Registration for Fun Camps and Fall Recsters Coming Soon

Our Recsters programs host kids for fun days before and after school during the school year, and really go crazy during the summer with weekday summer camp for kids who have completed grades kindergarten through sixth, a junior councilor option for rising seventh graders, and Knight Riders for rising sixth through ninth graders held Monday through Thursday. Registration for these programs will begin soon and are expected to fill quickly.

Registration for current school year Recsters and past summer participants can register March 1 to 31, 2023. Registration in-person at the Community Center is required so staff can confirm eligibility for this early registration period. Open registration begins April 3, 2023, online at northliberty.recdesk.com.

Knight Riders

This program is designed to get young adults active this summer on their bike and in their community. Participants will need a working bike (the Iowa City Bike Library offers some used bikes for lower cost) and helmet for their rides in North Liberty and Coralville area. Mornings are spent with games, crafts, projects and riding. Afternoons will be spent swimming, games, outdoor activities and field trips. The program looks to do at least one large community service project each week along with smaller projects within the city as well as help with the Summer Lunch & Fun program.

This program is designed for the participants to be active parts of the program planning process and to develop activities that excite and motivate them. This is a great way to give something back to your community, meet new friends, and have fun this summer! The program is open for students entering grades sixth through nineth.
