About Summer Day Camp

Summer "Play" Day Camp, based at the Louisville Recreation Center, has the perfect mix of structured and child directed activities. Arts and Crafts fosters creativity, free thinking and self expression. Sports and games provide opportunities for teamwork, new experiences and physical activity. Free choice time allows for child-centered play for healthy brain development, imagination, physical strength and cognitive skills. Plus weekly field trips on Wednesdays, swimming at the Recreation Center's new, expanded aquatics center on Tuesdays & Thursdays= a Summer of FUN! No wonder campers return year after year! Take a look at calendars from previous years. Activities are designed with the elementary aged child in mind. We ask parents to use their best judgment in considering enrolling a younger child, unaccustomed to a large setting with numerous children of various ages; as well as older children who may not be interested in being in a camp with mixed ages. Be sure to read the Summer Day Camp Handbook for specific policies and procedures. Register early, this camp traditionally fills very fast.
