Free Summer Activities for Youth at South Park Community Center

Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) is offering a variety of free drop-in activities for youth ages 11-14 at the South Park Community Center this summer through SPR’s Summer of Safety program. Regular SOS activities will include field trips, arts and craft, as well as sports and athletics. Click here to see a calendar of activities or see the schedule below.  

Summer of Safety activities at South Park Community Center will run from July 5 through August 22, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Mondays through Thursdays. Free lunch provided by the City’s Summer Food Service Program will be served daily at noon to all participants.

While the community center building is closed for the South Park Community Center Sitewide Renovation, most activities will take place outside in the field area, or to the side of the facility where the wading pool is (once you arrive at the center, staff at the front of the building can help direct you). Please provide your child with sunscreen.

The program will operate rain or shine and no sign up is required; youth can drop in on any day and at any time during the program’s regular hours. E-13/concussion forms are required for all programs. You can pick up forms at any SPR community center (South Park staff are available the week before SOS programming starts from noon to 1pm, and during regular SOS hours once the program starts on July 5). You can also download the form here.

Soccer Camps will be held at Highland Park Field. Transportation to and from South Park will be provided. Participants will depart South Park at 8:45 a.m. and return to South Park at 2:15 p.m.
