1060032 - Camp REC

Camp REC Session 2 is the exciting next offering by the Glenview Park District and their partner, Wesley Child Care, for children K-8. This program continues the convenient, self-directed E-Learning opportunities at various locations throughout Glenview, while complimenting the hybrid learning approach recently announced by Glenview School District 34. Camp REC Session 2 will provide participants with Recreation, Enrichment and a sense of Community. Children will be assigned to pods of 15 participants or less in a format that meets all health and safety guidelines for Phase 4 of the Restore Illinois plan.

Camp REC Session 2 will provide two camp options, school day hours or school day plus extended before/after care hours. This program will benefit families looking to schedule programming 5 days a week that alternates between in-person hybrid learning and asynchronous E-Learning. Camp REC pods will also continue to offer campers with recreational activities including indoor/outdoor games, arts and crafts, and sports. Camp REC leaders will coordinate the day’s activities around E-Learning schedules. The number of spaces available for the program will be very limited, based on space and staffing needs, so act fast to register. This program is for Glenview Park District residents only.

Camp REC pods will take place at various locations in Glenview including park district facilities and fieldhouses. Pods and locations have been expanded to better cover Glenview geography and make transportation arrangements more convenient. Assignments to the pods will be based on what school your child attends. Pods will potentially have children of mixed grade levels at the same site. We will not accommodate pod placement or location requests.

The Park District and Glenview School District 34 have been collaborating to align District 34 bus service with at least some of the Camp REC pod locations. Due to the complexity of developing bus routes for the multiple school schedules, and the limit of 50 riders per CDC guidelines, District 34 has not yet finalized the routes. We will work with them to share transportation information as soon as it is available.

At the time that Session 2 begins, parents will be responsible for transportation between Camp REC and school. For parents interested in bussing options through District 34, a Stop Change Request will need to be submitted to the school. More information will be available on the District 34 transportation page.
