Families in Camrose County now have access to a new free summer day camp for children aged 6 to 12. The Summer In The Park program, launched by Camrose & District Family and Community Support Services, offers structured activities such as crafts, games, and outdoor play throughout the region.
The program will visit five rural communities this summer to provide local enrichment opportunities. The sessions run daily from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the following locations:
- Round Hill: July 6 to July 9
- Bittern Lake: July 13 to July 16
- New Norway: July 20 to July 23
- Bawlf: July 27 to July 30
- Hay Lakes: August 10 to August 13
Registration for the camps opened on May 11, 2026. Parents can sign their children up through the Camrose Family Resource Centre. Families are encouraged to register early, as space is limited; registration for each session closes one week before the start date if spots remain available.
This initiative is part of a broader provincial effort to support families through the Family and Community Support Services program. This is a funding partnership between the Government of Alberta and local municipalities, including Camrose County and the City of Camrose, to provide social services to the community.
For more information or to assist with registration, residents can contact the program organizers via email at [email protected] or by calling 780-673-1385.
