Hood River Parks and Rec Youth Programs

Summer Kidz Camp is a fun, community‑focused day camp for 6-12 year olds where kids can play, explore, and be themselves. Each week features a new theme filled with hands‑on activities—outdoor games, creative projects, team challenges, sports, and choice‑based play—designed to spark curiosity and build confidence.

Campers will cool off with regular pool days at the Hood River Aquatic Center and head out on local and PNW adventures throughout the summer, making every week feel fresh and exciting. With supportive staff, welcoming groups, and tons of opportunities to learn, move, and create, Summer Kidz Camp is the perfect place for kids to make friends and unforgettable memories all summer long.
