The Allentown Department of Parks and Recreation is moving to a new recreation management software system.

Effective immediately, the Department will begin using MyRec.com Recreation Software to improve customer convenience and increase access to department offerings. This transition also allows for added payment methods such as credit or debit cards.

MyRec software requires users to create an account which will enable them to register for programs, reserve pavilions or rent fields. The software provides simple step-by-step instructions on creating your account which becomes active upon recreation staff review. Applicants should allow 2-3 business days for activation.

“Our transition to MyRec will dramatically increase consumer accessibility to the myriad of department offerings,” said Parks & Recreation Director Karen El-Chaar. “The ability for consumers to register for programs or rent fields from the comfort of their own homes on their own schedules will open up opportunities for more individuals to enjoy our park amenities.”

To create an account please visit www.allentownparksandrec.com today.

For additional information and resources, residents and visitors may contact the Parks & Recreation office at 610-437-7757 and/or follow the department on social media via Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @AllentownParksandRec as well as subscribing to the new YouTube Channel, Allentown PA Parks and Recreation.
