Baldwin Park opens registration for spring day camp; staff clarify hours, capacity and fee discrepancy
Summary
City staff opened registration for spring day camp during school spring break week, running 6 a.m.–6 p.m. for ages 5–12 with capacity set at 100; staff cited a $20 registration fee and different references to weekly fees (one speaker said $65 for residents, another said $95).
Program supervisor April Rojo presented details about Baldwin Park's spring day camp, which will be held in rooms at the community center formerly used by the Boys & Girls Club. The camp runs Monday–Friday during spring break from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. for children ages 5–12, and staff said the program is open to nonresidents.
Rojo said the camp has a capacity set at 100 with some flexibility depending on staffing and that children are grouped by age. She described partner activities provided by Kaiser Permanente and the Valley County Water District and noted lunch is not included; parents should provide lunches.
Staff clarified fees during the discussion: a $20 registration fee was stated, but there were two different references to the weekly program fee—one speaker noted $65 (resident rate) while another said $95. The transcript does not resolve which weekly fee applies to which category; parents should consult the registration flyer or city staff for final pricing.
Rojo emphasized staff experience operating full-day camps and said the city has adequate staffing to manage the program.
