New for Summer 2024: This program will now operate as a drop-in program. You will no longer need to register for each session individually. Instead, parents/guardians are to complete one registration form per child for the entire summer. Once completed, children can attend once per week throughout the summer. On days when the program organizes field trips, a separate sign-up may be necessary, and details will be provided in the calendar. Please complete one form per child.
What to Bring to the Program
Participants should bring a labeled water bottle, appropriate outdoor shoes, weather-appropriate clothing for outdoor activities, a mask (optional), and any personal/medical items necessary for participation.
Please do not send children with toys, money, electronics, etc. The City of Selkirk will not assume responsibility for any lost or stolen items
