Summer Camps

Registration morning, minus the meltdown

From city day camps to private and specialty camps, Rec makes signing up effortless for parents and running programs easy for you. Built to handle the registration rush without breaking a sweat.

Built for the rush

Rec holds up when thousands of parents simultaneously hit register. One city sold out every camp in under two minutes with zero downtime.

Effortless for parents

Parents can browse, register, and pay in minutes from their phone without downloading anything.

Lighter load for staff

Forms on file, phone-based check-in, and waitlists that manage themselves mean less paperwork and fewer phone calls for staff.

Fair and flexible

Register day-by-day or for the full summer, apply sibling discounts and scholarships, and run a fair lottery when demand runs hot.

For parents

Signups they'll finish in the carpool line

Rec is fast and familiar so parents can complete registration without calling the front desk.

All your kids, one checkout

Register every child for every week in a single cart with sibling discounts applied automatically. No second account or repeat typing required.

FastTrack the morning

Rec lets parents fill out forms and camper details ahead of time, so they can complete registration the moment it opens.

Pay the modern way

Apple Pay, saved cards, and payment plans that spread the cost across the summer. Scholarships and promo codes apply by rule.

For your team

Run the whole summer from one place

From the first sign-up to the last pickup, the busywork takes care of itself.

Check in and out from a phone

Counselors and volunteers check campers in and out from their own phones with a limited view that never exposes your full system.

Every form, on file

Health info, emergency contacts, and authorized pickups live on each family's profile: entered once, attached to every session, ready at the gate.

Waitlists that work themselves

When a spot opens, the next family is invited automatically with a window to claim it. Spots stop leaking and the phone stops ringing.

Built for the way camps actually work

Whatever your camp throws at a summer, Rec is ready for it.
