Washington Park District runs Camp Adventurers, a themed one-week day camp for children entering grades K-6, held at its recreation facility at 105 S. Spruce Street. Weeks run from early June through early August with themes such as Under the Sea, Camp Carnival and Camp Olympics, and days mix sports, crafts and themed activities with a weekly field trip and visits to the Washington Park Pool. Camp runs 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; campers bring a sack lunch, swimsuit and towel daily, and AM care from 6:30 a.m. and PM care to 6:00 p.m. are available at daily rates. The district also partners with local and international groups on separate summer athletic camps in golf, basketball, volleyball, tennis and Challenger Sports soccer.

★★★★Jason GerlachThe Washington Park District staff and administration do a good job with keeping most of the facilities operable and in nice shape. However, I would like to see the 3 park tennis courts resurfaced to remove the cracks and debris and create an environment where a game can be played without the concern of tripping on a crack. These cracks also hinder play and do not allow for true bounces of the ball. The new pickleball counts are fantastic and now I hope some attention can be given to our highly used tennis courts.
★★★Pam McCaskyWish they would do something about the air in the building. Adults doing any type of class and very little air conditioning or air circulation is not so good. I am somewhat confused when I see fans pointed at the staff members who are just sitting behind a table. Hmmm. Love my class though. Wouldn't miss it so I keep going and endure the excess heat and pray we don't collapse
★★★★★Kori BishopExcellent programs for kids of all ages. Our family has utilized the Summer Camp program for years and it has never disappointed us or our daughter. We also love the opportunity the competitive cheer and tumbling teams gives our daughter.
★★★★★Sarah SutterWe love the building blocks and stepping Stones 2 day a week classes for 2-3yr olds and 3-5yr olds. Julie, the director for the children's classes is absolutely fabulous. Very friendly, easy to talk to and does a great job running the program.
