Parents, summer is almost here. Have you thought about day care? Why not try Parks and Recreation of Topeka’s Sports Camp program at Oakland Community Center. We are a licensed day care that provides an opportunity for children ages 6-13 to experience a variety of activities. In a span of ten weeks, your child will learn the basic fundamentals and playing skills of many different sports and other camp games. Our staff will work to develop new skills and improve existing skills. Included with these sports, is swimming every day and your child won’t want to miss our ever popular “Wacky Races” week! Sports Camp has an experienced staff and also offers a hot lunch program for many of the weeks. Remember, the summer’s short, so let them play hard and have fun!

Sign your child up today for a memorable experience at Sports Camp for the games, friendships, and counselors! There are ten great weeks to choose from so act fast.

Transportation pick-up/drop-off times will vary at each center (Central Park and Crestview). Please designate at registration which center you will utilize as a pick-up/drop-off point.

We reserve the right to eliminate a drop-off site if minimum enrollment is not met. NOTE: Children may also be dropped off after 7:15am and picked up before 5:30pm at Oakland Community Center.
