▌ Editor's read The provided URL leads to the City of Detroit Parks & Recreation registration portal, which lists 'Recreation Summer Day Camp' as an offering. This indicates the camp is run by a municipal parks department. There is no specific page for the Crowell Recreation Center's summer camp, making it difficult to ascertain program specifics, staff qualifications, or safety protocols. The camp is not listed in the ACA directory. Google reviews for 'Crowell Recreation Center' show a 4.4-star rating from 10 reviews, but these reviews are for the center generally, not specifically the summer camp. The program type is clearly day camp. Information regarding staff-to-camper ratios, background checks, or specific daily schedules is not available on the general registration portal.
