Summary

A board member told the advisory board that summer-camp registration requiring full-month enrollment made the program unattainable for some families and urged clearer activity descriptions and flexible weekly enrollment options.

During the SWOT conversation, a board member raised concerns that the summer-camp program required full‑month enrollment, making it difficult for families who want shorter or weekly attendance. She said promotional materials list times and cost but lack a detailed activity schedule, limiting parents’ ability to decide whether to enroll.

The board discussed possible improvements including clearer activity descriptions and offering weekly enrollment options or partial-week sessions to broaden access. Staff agreed to consider the feedback and to continue soliciting participant and coach feedback to inform adjustments.
