PRCS offers two summer playground programs at the City of Racine parks:
Registered Summer Playground Program
The PRCS Registered Playground program provides kids with a fun-filled and memory-making summer experience through organized games, field trips, free play and weekly special events. It’s the best way for your child to spend their summers outside having fun, while making new friends. Registered Playgrounds is divided into four age groups: Kiddie Korner (Ages 4-6), Future (Grades 1-3), Play It Again (Grades 4-5), Bigs (Grades 6-8). Each age group is supervised by two college students extensively trained as Playground Leaders. Children are required to be checked in and out by an authorized adult. See below for program and location information.
