You are required to have a RecDesk account before you register for a class, and the Town only accepts payment for classes through your online RecDesk account (the Town cannot accept cash or checks for classes at this time). If you need assistance setting up your RecDesk account, please give our Art Liaison, April Cannon, a call at 919-435-9568 (please leave a voicemail if applicable). You can also email her at acannon@wakeforestnc.gov.
