Lakeside Chautauqua offers thousands of special classes and activities throughout the summer to nurture mind, body and spirit. Some of these activities may require pre-registration in our Active registration system. Browse arts classes, swim lessons, wooden boat rides, tennis and pickleball clinics, theater camps and more in the below categories. Additional events that require registration are listed below the category buttons.
Anyone can browse the list of classes and activities on our ACTIVE registration system, but before you can register yourself or a family member, you’ll need to log into an ACTIVE account. Each household must have one (and only one) account. Multiple family/household members can be added to the account so they can be individually registered for activities, classes and events. If your household doesn’t yet have an account, please create one. Any household member over the age of 18 can create the account. After you’ve created an ACTIVE account, you’ll need to verify and activate the email address before you proceed. For tips and tricks on how to use our ACTIVE registration system, click here.
