Time is approaching to sign up for Lee County’s popular summer camps.
Lee County Parks & Recreation Summer Camp registration opens at 7 a.m. on Monday, Feb. 26. Registration is expected to draw thousands of youngsters to programs, outings and activities at the department’s traditional camps, middle school camps and specialty camps.
Traditional camps are for children who have completed kindergarten through fifth grade. Middle school camps are for sixth through eighth grades. Specialty and special needs camps ages vary; check locations for specific ages.
Summer camp runs for eight weeks from June 10 through Aug. 2. The cost for traditional and middle school camps are $75 per week per child. Specialty camps vary; check location for price. For locations, visit www.leeparks.org .
Parents are encouraged to sign up early. Camp registration is ongoing as long as space is available.
Parents will be able to register for summer camp at Wa-Ke Hatchee Recreation Center this year. The center was closed last summer and is currently closed for building renovations from Hurricane Ian damages. It is set to reopen before summer camp begins.
Helpful tips from the registration desk:
¦ To register for camp at one of the three large recreation centers — Estero, North Fort Myers, or Veterans Park in Lehigh Acres — obtain a membership first by visiting the location.
¦ If you currently have a membership at one of these facilities, make sure it is active by calling or visiting the location selected.
¦ Wa-Ke Hatchee Recreation Center will not require a membership at registration. Memberships will be collected at the start of the summer camp program.
¦ A household account at www.webtrac. leegov.com is needed to register online.
¦ Registration for swimming lessons and other aquatics programs begins Wednesday, March 6.
Camp sites will participate in countywide initiatives, such as service-learning projects, fitness and wellness programs and National Park and Recreation Month. ¦
