- Registration for Fall Youth Soccer has been extended until August 19.
- In addition, PRT will hold a special registration session at the Tabb Library Meeting Room on Thursday, August 11, from 4-7 p.m. (cash and check payments only).
These changes were made for the convenience of citizens because the online registration option will not be working August 1-2 and August 5-12 due to a software upgrade. It will be available during all other registration dates. Parents, please remember that you can still mail in registrations or come in person to the PRT Office, M-F, from 8:15 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more registration and program information, please use the links below or call the PRT office at 890-3500.
