New for Summer 2024: This program will now be offered as a drop-in program. You will no longer be required to register for each and every session. Instead, parents/guardians are asked to complete one registration form for the summer, per child. Once completed, children are allowed to attend throughout the summer, once per week. On days where the program has field-trips, a special sign up may be required, and details will be shared in the calendar for those sign ups. Schedule will be posted on the website by May 31, 2024.
In order to gather important contact and emergency information for each participant that attends, we ask parents/guardians to complete a registration form that will be used throughout the summer. Please complete one form per child.
To register, please press the button below. Note, form will not be live until registration opening date on April 16, 2024 at 10:00 am.
Note: We still ask for a registration form to be completed, even though the program is drop-in. This is to ensure we have accurate and up to date emergency contacts and info for each participant.
To be posted by May 31, 2024.
What to Bring: Each participant should bring a labeled water bottle, appropriate outdoor shoes, weather appropriate clothing for outdoor activities, mask (optional), and any personal/ medical items that are required for participation.
Please do not send children with toys, money, electronics, etc.
