The City of New Orleans is making moves to enrich the summer for its young residents. On Saturday, March 8, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., the New Orleans Recreation Development Commission will be hosting its annual Youth and Teens Summer Camp Expo, a gateway for kids and teens to dive into a summer of growth and exploration. Local families are invited to attend the expo at one of five designated locations throughout the city, as chronicled in a recent announcement by the City of New Orleans.
At the expo, eager parents will have the opportunity to sign their children up for a variety of New Orleans Recreation Development summer camps. Registration will be available at Morris F.X. Jeff Rec Center, Joe W. Brown Rec Center, Lyons Rec Center, Milne Rec Center, and Sanchez Rec Center. Participants must come prepared with all required documents for on-site registration, to avoid any bureaucratic hiccups. This year, the New Orleans Recreation Development team takes pride in offering 28 summer camps tailored for different age groups, ranging from the inquisitive 4-year-old to the ambitious 15-year-old, aspiring to maximize their summer potential through knowledge and fun, as detailed by the City of New Orleans.
The camps are designed to keep young minds actively engaged across the spectrum of academia, culture, and recreational play. Among the staple experiences are field trips to New Orleans favorites like the Audubon Zoo and Aquarium of the Americas, as well as opportunities for water safety lessons in New Orleans Recreation Development pools, a blend of education and excitement for the season ahead, as reported by the City of New Orleans.
The full list of camps along with the essentials for registration are available at New Orleans Recreation Development's official website, where interested families can visit to learn more, as per the City of New Orleans. As the community gears up for a summer of discovery, the New Orleans Recreation Development Commission stands ready to turn the sunny season into a platform, for growth and joyful experiences.
