▌ Editor's read The Chattanooga Community Center Summer Camp is a day camp program for youth aged 5-12, operated by the City of Chattanooga's Department of Community Development. The website, chattanooga.gov/government/community-development/community-centers/community-center-summer-camp, loads successfully and provides details about the program, including a weekly cost of $8.75 for non-residents. The camp runs from May 28 to August 2, 2024, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, offering activities like arts and crafts, sports, and field trips. While the website mentions a registration process and required forms, it does not explicitly state information regarding staff background checks or staff-to-camper ratios. The camp is not listed in the ACA directory. The City of Chattanooga Parks and Outdoors has a Facebook page (@ChattanoogaParksAndOutdoors) which promotes various city programs, including summer camps. Google reviews for 'Chattanooga Community Center Summer Camp' are not specific enough to provide a consolidated rating or count for this particular program, as results often refer to individual community centers or general city services.
