In spring and summer, we have many offerings for the community from toddlers to seniors. Some outdoor activities include: baseball, soccer, tennis, softball leagues and gardening. For those of you who are not ready to go outside yet, we offer indoor activities as well. Some of those activities include: dance , art, Tae Kwon Do, fitness classes and a variety of toddler programs. Beginning in June, we offer the summer playground program for children ages 5-13. It is an 7 week program Monday – Friday from 9AM – 4PM We have three locations: Pulaski Park, Playfair Park, and the Colonial Hamtramck Hous-ing. The children will be involved in activities including swimming, field trips, arts & crafts. We also offer various camps for your children to enjoy.
