Weekly Camp Themes

Arts and Culture (June 3, 2024 - June 21, 2024)

Using the theme of Empathy as the backdrop, campers will start MPRD Kids Summer Camp off celebrating arts and culture! They will learn compassion and acceptance of others by participating in empathy skits, learning about customs and traditions of cultures around the world, and honoring the celebration of Juneteenth! Weekly routines will consist of daily wellness checks, mindful movement activities, swim days and field trips, and we will end this three-week session with a Juneteenth Cookout at Michael Dow Amphitheater! Bring on the fun!

Sports and Fitness (June 24, 2024 - July 12, 2024)

For this theme, we will start our session off learning new sports and games from all over the world! Have you ever heard of Tuvalu and the game of Te Ano? By the end of this three-week funfest, our MPRD Kids campers will be able to tell you all about it! They will also be exploring the connection between sports & STEM and participating in daily functional fitness drills & practices to prepare them for our annual MPRD Kids Summer Camp Kids Cup! Empathy topics will include sportsmanship and cooperation. Campers will also engage in discussions on healthy eating habits.

Educational and STEM (June 15, 2024 - August 2, 2024)

Science! Technology! Engineering! Mathematics! These final weeks are all about STEM! Throughout the summer campers participate in daily small STEM projects as a part of their daily rotations. Campers will now have the opportunity to create and engage with larger-than-life projects to be presented at our MPRD Kids Camp Science Fair! Ecology is the primary focus topic as campers learn empathy for their environment by way of understanding their personal relationship to and impact on their surroundings. Think "Reduce! Reuse! Recycle!" They will also be visited by the Mobile Firefighters Department.
