staff will be glad to answer any questions you may have regarding these fees.

REFUNDSFor programs that are ongoing (six sessions or more), refunds may be issued in accordance with the following schedule:

Prior to the 1st meeting .........................................................................100%Prior to the 2nd meeting ..........................................................................75%Prior to the 3rd meeting ...........................................................................50%After the 3rd meeting .....................................................................NoRefundRefund checks will be mailed to you. Please allow two weeks for processing.

We look forward to hearing from you and assisting you any way we can.
