INFORMATION
How to register
To enroll in classes, use the Class
Registration Form on p. 20 of this booklet.
Complete one form for each individual
registration and return by mail to:
JCC of Syracuse
5655 Thompson Rd.
DeWitt, NY 13214
Or, fax to 315-449-4539.
Full payment must be received with the
enrollment form. Register early as some
programs have limited space and classes fill
up fast. JCC members receive enrollment
priority.
Automatic registration
Auto registration can be made for the same
ongoing class next semester. Please indicate
this on the registration form and your credit
card will be billed at that time.
Cancellations, refunds & changes
No registration confirmations are sent. We
will notify you only if a program is cancelled.
The JCC reserves the right to cancel a
program due to insufficient registration. In
such cases, a full refund or credit will be
issued. Transfers from one class to another
can only be made with prior JCC approval.
Billing
Membership JCC membership is a oneyear
commitment. Annual membership is
non-refundable and payment is due in full
upon joining. Or, for your convenience, you
may choose an alternate payment option
such as monthly automatic payments from
your credit/debit card or bank account.
Program enrollment Bills for the Early
Childhood Development Program (ECDP)
and the After School Program will be
issued on or about the first of every month.
Payment may be made by mail, in person or
via phone/fax by credit card. You may also
choose monthly automatic payments from
your credit/debit card or bank account.
ECDP and After School Program
withdrawal/change policy
Changes or withdrawals must be made in
writing to the program by the 15th of the
month (or next business day) prior to the
change. If written notification is not received,
you are responsible for the original billed
amount. Increases in days and times are
based on availability. This is to ensure that
we maintain proper staffing ratios.
Kashrut Policy
The JCC kitchen is under the supervision
of the Syracuse Va’ad Ha-ir. The kashrut
policy requires strict adherence to the list
of approved foods that may be brought into
the kitchen. This list is available through
program staff members.
Room rental
The JCC rents a variety of spaces at
affordable rates. Our auditorium has
computer presentation capabilities and we
offer kosher catering. We also have various
conference rooms that can be arranged to
accommodate meetings, classes, parties
and other events. For details, contact
Mariette DeWolf at 315-445-2040, ext. 112.

open during snowy and harsh winter
