Our Summer Day Camps are about creating memories, exploring new adventures, making friends, and celebrating being a kid.

Play!

School's out for summer, and we're ready for the recreation to start. Our summer day camps are focused on exploring and discovering the fun things in life. Camps have a wide curriculum of activities to keep campers moving and having fun. Campers will swim, read, play sports, practice yoga, get outside, craft, garden, build, go on field trip adventures, and gain new skills to last a lifetime.

During Summer Day Camp, participants will experience:

  • Recreation and Leisure Skill Building
  • Physical Fitness Through Active Play
  • Social Development
  • Nutrition Awareness
  • Nature Interaction

Registration opens at 10:00 AM on Monday, January 26!

Financial Assistance

Lincoln Parks and Recreation offers financial assistance to help families access summer programs. Support options include:

Child Care Subsidy (DHHS)

Nebraska DHHS may cover part or all of your camp fees if your household meets income guidelines and eligibility requirements. Families must apply through iServe Nebraska (https://iserve.nebraska.gov) and complete a phone interview. Approved locations include Air Park, Belmont, Calvert and McPhee. Depending on income, some families may pay a small monthly fee, while DHHS covers the rest.

Parks and Recreation Scholarships

If your family does not qualify for Child Care Subsidy or if your camp location does not accept Child Care Subsidy, you may apply for an income-based scholarship. Discounts range from 10% to 50% based on household size and income. For details, contact your local recreation center.
