Kennesaw Parks & Rec is hosting a Bird and Butterfly house workshop for the April Art in the Park at the General Pavilion at Swift Cantrell Park. Participants will have the option to choose a bird or butterfly house that will make a wonderful addition to any garden. The class will be led by Kennesaw Parks & Rec Director Steve Roberts and Assistant Director Bill McNair. This event is suitable for all ages. All materials will be supplied, and no artistic experience or talent is necessary. Light snacks and drinks will be available onsite or participants can bring their own food. Please remember that glass is not permitted in the park.

In case of rain, we will move the event to the Ben Robertson Community Center (2753 Watts Drive, Kennesaw, GA 30144).
Summer Camp Expo is an open-house style free event for the community to learn about the summer camps available through Kennesaw Parks & Rec. The camp instructors will be on-site so attendees can meet them and learn more about the different camps available to the community such as, sports, art, and science camps, as well as the All-Star Camp. This year, the Summer Camp Expo will be held outside in front of the community center to allow for proper social distancing. There will be information posted on social media for those who do not wish to attend in person. A coupon code for online registration will also be given out at the event and on social media that will be good for 24 hours. The Ben Robertson Community Center will be open for restrooms and for community members to tour the building if desired. Masks will be required to enter the building.
