Summer Camp

South Seas House Recreation Center · $50/week

This is a municipal day camp offered by the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks at the South Seas House Recreation Center.

▌ Editor's read The provided URL leads to a PDF flyer for a 'Summer Camp 2026' at the South Seas House Recreation Center, operated by the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks. This indicates a municipal-parks owner type and a day camp program. The flyer states the camp is for ages 6-12 and runs Monday-Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with a weekly fee of $50. Activities listed include arts & crafts, sports, games, and special events. There is no mention of ACA accreditation, state licensing, staff-to-camper ratios, or background check policies on the flyer. Google reviews for the South Seas House Recreation Center are limited, with a 3.8-star rating from 4 reviews, but these are for the facility generally, not specifically the summer camp. The flyer serves as a basic announcement rather than a comprehensive camp website, lacking details on staff, safety, or specific program curriculum.

Who thrives here Ages 5–12

Summer Camp fits middle-elementary campers — old enough for skill-building to land, young enough that friend-group dynamics and counselor warmth still matter more than program rigor. Parents at this age band tend to prioritize a balanced rhythm of structured activity and unstructured play, which is the actual differentiator inside any given traditional day camp program.

Frequently asked about Summer Camp

What ages does Summer Camp accept?
Summer Camp is open to children ages 5–12. Camps publish their own age cutoffs, and some run mixed-age groups internally; check the registration page for that summer's grouping if your child sits at a boundary.
How much does Summer Camp cost?
Summer Camp publishes $50/week for the standard session. Final cost depends on session length, sibling discounts, and whether extended care is added on.
What are Summer Camp's hours?
Summer Camp runs 9:00am-5:00pm. If those hours don't quite cover your work day, check whether extended care or early drop-off is offered separately.
Who runs Summer Camp?
Summer Camp is operated by the local parks department. The operator type matters for tuition policy (refunds, financial aid eligibility) and for what kind of staff training pipeline the camp uses.
Does Summer Camp provide lunch?
Summer Camp does not include lunch — campers bring their own. Most day camps without provided lunch are nut-free or nut-aware, so check the allergy policy before packing. Frozen water bottles double as ice packs and drinks; insulated lunch boxes hold below 40°F for about four hours.
