North
Little Rock Parks and Recreation wants to help your child grow to become a
strong independent adult.
Like a sapling and a tree, youth
require encouragement, nourishment and skills to grow into a strong well
rooted adult.
It is NLRPR’s goal to offer the youth
of North Little Rock and surrounding communities this chance by providing
the necessary encouragement, skills and nourishment during the summer
months through the NLRPR Summer Activities Program (SAPling). Your child
will have the opportunity to grow physically and emotionally.
Boys and girls going into
the 1st* thru 6th grades in the
Fall of 2010 will have
the occasion to participate daily in fun and safe recreation activities
such as sports, fitness, arts, humanities and life skills. Field trips will be taken
and entrance fees are included in the cost of the session.
*Students entering the 1st grade should bring a copy of their Kindergarten report card with their registration form.
This program
participates in the USDA Summer Food Program
for both free breakfast and lunch during Focus Camps Sessions 1, 2, and 3 (June 14 -
August 6).
A limited number of slots are available at each center.
SAPling is not a certified DHS daycare.
