We will also travel to Sweatt Beach on Wednesdays after lunch. Children will be tranported by bus to the beach and parents will pick-up at Sweatt Beach at 3PM. Registration will remain open through the summer. Summer Playground is open to children from Wrentham, Norfolk, Plainville and surrounding towns. Here are the program details:

Registration is by the week or by the day. The daily registration link is at the top of the list. Children must be registered online by 8AM on any day they wish to attend. If you make a partial payment when you register, the balance must be paid prior to the start of the week attending.
The Rice Complex location gives us a covered patio, bathrooms, use of the D'Amico Playground, basketball courts, volleyball court, and lots of field space to run and hike. There will be games, sports, arts and crafts, water games, quiet activities and more! We will not have an indoor space, so in the event of a "wash out" day, the program will be canceled. If it begins to rain heavily or thunder/lightning during the day the children will need to picked up early. If it is a quick passing shower/thunderstorm we will house the children temporarily in the Recreation building until it is safe to return outside. If the day needs to be canceled due to weather, an email will be sent by 8AM to let you know. Click the link below to print out the information sheet, which includes a list of what your child should bring to camp each day as well as phone numbers for the program director and site director should you need to contact us during the camp day.
