The ins and outs of one of the largest groups of day camp providers, Parks & Rec departments!

Municipal Parks and Rec. programs might have more day campers across North America each summer than all the private camps in the United States combined. They are local, convenient, and tax-subsidized affordable.

The multi-tasking people who lead these summer programs are local heroes who put together engaging, memorable experiences with shoe-string budgets, limited facilities, and a WHOLE LOT of creativity that we can all learn from. For all of our Parks & Rec. frontline worker listeners, this episode is for YOU.
