FROM THE MAYOR
Spring and summer – two of my favorite seasons in Pickerington! Everything comes back to life, the weather warms up and our parks are filled with families. The Pickerington Parks & Recreation Department does a great job planning events and programs to get people outdoors. This year you’ll see some new additions that we’re particularly excited about, including a ninja warrior course, Street Jackets hockey, a Youth Adventure Challenge and a Friends and Family Disc Golf Tournament. Adult kickball is a lot of fun too. One of our most popular offerings when the weather is warm is Friday Night Flicks, a chance to bring your family to Sycamore Creek Park and watch a free movie under the stars. There’s also a host of events planned at the Pickerington Community Pool this summer so if you don’t already have your season pass, now is the time to get that early bird discount. And don’t forget the free concerts, free fishing derby and adult sports leagues. I’ve just touched on a few things the City offers so I hope you’ll take some time to explore this guide and learn more. Grab a fishing pole, a skateboard, a swimsuit and make this your best spring and summer yet!

City of Pickerington 100 Lockville Road Pickerington, OH 43147
Registration is complete with full payment. Accepted methods of payment include: Cash, Checks made payable to City of Pickerington, and VISA and MasterCard.

DROP-BOX
Drop off your registration form and full payment after normal operating hours in the secure drop box located at City Hall and your registration will be processed the next business day.
Frequestly Asked Questions 1. I would prefer not to register online, can I register over the phone? A: We cannot take registrations over the phone. If you prefer not to register online, you can send in a Registration Form and return to 100 Lockville Road. 2. I have an online account with Pickerington for taxes or utilities. Do I use the same login to register for programs? A: Our systems are separate. You will need to create a new account through the Parks and Recreation online registration website. 3. I have a Pickerington address (or my child goes to Pickerington schools), but my street is not listed on the City of Pickerington Street Listing. Do I still receive Resident pricing? A: If your street is not listed, your address falls outside of Pickerington City limits even though you have a Pickerington mailing address. Many addresses with Pickerington mailing addresses are in Violet Township but are outside Pickerington City limits and not subject to Pickerington City income tax (Pickerington Local School District school district taxes are separate). 4. My street is listed on the City of Pickerington Street Listing, but I cannot select “Resident” when trying to register. How do I ensure I am charged the City Resident Discount Fee? A: Your account has not been setup as a Resident. Please call 614-8332211 to have your account updated. The system will not allow you to select the appropriate fee on your own; it must be updated by the Parks and Recreation Department staff. 5. My account has been setup as a Resident previously, but the system is still showing Non-Resident pricing. Why? A: This is most likely because you have added a new family member after your account was updated or created a duplicate account. Our system will default as a Non-Resident every time a new account is created even if the main member has already been updated to Resident pricing. Please call 614-833-2211 to have your new family member’s residency updated. There is also a chance you have created a duplicate account. If you created a new household account using a different/new email address, the system will not link to your previous account. Please call 614-833-2211 to troubleshoot your account.
BY FAX Fax us your registration form 24/7 with your VISA or MasterCard information to 614-833-2201.
City Resident Discount Fee
In order to receive the City Resident Discount Fee, you must live within the City limits of Pickerington. A complete Street Listing is available on the website. A household includes one set of parents or legal guardians and their children (26 years and under) residing in the same household. If more than one family resides in the household, each family must setup their own household. Babysitters, grandparents and extended family members are not included in the same household. Even though you have a Pickerington mailing address, or live within the Pickerington Local School District, you may not live within City Limits.

Bally Sports Group leads an age appropriate program that utilizes fun games and activities to teach the fundamentals to beginning soccer players. Coaches focus on teaching the basics of dribbling, passing, scoring and the concept of game play. Proper sportsmanship is emphasized in a positive and encouraging atmosphere enabling children to enjoy learning soccer while also having fun being physically active. Each week will include both developmentally appropriate instruction as well as recreational, non-competitive game play. Each player receives a team shirt. Shin guards required. Optional: cleats and soccer ball (size 3)
Our goal is to educate, elevate and motivate toddlers to experience how their bodies move through the use of creative movement to music, props, games, basic stretches and tumbling/gymnastic apparatuses. A caregive must be present and helping their tot as needed to follow instructor’s directions.
Our goal for this age group is to develop upper body strength, kinesthetic awareness, confidence in being in an inverted position and an understanding of falling techniques and landing positions. We use various drills that require the student to go upside down, tuck, roll, turn, jump, go backwards, go down inclines, grip, swing, balance and more. We teach our elements through fun activities and constantly keep the class progressing through a tumbling/gymnastics circuit.

Let’s create and watch some amazing chemical reactions. Watch a mirage appear. You won’t believe it! Wonder where the sorting hat will place you? Make cool crystals. Come join us where the magic of science, art and literature meet. Harry, Ron and Hermoine are waiting for your arrival. Experiment with colored magic sand. See a mysterious glowing ball.
Children discover the amazing science of Archaeology as they uncover ancient artifacts. In doing this, we will learn about Egyptian life. We will excavate with tools like a real archaeologist uses. We will find the following artifacts as we excavate a scarab (what’s that?), hieroglyphic tablet, ankh symbol and a jackal. You will learn about this and even take home a booklet. The artifacts are yours to keep. We will wet the sand that we dig into and create one of two sand sculptures for display. You can make a pyramid as well as a sphinx. Let’s go back in time with a hands on archaeological experience!
