Stand-by Process (Walk-in Students)

The walk-in procedure is for persons not already enrolled in any other BRC class.

Non-registered (walk-in) students will be accepted between 5-5:30 PM on the first night of class, and will be used to fill any available seats at the start of class.  Day class walk-ins will be accepted up to ½ hour prior to the scheduled start time. Walk-ins will receive a number when they arrive.  Once class starts, any available seats will be filled by a random drawing, with one exception. 15 ½-17 year olds students will have a priority on any available seats; as it is a mandatory class for them.

mandatory and FREE for students 15 ½ - 17 years old.  A parent or guardian must show up at the first class to sign a waiver form--takes approximately 10 minutes.  Minors who register online must pay for the class, and will receive a refund upon class completion.
