ActiveMONTGOMERY Reservation Process

How to request an outdoor school facility for an event.

Step 1: After signing into ActiveMONTGOMERY.org, select the "Reserve a Facility or Space" thumbnail. 

Step 2: On the next page, a user can select different outdoor school facility options for reservation. This includes "Fields," "Basketball Outdoor Courts," "Parking Lots," and "Tennis Outdoor Courts" thumbnail.

Step 3: Important reminder, selecting the "Fields" thumbnail will take the user to another page that will allow the user to select the "School Fields" thumbnail.

After selecting the preferred school facility thumbnail, the user will gain access to additional information that will help them complete an online reservation form that will be reviewed by CUPF staff. Once submitted through the ActiveMONTGOMERY portal, a follow-up email will be provided notifying the user that their online reservation request is under review.

• Organizations should ensure that the account login and password is available to whomever in the organization has been given the authority to reserve public facilities on their behalf.
• Individual / personal accounts may not make facility reservations on behalf of an organization.
• Payment is due at the time of the reservation.
• A final approval and "firm" contract are required prior to an advertisement by the group for the event. This final "firm" contract will be sent to the main email on file for the account requesting the space. 

School Facility Use is subject to additional fees such as staffing, clean up and set up as well as security. Your initial payment of $250 is applied towards this balance.
