Henry County Parks and Recreation Offers Summer Day and Teen Camps

Campers enjoy fishing during last year’s camp.

The end of another school year is upon us and what better way to keep your kids busy and happy all summer long than by participating in Henry County Parks and Recreation’s Summer Day and Teen Camps?

The Henry County Parks and Recreation Department is once again offering a Summer Day Camp and a Teen Camp, both promising to be fun-filled summer experiences. Field trips for both camps include the World of Coke, CNN, Southern Belle Farm, the Yellow River Ranch, the Varsity, Rock Ranch, Fernbank and Dixieland. Children in the Day Camp will enjoy swimming at High Falls State Park and campers with the Teen Camp will enjoy weekly outings to Six Flags and Six Flags White Water.

Camps begin May 29 and continue all summer long until August 3. Day camp runs from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. each weekday and is for children ages 6 to 12.  Teen Camp is for ages 13 to 15 and runs from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. There will be no camp the week of July 2-6.  Camps will be held at Heritage Park in McDonough, the Locust Grove Recreation Center in Locust Grove,
J. P. Moseley Recreation Center in Stockbridge, the Fairview Recreation Center in Stockbridge and Nash Farm Park in Hampton.
 
These camps are one of the most affordable camps in the metro area. Each week of Day Camp costs $100 for the first child and $90 for each additional child.  Teen Camp is $135, and includes a season pass to Six Flags and White Water if the teen is registered for at least two weeks.  Families may register for any or all weeks of camp, but space is limited. 

For more information about either summer camp, or to learn how to register, please call 770.288.7300 or visit www.hcprd.org.
