Summer Camp

Do you need summer camp for your children? Colchester Parks and Recreation provides a fantastic summer camp and scholarships are available for residents who need assistance. Summer can provide some challenges for working parents who need a safe, fun place for their child/children to be while they’re at work. This is especially challenging for families who cannot afford the full cost of summer camp. Colchester Parks and Recreation offers scholarships for families based on need so that all children have access to summer programming.

If you’d like to find out if you’re eligible for a summer camp scholarship please reach out directly to Colchester Youth and Social Services at (860) 537-7255.
