Parks Offer ‘After School Reimagined’ Fall Camp Programs for Youth

Long Beach Parks, Recreation and Marine (PRM) is launching a series of after school camp programs for youth through the fall season with lower staff-to camper ratios and other enhanced safety protocols.

The ‘After School Reimagined’ programs will be offered Mondays through Fridays from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. beginning Sept. 8. Youth can participate in fitness activities, games and crafts, homework help and more. The cost of the program is $10 per week, per participant, and scholarships are available. 

Program registration will be available online on the PRM website starting Sept. 4. In-person registration will also be available on Sept. 4 from 8 a.m. to noon at the PRM office (2760 N. Studebaker Rd.), Pan American Park (5157 E. Centralia St.), Martin Luther King Jr. Park (1950 Lemon Ave.), Silverado Park (1545 W. 31st St.) and Belmont Plaza Pool (4320 E. Olympic Plaza). 

Residents can make appointments to register in-person after Sept. 4 by calling 562-570-3150.

After school programs will be offered at 21 locations throughout the City, including at Scherer Park, at 4600 Long Beach Blvd.
