Macon-Bibb County Parks & Rec Summer Camp - Rosa Jackson

Rosa Jackson · $60/week

Recreational summer day camp offering various activities for children at Rosa Jackson Community Center.

▌ Editor's read The provided URL leads to a page detailing summer camp offerings by Macon-Bibb County Parks & Recreation, specifically mentioning the Rosa Jackson Community Center as one of the locations (maconbibb.us/summercamps42922/). The camp is a day camp, operating from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM, Monday through Friday, for children aged 5-12. The cost is explicitly stated as $30 per week. The camp is run by a municipal entity, Macon-Bibb County, classifying its owner type as 'municipal-parks'. While the website lists activities like arts & crafts, games, and field trips, it lacks specific details regarding staff-to-camper ratios or explicit language about staff background checks. A search of the ACA directory did not yield accreditation for this specific program. The Macon-Bibb County government has a Facebook page (facebook.com/MaconBibbCounty) which occasionally posts about Parks & Rec events, but no dedicated Instagram handle for the summer camp was found.
