Applications available for Raleigh summer camp scholarships

The City of Oaks Foundation is working with the City of Raleigh Parks Recreation and Cultural Resources Department to give kids, who might not otherwise have the opportunity, a chance to go to camp this summer.

The Give Play Initiative aims to remove the cost barrier for kids ages 7 to 16 so they can be involved in park programs. The foundation, a nonprofit conservation organization that works closely with the city's parks department, is providing scholarships for multiple city nature and outdoor-themed camps this summer.
