If you are having trouble with gaining access to your court at your specified reservation time, or are having any other day-of reservation problem please contact the Parks Department at (608) 270-4288.

• Cancelation Policy

  • Once a reservation is paid for all fees are non-refundable, except in the case of inclement weather. If you are unable to utilize your reserved time due to inclement weather, a credit for the rental amount will be put on your online account for future use towards another rental, activity enrollment, etc. (Note: wind will not be considered unless a Wind Advisory is issued by the National Weather Service).
    • Inclement Weather Procedure: To receive a credit on your account, renters must email the Parks Director (Scott.Endl@FitchburgWI.gov) within 24 hours after the reservation. The email must contain the Permit #, reservation date & time, and cancelation reason.
  • If a reservation must be changed due to an unforeseen scheduling conflict, the Parks Director or an authorized agent will attempt to mediate a solution with any and all parties affected by the conflict. The City reserves the right to unilaterally change the reservation schedule if needed, and permits can be rescheduled or canceled by the City.
