MPRDKids Summer Camps - Hillsdale Community Center

Hillsdale Community Center · $25/week

A summer day camp at Hillsdale Community Center offering various recreational activities for children.

▌ Editor's read The MPRDKids Summer Camps, including the Hillsdale Community Center location, are operated by the City of Mobile Parks and Recreation Department (cityofmobile.gov/parks-rec/mprdkids-summer-camps/). This indicates a municipal ownership structure. The program is a day camp, as evidenced by the 'Summer Camps' description and the lack of any mention of overnight stays. The cost is explicitly stated as $25 per week, making it a very affordable option. While the website mentions 'fun-filled activities,' specific details about the daily schedule, staff-to-camper ratios, or safety policies like background checks are not provided on the main camp page. The City of Mobile Parks and Recreation Department maintains an active presence on social media, with an Instagram handle @mprdal and a Facebook handle MPRDAL, which could offer additional insights into camp activities and community engagement. There is no indication of ACA accreditation or state licensing information for summer camps in Alabama readily available on the website or through general searches.
