The DC Department of Parks and Recreation will offer full day Spring Break Camp programs for children ages 3-12 in recreation centers throughout the city from April 1, 2013 -April 5, 2013. DPR provides youth with a variety of structured games, activities, sports, arts and crafts, and field trips. Our goal is to plant the seeds of personal development and environmental responsibility in a fun, engaging recreation setting.

Activities within the program will include sports, games, character education exercises, and art and crafts. All camps will also go swimming and take at least one field trip.
