While winter will most likely stick around for the next several weeks, the city of Alpharetta is encouraging residents to start planning for their spring and summer recreation adventures.

Residents can choose from a multitude of program opportunities for the whole family, offered by the Alpharetta Recreation and Parks Department.

Learn a new skill, create a work of art, exert some energy, or simply join your friends in exploration of fun.

Jump online to browse a complete list of programs available in our Spring/Summer Leisure Guide (March-August 2015) on the city department’s website.

Some of the highlights include:

• Youth activities include varied spring/summer/specialty camps, art enrichment and camera fun, sportykes and instructional sports, gymnastics, dance, Lil’ Vibe fun fitness, tennis, karate, swim team and swim lessons.
• Teens can attend boot camp for babysittters, explore publishing in the digital age, develop an artwork portfolio, participate in sports programs, or develop leadership skills as a summer camp Counselor in Training (CIT).
• For adults of all ages, Alpharetta Recreation and Parks offers opportunities to learn a new language, express creativity through photography or art enrichment, play ball or learn to play tennis, tone the body through karate, dance or fun fitness classes, engage in the latest craze of pickleball, or even climb a tree! Check out our line-up of special events all season, and be sure to get your summer pool passes/splashcards.

Here’s how residents can register for these activities:

During priority registration, city of Alpharetta residents may register online, in person, by fax, or by emailing a completed Activity Registration Form to recreation@alpharetta.ga.us.
