Summer Fun
Harvard Park and Rec's Summer Fun Program is BACK! 
Last year was such fun, we're back for more this summer! Are you a parent looking for a few hours to get things done during those long summer afternoons? Let our teen leaders take the load off!  Kids will spend time outside playing games, doing sports, hiking, doing arts and crafts and having a chance to cool off in the pond. What could be better?!

WHO: Children ages 5-11 years old
WHERE: Start and End each afternoon at Bare Hill Pond! In between, we will venture close by to the playing fields and courts at Bromfield and the Library, nature walks around the pond, and the HES playground. 
WHAT: 5 unique weeks of fun games, sports, crafts, swimming and more led by experienced college and teen leaders. All leaders are CPR/First Aid/AED certified.
TIME: 1-4pm (Drop off and pickup are both at the pond)
COST: $250 for each week (EXCEPT the first week, which is only 4 days and $200). There is a 10% discount for each additional child in a family, after the first.

Important: Each child should have a small backpack or drawstring bag with sunscreen, nut-free snack, water, and a towel. Swimsuits should be worn under clothing. Closed-toe shoes are preferred, as we will be doing running games and nature walks. 

In the event of inclement weather, we will move our fun indoors. We will play board games, do arts and crafts, and maybe show a movie. In the unlikely event that our alternative site is unavailable, we may have to cancel for that day.
