SUMMER REC REGISTRATION POSTPONED

We have just been advised by the company that processes payments for the Summer Rec program that they are having technical difficulties and are not able to process any payments. They are hoping to clear this problem up ASAP, however at this time no payments can be accepted. As soon as their issue is resolved we will open up registration. We hope to be able to do so on March 21 and will send out an email as soon as they inform us that the issue has been resolved.

If you have any question please email us at [email protected]

Thank you for your patience and understanding

Hello, Wantagh families! At this time, we are planning on running Wantagh Summer Rec. for the 2026 Summer season. We will have a definite answer at the beginning of the year. Keep an eye on this space and our website in January of 2026. At that time, we will have updates about camp and information about how to enroll your camper for the upcoming summer season. Thank you for your patience as we continue to make camp the best it can be for our families and community.

SUMMER REC 2025 UPDATE

Summer Rec is cancelled for this year. We have been informed by the school district that there will be construction this summer in all of the school buildings and we will not have a facility to run the program.

We look forward to running the program again in the future.

SUMMER REC 2025 UPDATE

Registration for the Summer Rec 2025 program is on hold. We have been informed by the school district of possible construction going on in the school buildings this summer, due to the approval of the bond issue. As soon as the district has their timeline for the work, they will let us know if a building will be available. We hope to have this information early next year and as soon as we know if our program can run, we will pass that information on. At this point there is no way to know if we can run our program and would encourage you to make alternate plans.

To the families of Summer Rec. campers-

We at the Wantagh Foundation did a walk through of Wantagh Elementary School this morning along with the Superintendent of schools. He showed us the water damage and according to him, we will be unable to hold camp again on Tuesday, July 23rd. He, along with the rest of us, are frustrated by this sudden damage to the building through a burst pipe over the weekend. He expects that we will be able to hold camp again on Wednesday, July 24th at the normal time. Thank you all for your continued patience as we get things cleaned up to allow for a safe and fun environment for your children.

Additionally, we have had a few questions about make up days for camp. We at the Wantagh Foundation discussed the possibilities, and we are unable to offer make up days for camp, seeing as we do not have the staff availability for any other days except for what has been scheduled. However, we have lots of fun things planned for the last week and a half of Camp- more waterslides, sprinklers, tye-dye, arts and crafts, and a visit from the Kona ice truck, along with class parties. We are eager to get back to camp to allow your children a fun rest of their month of July. As always, if there are any questions or comments, please direct them by email to us. We hope to see you all on Wednesday!

Camp enrollment is now closed, as all of our spots have been filled.

As for kindergarteners, we will be in touch with those of you who have written to us with an issue, because there are kindergarten spots available. We will be in touch in the next day, thank you for your patience as we sift through many emails and Facebook comments.
