Parents and kids in the City of Hamilton can look forward to an action-packed summer as the city partners with 17STRONG to unveil a comprehensive Summer Programming Guide. The guide, aimed at connecting families with a diverse range of camps, activities, and events for the summer months, promises to offer something for everyone from May through August.

Families wanting to get a jump on planning their summer schedules will soon have all the local options at their fingertips, thanks to a new hub being developed on the 17STRONG website. Here, various programs will be featured with easy navigation and detailed information for potential participants. "Together, we're building a stronger, more connected Hamilton," according to the City of Hamilton, the initiative proclaims, as it seeks to serve as a one-stop resource for parents and kids alike.

Local organizations offering youth summertime programs should act promptly to secure a spot in the guide. Details, including program information and flyers, must be submitted by April 14. Those submitting can expect increased visibility, with their programs listed and accompanied by a digital flyer with a convenient QR code.

There are a few stipulations for interested parties to bear in mind: The activities must occur within the city limits, separate forms are required for each program on offer, and all submissions will be scrutinized before final approval for inclusion in the guide. The City of Hamilton and 17STRONG encourage you to "Reach more families looking for summer opportunities" and give kids a summer to remember by showcasing your programs.

Questions regarding the submission process or any other inquiries can be directed to Sara Silva at [email protected]. As the days lengthen and the school year winds down, this collaboration between the City of Hamilton and 17STRONG is gearing up to highlight the best our local community has to offer for the coming summer.
