Registration for Red Deer summer camps and programming begins May 9

May 5, 2023 | 6:14 PM

Red Deerians can now prepare to sign up for all summer programming and Day Camps.

New program options were made viewable this Thursday on the city’s My Activity Guide and registration will begin on Tuesday, May 9 at noon.

“Is your little swimmer ready to sail off to the not-so-salty seas of the G.H. Dawe Community Centre for Shipwrecked? Does your creative kid want to explore the colourful world of visual and performing arts at the Intermediate School? Or perhaps your sporty sprout is ready to take on Sports Extravaganza at the Collicutt Centre. All these camps, and so many more, are included in the summer registration session,” said the city in a release.

Families are being encouraged to register their children early to guarantee a spot.

DAY CAMPS

The City says Summer 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. They will be running from July 4 – August 30, 2023 and are available in week-long full or half day options.

New to the selection this summer are the two-hour teen sport camps.

Red Deerians can review camp options by visiting www.reddeer.ca/DayCamps or by picking up a paper copy of the guide at City arts & recreation facilities.

SUMMER PROGRAMS

Red Deerians can create their own custom Activity Guide to review all summer program options at www.reddeer.ca/MyActivityGuide and select categories, age groups and locations relevant to them and their families.

The City says programs are viewable in the same fashion as they were in the previously produced paper guide.

Those interested are being 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, contact Recreation at 403-309-8411.

There are three ways to register for the programs:

  • Online through My Activity Guide at reddeer.ca/MyActivityGuide
  • By phone: 403-309-8411
  • In person at Collicutt Centre, G.H. Dawe Community Centre, Recreation Centre or Michener Centre

The City says they have updated their system to serve online registrants more efficiently. They state that confirmation emails will be sent within 24 hours in an effort to reduce the immediate load to online systems.
