Bradley Fieldhouse is so excited to announce the dates for the 2022 Bradley Kids Summer Camp!

Bradley Kids Summer Camp is for boys and girls ages 5-13. Campers will be grouped into pods based off the guidelines from the CDC & the state government. Pods will be divided up by ages each week to ensure each camper has the best experience possible! Bradley Kids Camp includes all activities such as sports, crafts, learning activities, and more! We believe camp can be an option that's affordable for everyone!

Chicago Public Schools’ Office of Early Childhood Education invites parents, guardians, and caregivers to learn about CPS’ commitment to Universal Pre-K: free, full-day, high-quality Pre-K for every four year old in every community. The session will also cover preschool student eligibility, school-based program availability, and how to complete the application process for school year 22-23 that will launch on April 19, 2022. This will be a Bilingual workshop.
