Without usual summer camp, Tucker amends programs for families

The city of Tucker is unable to hold a traditional summer camp this year due to the coronavirus, but it still plans to offer a slate of recreational and educational options for families.

The programming is set to begin June 1, and includes activities for both children and adults.

The options include:

Youth and adult yoga classes in Kelley Cofer Park
Youth and family theater classes in Kelley Cofer Park
Kids recreation time (at various sites in Tucker)
STEM and creativity time at Tucker Nature Preserve
Youth and adult sports at Fitzgerald Field

Families can register for the summer activities online. If you previously registered for the summer camp, email parks@tuckerga.gov for a refund of the deposit or to have the deposit applied to the cost of a summer activity.
