East Bay Regional Park summer camps
Could anyone share their experience with the "Park'n It Day" summer camp run by East Bay regional Parks, particularly for younger participants? I can't seem to find any reviews anywhere...

Sure. My (then) 7 & 5 year olds did it at Miller/Knox in 2016. Here are my notes:
Very affordable for 9a-4p coverage ($200 for first child, $180 for second). Both kids (ages 5 & 7) did it for EBRPD’s first year at Miller/Knox in Richmond; the same staff roves other parks throughout the East Bay, doing weekly sessions at each one throughout the summer. All outdoors. Field games, hiking, playing in the water at Keller Beach, etc. The kids lug their backpacks all over the place. Can be both hot and cold (in the same day!) at this location; wear layers which then will be lost in various locations throughout the park. Staff not the warmest, bathrooms not the cleanest. OK for active kids. Not sure we will repeat.
