to date information about holiday hours, please call 954-452-2510.

Insurance The City of Plantation Parks and Recreation Department does not

carry medical or accident insurance for the participants of its programs. The cost of doing so would be so high that fees charged for programs would become prohibitive. We suggest that you review your family’s personal health insurance plan to ensure that it provides sufficient coverage.

We also suggest that you check with your family physician before participating in any City programs that require physical exertion. If your physician should discover factors that could limit you physically, please consider them when registering for programs.

Notice for Special Needs In compliance with Public Law 101-336 Title 11, Section 202, we

ask you to notify the City of Plantation if the participant has special needs in order to participate. The City of Plantation will provide reasonable accommodations for disabled individuals requesting special assistance in order to attend or participate in meetings, classes or events, provided, however, that a request for such assistance be made to the Parks & Recreation Department 954-452-2516 at least five calendar days prior to the meeting, class or event.

All City of Plantation brochures, programs and pamphlets are available in alternative format, upon request. Please call the Purchasing Department at 954-797-2648.
