DeKalb County kids have something to look forward to this winter break with a series of camps being hosted by the DeKalb County Recreation, Parks, and Cultural Affairs. The Winter Break Camp is scheduled for December 23-24, December 26-27, December 30-31, and January 2-3, operating daily from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. It's a great opportunity for children ages 5 to 13 to stay active and engaged during their school hiatus.

The camps, available at a nominal fee of $10 per day, will not provide meals, so parents will need to pack breakfast, lunch, and snacks for their kids. According to the official announcement from DeKalb County's news release, registration is now open, and interested families can sign up either online at DeKalb County’s website or in person at any of the designated locations.

For convenience, multiple registration centers are available throughout the county. These include the East Central DeKalb Community and Senior Center in Stone Mountain, the Exchange Recreation Center, and Mason Mill Recreation Center in Decatur, among others. The full list of registration sites ensures that residents across the county can find a nearby location to sign up their kids for the camp days suited to their holiday schedules.

DeKalb County's official news portal states that any queries can be directed to LaShanda Davis, the Recreation, Parks, and Cultural affairs public relations specialist. Davis is available at 404-710-6331 or via email at [email protected], for additional information or assistance in the registration process. The Winter Break Camp presents a budget-friendly, structured outlet for young ones to not only play but also to learn and socialize during their break, a crucial aspect of their development.
