▌ Editor's read The Macon-Bibb County Parks & Recreation Summer Camp, specifically the Frank Johnson location, is a day camp program for children aged 5-12. The camp is operated by Macon-Bibb County Parks & Recreation, indicating a municipal ownership structure (maconbibb.us/summercamps42922/). The cost is notably low at $30 per week, which is explicitly stated on the provided URL. The website lists multiple community centers as camp locations, including Frank Johnson Recreation Center, and mentions activities like games, crafts, and field trips. However, the site lacks detailed information regarding staff qualifications, staff-to-camper ratios, or specific safety policies, including whether background checks are conducted for staff. There is no mention of ACA accreditation, and a search of the ACA directory did not yield results for this specific program. The Macon-Bibb County government maintains a Facebook page (@MaconBibbCounty) which occasionally posts about Parks & Recreation events, but a dedicated camp social media presence was not found.
