P.A. Day Heritage Camp !

Caught by surprise by the upcoming P.A. Day on May 16, and wondering what to do about the children while you’re at work? The City of Pickering has the ideal solution! Register now for the Culture & Recreation Division’s P.A. Day Heritage Camp! Space is limited, so don’t delay.

Pickering Museum Village, offers a full day of activities and games all with a heritage flavour that will ensure your child has a fun P.A. Day. Imagine the thrills that await a child on a beautiful May day. Outdoor play has never been so fun, as children try hopscotch, old fashioned baseball, and some gardening, too. Spring also means hand-made butter on freshly baked bread, warm off the griddle. And spring means making and flying kites! There are tons of activities to amuse girls and boys, so sign your child up for a day to play in the past.

Children must be between the ages of 5 and 12. The camp runs from 9:00 am to 3:15 pm, with an Extend-a-Camp option at an additional cost for parents who need to drop off their children as early as 7:00 am and pick them up as late as 6:00 pm. Campers must be dropped off and picked up at the Pickering Museum Village, conveniently located 3 km east of Brock Road, just off Hwy #7.

Registration for the City of Pickering’s programs has never been so easy, and there are 6 Simple Ways to register your child for camp today. Go online to cityofpickering.com or call the Museum Village at 905.683.8401 to discuss registration options.
