How to enroll your kids in city-led camps and activities this summer

We just started spring, but the countdown to summer is on.

Officials say now is the time for parents to sign their kids up for one of the city's thousands of youth programs, which include camps at rec centers, reading and science activities at the Free Library, and community pools and swim lessons.

“We are officially asking Philadelphia’s families and residents to join us in counting down to a safe, fun and fabulous Philadelphia summer,” said Parks and Recreation Commissioner Kathryn Ott Lovell.
