Miami-Dade County Parks - Country Village Park Summer Camp
A general summer camp offering various recreational activities at Country Village Park.
▌ Editor's read The Miami-Dade County Parks summer camp program, including the Country Village Park location, is operated by Miami-Dade County Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces, indicating a municipal-parks ownership type. The primary website, miamidade.gov/summercamps/, loads successfully and provides general information about the summer camp offerings. The program is a day camp, as evidenced by the 'Summer Day Camps' title and descriptions of daily activities. The website explicitly states that 'All camp staff and volunteers are subject to background checks,' confirming the presence of background check language. While the website lists various activities like sports, arts and crafts, and field trips, it does not provide specific staff-to-camper ratios. The program is not ACA accredited, as a search of the ACA directory for 'Miami-Dade County Parks' or 'Country Village Park' yielded no results. Social media presence is strong, with active Instagram (@miamidadeparks) and Facebook (MiamiDadeParks) accounts, which frequently post updates and photos related to park activities, including summer camps. The website does not specify a founder or years of operation for the summer camp program itself, though the parks department has a long history. No specific state or provincial license numbers for the camp were found on the provided URL.
