β˜€οΈ What an incredible week to kick off summer at Paola Rec! β˜€οΈ

This week, we welcomed participants to Session 1 of Archery, Session 1 of Youth Tennis, the PHS Soccer Camp, Session 1 of Musical Theatre Camp, and the Royals Amateur Development Youth Baseball/Softball Camp. From learning new skills to making new friends, our kids packed a lot of fun into one week!

We also saw plenty of great action on the fields with youth baseball and softball games taking place throughout the week at Wallace Park and the USD 368 District Ballfields.

A huge thank you to our participants, coaches, instructors, volunteers, and families for helping make it such a fantastic start to the summer season. We can't wait to see what the rest of the summer has in store!
