Our twp recreation dept offered swimming for my 2 kids who were to be in different level classes. The recreation brochure said there were only 3 spots available for each class for the date and time I needed (the classes would be going on at the same time for my 2 kids). Being responsible, I stayed up until midnight of the day registration opened to snag two of the spots for my kids. I got into both.
A month later I recieve a call from the YMCA saying that my one classes has been cancelled b/c they do not have an instructor and that the other class has been moved to another time (that does not work for me since we have Kindergarten). The kicker is that the class was moved to another time to make room for the people who were on the waiting list! What about people like me that made it into the original class! I called and was offered a refund. That's not the point! These classes are hard to get into in my town, I try to do the right thing by registering early, and I end up getting shut out to accomodate those on the waiting list!
