               At the City of El Cerrito Recreation Department we
               pride ourselves on being experts in the field of FUN!
               We know that children want to explore activities that
               delight them. We offer each child a unique experience
               through an incredible variety of programs. You can
               rely on our highly competent staff to engage with your
               child in the way that best meets their needs, while
               knowing that safety is our highest priority.

               FUN – we ensure that our camps are fun and filled with enriching
               experiences for our campers!

               UNIQUE – our flexibility allows you to mix programs to best fit
               the individual needs of your family.

               VARIETY – between our own City-run programs and those we
               provide through trend-setting independent contractors, the
               options to you and your family abound!

               COMPETENT – our Community Services Coordinators and
               lead staff come to you with a rare blend of expertise, experience
               and passion.

               SAFETY – camp staff receive a thorough background check
               investigation, which is followed up by training in CPR & First
               Aid, active supervision, child-safe expectations and field trip
               transportation protocol.

                      Traditional Camps
                    Traditional camps give your child a summer they will always
                    remember. Our traditional camps provide an opportunity to
                    make new friends, learn new skills and get the most out
                    of classic camp activities. Each week has themed activities
                    and a special event. Camps become more field trip oriented
                    as children get older to keep experiences fresh and new –
                    even for those campers who have been with us for years.
                    Join us for one week or for the whole summer and make
                    memories and friends to last all year!

                    A typical day of traditional camp is 9am-4pm.
                    Extended care is included at no additional cost
                    from 7-9am and 4-6pm.
