Advertisers Wanted! A goal of the Kaukauna Recreation Department is to increase communications with the citizens that utilize our services. To achieve this goal, we have created three seasonal Program Guides (Winter/Spring (Dec 1), Summer (Apr 1) and Fall/Winter (Aug 1)). Your organization can be a part of helping us achieve our goal by placing a full color advertisement in these Program Guides. In addition to reaching potential customers, your ad tells citizens that you are committed to helping improve the quality of life for all Kaukauna residents and visitors. For more information on ad space availability and pricing, please contact the Recreation Department office at 920-766-6335.

Upcoming Fall Programs Please watch for our Fall Program Guide which will be distributed in the beginning of August and will feature programs such as: - Flag Football - Boys Little Dribblers - Football Fundamentals - Fitness Classes - Fall Gymnastics - Parent/Infant Swim Lessons - Dance Instruction - Preschool Swim Lessons - Adult Kickball Leagues - Adult Open Gym Basketball - Phantoms Wrestling - XYZ Group - Girls Little Dribblers - Strong Bones - Archery League - Health Living Seminars - Lil Mad Lat Art Classes - Volleyball Instruction - And More!

If you have a hobby, interest, expertise or special talent, and you would like to offer a program through us please contact Jeff Malloy (920) 766-6335. I will sit down with you and work through all of the details necessary to create your new program including facilities, equipment, costs, revenues, and staffing. I also welcome your suggestions for new programs and will research the feasibility of offering a related program.

Help Wanted! Applications will be accepted for Seasonal, Part-Time Summer Staff.
