Holiday Park Camps to Expand with Summer Programs by 2027

The Parks, Recreation, and Beaches Board Meeting held on March 26, 2025, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, focused on upcoming summer camp offerings and the management of holiday park camps.

During the meeting, board members discussed the introduction of new summer camps slated for 2027. These camps are expected to complement existing programs rather than replace them. The board noted that the holiday park camps would likely be managed by the new program, ensuring continuity in offerings for local families.

Questions arose regarding the capacity of the camps, with each site accommodating between 10 to 20 participants, depending on the facility size. It was reported that the current sessions attract approximately 5,200 participants across all offerings, indicating a high demand for these recreational programs.

The meeting concluded with a recognition of the popularity of the camps, as they tend to fill up quickly, highlighting the community's interest in recreational activities for children. Further discussions on the implementation of these camps and their impact on existing programs are anticipated in future meetings.
