The Parks and Recreation Department will be hosting "School's Out, Camp's In" for children at 20 recreation centers on Tuesday, October 15 from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

The day camp will be free. All children will be supervised, entertained and fed.

"Many Tampa parents are returning to work, but schools are not yet ready to reopen," Parks and Recreation Director Tony Mulkey said. "It's a challenge, and we hope that providing this 'School's Out, Camp's In' session will help support families."
