WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO THIS SUMMER? THERES SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE!


Summer was designed to give kids a break from school and help them try new experiences and grow mentally, physically and socially. Whether your child wants to refine a sports skill, get creative, be in a play, learn magic, play classic and electronic games or explore the great outdoors, Arlington has something to offer. Classic Camps (page 5) offer a variety of programming options, both structured and unstructured, that include art, sports, trips and more. Overnight Camps (page 6) are a combo of a classic camp, nature/adventure camp and sleepover. Nature, Adventure or History Camps (page 6) are for kids who love the outdoors and want to learn about and enjoy natureand maybe stretch their limits with challenges such as canoeing, caving and more. Community Center Based Camps (page 16) are programs for children ages 5-11, designed to give families lots of flexibility, including an option for students attending summer school! Creative Arts Camps (page 8) come in every shape and size, for those who want to learn to paint a picture, act in a play, throw a pot, sing a song and more! Sports Camps (page 10) are available for the sports enthusiast who enjoys every sport in a sport combo camp, or for the camper who wants to learn or refine skills in a specific sport camp such as basketball or tennis. Camps for Individuals with Disabilities (page 13) are camps specifically designed for individuals with physical, emotional, social or cognitive/mental challenges. Imagination Exploration Camps (page 15) bring kids with special interests in science, magic, history and imagination strategy games together.

QUALIFIED STAFF MAKE IT HAPPEN

Want to have a blast this summer and make money doing it? Arlington County is looking for creative, enthusiastic, committed, sincere people who want to have fun to staff our summer camps. These are part-time to full-time temporary positions at a competitive salary. Great for teachers, college students (must be over 18), and anyone who wants experience working with the best kids in the nation... Arlington kids! You can also support special interest in the arts, nature, sports or working with people with disabilities. Interested? Go to www.arlingtonus/dpr, keyword summer employment. ARLINGTON CAMPS FOR ALL ABILITIES

Camp and playground counselors are special people. Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) staff must love working with young people. They are creative, enthusiastic, committed and sincere...plus super-patient and loads of fun! In fact, many of Arlingtons camp and playground counselors have been campers themselves, often in the programs they now direct. A lot of our committed staff are schoolteachers, college students, and college graduates who hope to find a permanent job working with kids. Theyre a talented and fun bunch, each with loads of experience in his or her specialty area, and all committed to helping your child to be the best he or she can be. To ensure your children have a positive and fun experience, Arlington County invests many hours in staff training and development. In addition to meeting the qualifications for their position, all summer staff attends mandatory trainings that focus on promoting positive participation; creative expression; cooperative and adaptive games; heart-healthy and wellness activities; risk management and safety; child protective services; procedures and policies; planning activities; positive and productive scheduling; and developing welcoming spaces.

As part of our inclusion philosophy, youth with disabilities are welcome to register for programs of interest. We have designated Madison Center and Fairlington Tot camps; and Taylor Elementary Summerfest as sites that receive additional services. These sites have a lower staff to camper ratio; and provide additional training for staff on program modifications, behavior management and inclusion of individuals with disabilities. Also check our Therapeutic Recreation (TR) Camps on pages 13-14. TR staff can help ensure that accommodations are in place for your child to have a successful camp experience. Reasonable accommodations could include: adapted equipment and techniques, specialized staff training, sign language interpreters, accessible facilities, additional staff, or large print and Braille materials. Please request accommodations at least two weeks in advance. It may be necessary to change a campers placement if the support, assistance and accommodation necessary for participation can best be provided at an alternate site. Contact the TR Office at trinfo@arlingtonva.us, 703-228-4740 for more information.

CAMP FACTS 1O1


Everyone can have a great time this summer, but not at anothers expense. All participants must follow directions and be respectful of fellow campers, staff, property, and program boundaries. While each camp has specific policies for each session, there are common policies among all Arlington camps. These policies were developed to be sure all kids are safe and have the best opportunity for an enriching and fun summer. 1. Children must wear appropriate clothing and shoes for the camp and its activities. Sandals are not allowed except on water days. 2. Children must bring their lunch to full day camps. 3. Caregivers should pick up a calendar of activities on the first day of each camp session on site. 4. Excess group insurance that is above and beyond personal medical insurance is available to camp participants to cover medical expenses incurred as a result of injusry at camp. 5. Behavior resulting in extreme disruption or intentional harm to self, others or property can result in removal from the program according to the Code of Conduct Policy at the discretion of program staff. Camp and playground counselors are trained to use supportive strategies and available resources to encourage positive participation as alternatives to removal. 6. Locations are subject to change (this catalog conveys the most correct information available before going to press). For updates, contact the registration office at 703-228-4747 or log on to www.arlingtonva.us, search summer camp. 7. The Arlington County Board approves all Arlington County camp fees. The goal is to provide programs for all County children. You may qualify for reduced fees even in non-DPR camps. Call the Registration Office for more information 703-228-4747. 8. Camps with insufficient enrollment will be canceled. Registration staff will help direct families to comparable open programs. 9. To keep kids safe, summer programs will limit or cancel outdoor activities, or may even cancel programs, on Code Red days. Camper safety is the deciding factor. 10. Field trips are subject to change or cancellation due to inclement weather or if appropriate transportation is unavailable. 11. A indicates an Arlington County C camp. Use the registration form on page 19 and participant information/emergency record form on page 20 to register for these camps only.

It is our goal to provide an environment where campers are able to increase their aerobic capacity, muscular strength, and overall physical fitness through fun and challenging activities. In order to provide safe opportunities for physical activity, it is imperative that your camper wear tennis shoes that fit properly. Laces or Velcro must be tied snuggly on the campers foot.

MARTIAL ARTS OLYMPICS

whereby campers with disabilities are welcome to register for any camp. We offer different levels of support to help meet the needs of each individual. For those needing maximum support, please check out the TR camps on page 14. For those who are in between minimum to moderate support, we have 3 inclusions Designated Sites at Madison and Fairlington Center Tot camps, and Taylor Summerfest. For those who are more independent, there are many other options for inclusion throughout the catalog. Everyone who receives support through the Therapeutic Recreation office (for inclusion or TR camps) will be sent an Accommodation Packet that will help TR plan a successful experience for each camper. Call the TR Office at 703-228-4740 or email TRInfo@ arlingtonva.us if you need recommendations on camps for your child. Note: the TR Office reserves the right to reassign campers if staff determines that he or she would be served more effectively in another program. Individuals with disabilities are welcome to register for any summer camp in the catalog. Some children still need lower ratios and more structure, which is where our Designated Sites come in. The three locations this year are Madison and Fairlington Tot Camp, and Taylor Summerfest for elementary ages. Staff at these sites have a lower ratio, and receive additional training on program modifications and behavior management. Most staff comes with previous experience working with campers with disabilities. The camp focus is on increasing campers awareness and comfort level interacting with peers of all different abilities. Inclusion not only benefits individuals with disabilities but has many positive benefits to all campers!

Los voluntarios asumen un rol de liderazgo con el apoyo del personal capacitado en todas las actividades divertidas y fascinantes de las que disfrutan los campistas, incluso las excursiones, las artes y manualidades, la natacin, el canto, los juegos y mucho ms! Ya sea que ests en busca de una oportunidad de desarrollo profesional o personal o si simplemente tienes deseos de trabajar con gente joven, el voluntariado puede darte grandes satisfacciones.

El Departamento de Parques y Recreacin no puede contratar a todos nuestros voluntarios, pero no contrataremos a nadie en el puesto de asistente estudiante que no haya sido voluntario.

Los voluntarios deben trabajar durante cuatro semanas; los voluntarios nuevos deben trabajar un mnimo de 2 semanas consecutivas en la misma ubicacin. Podra ser posible trabajar dos semanas adicionales.

Los voluntarios deben tener, al menos, 13 aos y, por lo menos, ser dos aos mayores que el campista con ms edad en el programa en el cual son ubicados.

Los voluntarios deben trabajar durante cuatro semanas (no deben ser necesariamente semanas consecutivas, excepto en los campamentos que tienen sesiones de dos semanas o ms). Podra ser posible trabajar dos semanas adicionales.

Los voluntarios no son ubicados donde fueron campistas el verano anterior o donde miembros de su familia se encuentran como campistas.
