New Member Information

Step one: Do you already have an account with us?

Some new members may already have an account online with us. This happens when you have registered for a membership or course at OSCC55+ before, or if you participated in a City of Oshawa Recreation program in the past.

If you already have an account; see Returning Member Information for further instructions.

If you have never had an OSCC55+ membership before, and have never participated in a City of Oshawa Recreation program in the past, then proceed to Step two.

Important: If you are unsure if you have an account, please do not create a new account; call a member of our OSCC55+ Administrative Team at 905-576-6712 extension 2830 for assistance.

Step two: Create your account
