Welcome to your BEST summer ever!

The Oak Lawn Park District summer day camp is full of action! Campers will enjoy a full day of excitement as we play games, sports, do arts and crafts, and partake in special events! We have multiple locations, each that offer a different experience to fit your campers needs. You can sign up for four weeks or eight weeks of camp. Campers will swim at least once a week and go on two fun field trips per session (depending on which camp you sign up for). Sign up early, as space is limited!
