Summer Recreation Programs - The Parks and Recreation Department began youth programming the
week of June 15 by offering our free park program, Kids Corner for ages 6-12. The Kids Corner park
program keeps kids busy with constructive games and activities that promote positive social interaction
with others by encouraging participation and respect. Our
Recreation Leaders bring equipment for active group games along
with fun arts & crafts supplies to the scheduled parks. All games
and activities are following social distance recommendations and
safety of all participants is our top priority. We are constantly
reviewing guidelines from the CDC and State of Minnesota to stay
up to date on best practices for youth programming. This is the first
summer we have offered a morning and afternoon Kids Corner
programs and it has been very well received.
