Activity Dates & Registration
At Hayden, the majority of our programs are offered in seasonal sessions, typically lasting around 8 weeks. These run during the Fall, Winter, and Spring, with classes taking place from September through early June. Session lengths may vary slightly due to holidays or facility closures.
Non-Resident Registration will take place one-week after registration opens.
