Have you heard about Ogden City’s Summer Recreation Program?
The program is all about giving kids who have completed kindergarten, but not started the 6th grade something to do on the weekdays during the summer.
When I was a kid, it introduced me to a lot of new friends and kept me busy. Granted this was over 15 years ago, but recreation went a little something like this: In the mornings, we usually played board games. Then, we would walk to the nearest school for free lunch. After lunch, we would head back to the park for a sports game, like kickball or flag football. We had fieldtrips every so often to places like Lorin Farr swimming pool or Wheeler Creek trail. And we made tie-dye shirts, boondoggle keychains and all sorts of other crafts.
This year, the program will be offered at 5 different parks:
- Bonneville Park, 2nd and Monroe Blvd.
- 4th St./Romrell Park, 4th St and Childs Ave.
- Grandview Park,3815 Jackson Ave.
- Jaycee Park, 25th and Fillmore Ave.
- Rolling Hills Park, 1500 E. 12th St.
It runs Monday through Friday, 11:00 a.m. to 3:p.m., June 13th through July 22nd. And the most awesome part is…It’s only $15 for Ogden residents and $20 for non-residents. You can get the registration form here, but you have to register in person at the Ogden City Recreation Office at 1875 Monroe Blvd.
If you know someone who would be interested in this program, pass it along. Tell a friend or share this post on Facebook or Twitter.

I am interested, I have 8 year old twins who would love this, I couldn't find any info on it this year. My oldest did this program years ago and LOVED it. Can I get a registration form at the recreation office? I can't get the link to open for some reason.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Sorry the link wasn't working. Try copying and pasting this address.

If that doesn't work, I am pretty sure you can get a form at the recreation office. You have to go there to register anyways. The address is 1875 Monroe Blvd.
Recreation is awesome. I hope your twins have a lot of fun there. :)
