School’s Out? Let the Fun Begin!
When school’s out, the Champaign Park District is the place to be! Our awesome, energetic staff are ready to keep your child active, creative, and having a blast with games, sports, arts & crafts, nature activities, and more. Plus, we throw in exciting field trips, all supplies, and equipment – no extra hassle for you! Just remember to pack a morning snack and a sack lunch (peanut/nut-free, please), unless otherwise noted – and we’ll take care of the rest.
Registration for the 2025-2026 school year opens on July 30, 2025, for residents of Champaign-Urbana. Non-residents may begin registering on August 9, 2025.

Scholarships and Resource Services
Because some residents are unable to participate in recreation programs due to economic hardship, the Champaign Park District offers scholarships to reduce certain fees and charges. Scholarship Program applicants are not guaranteed fund availability, program registration or choice of program location. Early applications are given priority. Need is the primary criterion upon which scholarship applicants are considered. Questions: 217-398-2550.
