Newmarket residents can soon start registering for winter fun as the town opens its winter programming starting Dec. 7.

Program registration will begin that day for town residents. For the first time, the town will have its registration run through its new Xplor system, replacing the old PLAY account system.

Registration will begin online at 8 a.m.

“We know that our recreation and culture opportunities set Newmarket apart,” Mayor John Taylor said in the winter activity guide. “That is why we are glad to offer so many programs, classes and drop-in sessions to help you and your family remain active year-round.”

You can create an Xplor Recreation account through the municipal website at newmarket.perfectmind.com. The new software launched in October, promising a more easy-to-use and accessible system than the previous one. The accounts are now necessary to sign up for recreation programming, even if you previously had an account registered with the PLAY system.

To sign up for Xplor, simply fill out the online form with your basic information, click on the confirmation email and then set up a new password. Newmarket has also put out a series of how-to videos on Xplor.

Once you have an account, you can be ready to sign up for programs when they open up Dec. 7. The town said if you have any issues with your account, you can contact customer service at info@newmarket.ca or call 905-895-5193.

You can find a full listing of the town’s winter programs at newmarket.ca/activityguide.

Registration for non-residents to winter programs will open one week later, Dec. 14 at 8 a.m.
