Summer Kid's Camp
June 16 - August 29, 2008
The 2008 Mort Harris Recreation & Fitness Center Summer camps for ages 4–6 yrs. / 7–10 yrs., utilizes our state of the art facilities to provide campers with the most exciting day-camp opportunity in the Detroit area. We look forward to having your child participate in our seventh year of this quality program. Our counselors organize programs according to the individual themes of each session to maximize the camping experience. Children will improve their physical fitness levels through well-rounded instruction and playtime including rock climbing, team building, outdoor games, learning activities, art projects and more. We have worked hard to improve the quality of our program and we are proud to announce for the seventh year in a row, we have not raised our prices!
