Summer Camp Mania is bringing entertainment to campers this summer with plenty of fun surprises for the kiddos! Instead of field trips, guest artists and contractors will visit the camp to guarantee exciting and educational experiences every day. Learn about becoming a DJ, jump up and down in a wild bounce house, and express your personality with an airbrush tattoo from a guest artist. Camp favorite activities such as visiting Bicentennial Park, swimming in the Aquatics Center, and playing games with counselors will be back as well!
Cross Timbers Nature Camp
Cross Timbers Nature Camp will also open for registration for all nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts! Campers will have the opportunity to explore the trails, learn about the species that inhabit them, and become good stewards of our Cross Timbers Ecosystem.
Summer Camp Mania and Cross Timbers Nature Camp are each offered for nine weeks during the summer. Campers can register for one week or all nine; however, they must enroll and pay for each week they want to attend. Specialty camps will also be offered this summer for those interested in athletics, science, or STEAM. Learn all about our various camp offerings on our website.
If you know you want to register for camp, but aren’t sure which one is right for you, then make sure to attend our Camp Fair at Champions Club on April 17! Explore each summer camp’s booth where you can learn more about the activities planned for each one.

Although it’s still awhile away, Southlake Parks and Recreation has already started to prepare to move into The Marq Southlake Champions Club with a switch in registration software to CSI. The new software will replace the current registration software, Active Network, and is expected to go live in a few months.
When participants go to register for programs they will notice the website looks a little different. Now, instead of having to search for an activity, you will be able to select a category to begin the search process.
One important transition note to keep in mind: All users will have to create a new account. Account information will NOT carry over from Active Network.
What does this mean for me?
Before actually registering for a program, you will be prompted to create a new account. Because CSI will also be used once Champions Club is fully operational, it will look like you are registering for a membership. Don’t worry, when you are asked to select your membership type, simply select the “Patron” membership and Parks and Recreation as the site. This will allow you to register as you normally would.
For more information about CSI and step-by-step instructions to help you navigate CSI visit www.SouthlakeParksandRec.com or call us at (817) 748-8019.
Carroll ISD kindergarten registration for the 2016-2017 school year begins Wednesday, March 30. Kindergarten enrollment packets are currently available by clicking here – choose 2016-2017 enrollment forms.
