In response to the ongoing wildfires, we are opening Department of Recreation and Park Support Camps to provide a supportive and safe environment for children and families impacted by the Palisades fires.
These camps are designed to assist families under mandatory evacuations or those affected by the wildfires, offering a space where children ages 5-17 years old can learn, play, and thrive while parents focus on recovery. Our camps are here to bring a sense of normalcy, fun, and community to families during this difficult time. Including music, arts and craft, sports activities, field trips and more.
Let us help your children thrive while you focus on what matters most.
Our two support Camps, will also include teen centers open to youth ages 13 -17, with extended program hours from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM. These teen centers will offer age-appropriate activities and a safe space for older youth to connect, engage, and receive support during this challenging time. Our camps are here to bring a sense of normalcy, fun, and community to families during this difficult time. Let us help your children and teens thrive while you focus on what matters most.
