Sheila Jennings Recreation Center Offers Summer Camp For Kids

  • Tuesday, May 6, 2008

The Sheila Jennings Recreation Center serves families who live on the Westside. It is named after long-time community advocate Sheila Jennings, who is a former resident of College Hill Courts.

Facility Manager Fred Payne said some 35 youngsters ages five to 12 attend the center's after-school program where they do homework assignments and enjoy an array of recreational activities. The children are supervised and are served a snack as part of the program.

Mr. Payne added that the center will offer a summer camp for 60 children on the Westside that starts June 2.

Parents may register their children for the summer camp through the end of this month.

Call 756-3541 for more information.

Partners for the Sheila Jennings center include Chattanooga's Parks and Recreation Department, the James A. Henry YMCA and the Chattanooga Housing Authority.
