Summer programs, the pools opening a mystery trip for seniors with Kat Craugh, La Crosse’s recreation and community enrichment manager.

Kraugh stopped in the WIZM studio for La Crosse Talk to break down some of the things the Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department is doing this summer, which included a lot of activities for children.

Parks and Rec summer programs

That included summer day camps — like Tiny Tots and Adventure Camp — plus that all three pools will be open, beginning June 7.

The Pettibone Beach rentals will also be opening after Memorial Day, where kayaks, paddleboards and canoes can be checked out.

She also talked about some of the Senior Excursions that are happening — though some are already sold out, including a mystery trip that she wouldn’t give a single hint about.

Some changes for the season include part of Cameron Park being a dog park, while the La Crosse Farmers Market has moved to Burns Park — across from the Main Street Library.
