You still have time to make a splash this summer! Water aerobics takes place at 9 a.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays (evening sessions are Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:30 p.m.), and Aqua Zumba is Wednesdays at 9 a.m. and Fridays at 5 p.m. Cameron Park Lake is open for swimming (until August 9), exercise, picnics, boat rentals, pickleball and tennis.  

 Kidz Camp (ages 6-12) has one session left—Making Waves—from August 3-7, featuring a field trip to the Sacramento State Aquatic Center. Other activities include gymnastics, swimming, arts and crafts and more. Golf lessons are still being offered (ages 6 to adults) at Bass Lake Golf Course, and tennis lessons take place at Cameron Park Lake.   

Adults—don’t feel left out! Join in on the action with an adult basketball league, drop-in sports at the gym, tai chi, ballroom dance, classical guitar, CPR, hunter safety, Zumba, hula dance or yoga classes. 

 On August 11, bingo games take place from 1-3 p.m. at the Cameron Park CSD ($3 for two cards, and $1 for each additional card; no more than four cards total) and from 3-5 p.m., don’t miss “Nutrition Essentials.” On August 25, from 10 a.m. to noon, the Cameron Park Newcomers will host a game day, with—you guessed it—lots of games!  

EDDOG will host its annual Pooch Plunge at Cameron Park Lake on August 15, featuring a walk with your furry friend at 9:30 a.m., followed by the plunge at 10 a.m. 

On August 15 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., don’t miss the Cameron Park Country Fest at Christa McAuliffe Park. This new, free event, sponsored by the Cameron Park Community Foundation, will be a down-home, family-friendly festival. Enjoy live music, show off your grilling skills in a backyard barbecue competition (or sample the results and be the judge), take part in old-fashioned games or one of the “just for fun” pageants, and send the little ones to the kids’ zone while you shop for arts, crafts and treasures at the Market Vendors. Tasty treats from a variety of food vendors will also be available. For more info, visit cpcountryfest.wordpress.com.

Save the date for the Renaissance Tudor Fayre at Cameron Park Lake, September 12-13.
