Elk Rapids Summer Kids’ Club Program is designed to provide a nurturing and enriching experience for school-age students, entering TK/K (minimum age 5 as of June 21, 2024) through Fifth Grade (maximum age 12). The program is sponsored by the Elk Rapids School District and is licensed by the State of Michigan’s Child Day Care Licensing Agency. All children in Kids’ Club must be registered. 

Our philosophy is to provide a safe, secure and stimulating environment. This program will provide an atmosphere that will be conducive to meeting the physical, social/emotional and cognitive needs of the children it serves. The program will exist in an open, relaxed setting that includes an underlying structure with flexibility in order to meet the individual needs of each child.

Activities

The Summer Kids’ Club Program will be formatted around structured daily activities to include story time, physical fitness and movement, learning and play centers, arts and crafts, lunch, snack, outside time and a required quiet/reading time each day. No child is required to sleep, but each child is asked to rest/read quietly.  

The program will also include participation in the Elk Rapids Library Summer Reading Program, regularly scheduled field trips and a summer’s end celebration. Communication with parents about activities and events and signed permission slip for all field trips will be required. Some field trips do have an additional fee that is not included in the daily tuition rate.

We are going to have lots of fun with your child!!

Fees

Tuition rates can be found under the tuition information tab at the top of the page. Rates for Summer 2024 are subject to change by April 2024.

A non-refundable $50.00 deposit for each child is required with the enrollment form to reserve your spot. (NOTE regarding deposit:  There will no longer be a tuition credit with the registration fee).

​Tuition will be paid in advance weekly. Tuition for the upcoming
​week is due on Friday of the current week. A minimum of two payments are required per month (every other week) to keep your account current.

Lunch

Lunch is the parent’s responsibility and should include a drink. We advise the use of a cold pack such as “Blue Ice” or freeze an extra juice box if items like lunch meat or yogurt are included in your child’s lunch.

Lunches must be labeled daily with child's name and date.

Snack

A nutritious snack and drink (juice or milk) will be provided twice a day.
