Once again the Whitehall Township Recreation Bureau will be hosting Camp Whitehall, a day camp for children who have completed Kindergarten thru Eighth Grade as of June 2009. This year we will again have three sites with 50 children per site per week. The Cementon Playground will host children who have completed grades K thru 2, the Jefferson Street Playground will host children who have completed grades 3 and 4, and the Schadt Avenue Playground will host children who have completed grades 5 thru 8. Campers at Schadt Avenue will be bused to the Parkview (Hokey) Pool for swimming.
This camp, offering 280 total hours of fun and exciting camp experience, will run from June 22nd through August 14th, between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. As always, this camp will provide a safe and wonderful experience while building character, appreciation, and respect for one another and our surroundings. Special field trips will also occur, as well as sports, arts and crafts, games, and swimming. Transportation is provided, although parents can transport their children to and from camp if they wish. Swim Lessons will be provided at an additional charge of $25.00 per session available in the months of June and July.
