Looking for camp locations?

Spring break and summer vacations are right around the corner and the same question plagues parents "where am I going to send my kids?" Even if you do not live within the City of Miami you can take advantage of the camp programs. We also recommend parents to also look at parks that might be located close to their places of work to make it convenient to pick and drop off their children.

At the moment our paid camps will be held at:

West End Park............250 SW 60 Avenue.........(305) 264 - 0341

Grapeland Park...........1550 NW 37 Avenue.......(305) 634-5624

Coral Gate Park .........1415 SW 32 Avenue.........(305) 442-0377

Jose Marti Park...........351 SW 4 Street...............(305) 575-2103
