Summer Planning

Registration for summer day camps, summer programming, begins May 10

May 6, 2022 | 8:00 AM

Red Deerians can prepare to sign up for Summer Day Camps and all other summer arts and recreation programs next week.

City officials say new program options are viewable now on My Activity Guide, and registration will begin on Tuesday, May 10 at 12:00 noon.

Is your little swimmer ready to sail off to the not-so-salty seas of the G.H. Dawe for Shipwrecked? Does your tiny dancer want to explore their talent with Summer Dance Discovery at Culture Services? Or perhaps your sporty sprout is ready to take on Basketball FUNdamentals at the Collicutt Centre.

All of these camps, and so many more, say City officials, are included in the summer registration session. Families are encouraged to register their children early to guarantee a spot.

Day Camps aim to provide children with an opportunity to play, explore, create friendships and experience time in the pool and outdoors while providing families with quality childcare during summer break.

Summer Day camps run from July 4 – Aug. 31, 2022 and are available in week-long full and half day options. Red Deerians can review camp options now by visiting www.reddeer.ca/DayCamps or by picking up a paper copy of the day camps guide at City arts & recreation facilities.

All other summer programs including swim lessons, fitness and wellness, preschool, arts & culture opportunities and more will also be available for registration beginning on Tuesday, May 10.

Red Deerians can create their own custom Activity Guide to review all summer program options at www.reddeer.ca/MyActivityGuide. Programs are viewable in the same fashion as they were in the previously produced paper guide. Customers can create their own custom guide and select categories, age groups and locations relevant to them and their families.

Red Deerians are encouraged to visit their Look’ n Book accounts prior to registration day to ensure access is up to date. For any questions regarding account access please contact Recreation at 403-309-8411.

Registration for summer programs begins at 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 10. There are three ways to register for City of Red Deer programs:

To note, the City has updated its system to serve online registrants more quickly. Confirmation emails will be sent within 24 hours in an effort to reduce the immediate load on the City’s online systems.
