Youth Summer Camps

 The 2009 Summer Camp Program provides an affordable recreation experience that addresses the specific social, creative and development needs of elementary age children who are on vacation from school. The program is designed to allow children the opportunity to play, to create, to socialize, and to have fun as an individual and as a member of a group.

The Summer Playground Program provides each participant with a safe and secure place to have an opportunity to learn and participate, to meet old school buddies, to create new friendships and most importantly, to spend his or her day having FUN!!!

To highlight and maximize summer fun, camp weeks are focused on many exciting themes. Program costs also include the cost of healthy snacks and all field trips.

The camps are supervised by qualified, well-trained staff who have had previous experience working with children.
