The City of Airdrie offers many boredom-busting school-year and summer day camps at Genesis Place!
Please note registration forms for day camps are now electronic and are part of the online registration process. Those needing to update registrant information between enrolment and participation are asked to please contact daycamps@airdrie.ca.
The City of Airdrie has school year day camp options at Genesis Place to keep your kids busy during breaks throughout the school year.
*Minimum numbers must be met for camps to run.
The City of Airdrie offers summer day camps at Genesis Place. Registration for summer camps begins April 6, at 8 a.m. for Airdrie & Rocky View County residents. Open registration begins April 10, at 8 a.m.
Enrol in day camps focused on activity, exploration or creativity. Each week focuses on a particular area (move, explore, create) while still containing a blend of all three elements to keep everyone sitting less and moving more all summer long. Select camps include swimming activities, lessons and field trips.
Save time on registration day and fill out your day camp participant information form ahead of time. Once submitted, your day camp form will save to your account and prepopulate during program registration for one year. Update your form information during each program registration or by contacting Genesis Place Customer Service. Completion of your day camp form only saves the participant information to your account - it does not register your child in day camps.
