Program and Event Updates

HELP US BETTER SERVE OUR COMMUNITY! As part of the Town of Carrboro’s race and equity initiative, maintaining data is important to ensure we are reaching and serving all members of our community. In order to achieve this goal, we hope to gain a better understanding of who we are currently serving. Therefore, we have added an ethnicity component to our RecTrac/WebTrac registration and reservation system.

How can you help?

We are asking that everyone who currently has an account through our RecTrac/WebTrac system to update their family’s information by providing the ethnicity of each household member. This will help us with reporting and evaluation of participation in recreation programs and activities, which will help guide our strategies to better serve the community.

If you already have a WebTrac account, please visit http://carrbororec.org and click on the RecConnect registration button:

From there, log into your account. Next, go to ‘Update Account Details’. From here, you can choose the ethnicity of family members in the drop down menu under each person. If you need assistance with your account, you may call the department at 919.918.7364 or email our Administrative Assistant at [email protected].

If you do not have a WebTrac account and the ability to update online, please contact our Administrative Assistant at the above phone number or email address and we can assist you with entering this information.

THANK YOU FOR HELPING US BETTER SERVE OUR ENTIRE COMMUNITY!
