WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO THIS SUMMER? THERE’S 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 nature…and 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.

PERFORMING ARTS, SPORTS, ARTS AND CRAFTS, SCIENCE, NATURE, GAMING AND TECHNOLOGY, AND MUCH MORE!

QUALIFIED STAFF MAKE IT HAPPEN 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 Arlington’s 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. They’re 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.

ARLINGTON CAMPS FOR ALL ABILITIES 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 camper’s placement if the support, assistance and accommodation necessary for participation can best be provided at an alternate site. Contact the TR Office at [email protected], 703-228-4740 for more information.

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.”

Did you know that first day of camp registration is the busiest day for online registrations?

Make sure you get into the camps you want by preparing before the registration period begins. See page 18 for great registration tips!

Check out the Arlington County Summer Camp Catalog for camps and programs that keep kids engaged, active and focused on expanding their horizons! Arlington County programs offer lots of choices, safe and inviting environments, and the chance for children to develop strong bonds with their community. Kids get their fill of thrills through sports; showcase their talents through the arts; reap the rewards of volunteerism; invigorate their imaginations through creative play; explore the outdoors through nature programs; and have adventures galore. All while making friends and lifelong memories. Summer is the perfect time to bring people together by nurturing a healthy development that helps young people grow up confident, caring and responsible.

SEND A KID TO CAMP…PLEASE!DPR established the Summer FUNd in 2004 to cover registration and field trip fees for children who could otherwise not participate due to financial hardship. Please help us ensure that all children in Arlington have a fun, engaging and asset-building summer. Contribute to a child’s summer adventures by donating during the registration process or on the Arlington County Camp Registration Form.

CAMP FACTS 1O1

Everyone can have a great time this summer, but not at another’s 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 calen-dar 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 pro-gram according to the Code of Conduct Policy at the discretion of program staff. Camp and play-ground counselors are trained to use supportive strategies and available resources to encourage positive participation as alterna-tives 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 infor-mation 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 pro-grams 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 trans-portation is unavailable.

11. indicates an Arlington County camp. Use the registration form on page 19 and participant information/emergency record form on page 20 to register for these camps only.

DESIGNATED INCLUSION SITES Individuals with disabilities are welcome to register for any summer camp in the catalog.

Staff at these sites have a lower ratio, and receive additional training on program modifica-tions and behavior management. Most staff comes with previous experience working with campers with disabilities. The camp focus is on increasing camper’s 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!

Every camper in DPR summer camps benefit from a healthy and active lifestyle. Regular physical activity controls weight, combats chronic health conditions and diseases, improves mood, boosts energy, and promotes better sleep. Our recreation programs strive to provide an opportunity for each camper to get the exercise they need to sustain a healthy life. We integrate at least 45 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise into DPR summer camps through interactive sports and games run by our staff.

It is our goal to provide an environment where campers are able to increase their aerobic capacity, muscular strength, and overall physi-cal 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 camper’s foot. Loose shoes or Heely’s are not ideal for physical activities. Socks should also be worn. Campers wearing inappropriate footwear will be unable to fully participate for their own safety. DPR Staff will consult with a parent when improper footwear is worn.FIT

~ CAMPS FOR PEOPLE ~ WITH DISABILITIESArlington County maintains a philosophy of inclusion 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 [email protected] 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.

DESIGNATED INCLUSION SITES 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 pre-vious experience working with campers with dis-abilities. The camp focus is on increasing camper’s 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!

WAITLISTS A C

Arlington County camps are very popular. The sooner you register the more likely you will get the spot you want.

Registrations will be processed to accommodate first and second choices. If an opening is not available, you can be placed on the wait list. Arlington County class coordinators use waitlists to make deci-sions, and the County process many cancellations throughout the summer; therefore, there is a good chance that you obtain a spot if you are placed on a waitlist early. Please do not call registration to ask the likelihood to obtain a spot; waitlist enrollments depend on the number of enrollees that cancel their spot. You can check your place in the waitlist by login in to your account online (registration.arlingtonva.us) and selecting “My Account,” “Print Household Roster,” and Submit. Online registration confirmations can be printed using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 or higher, but enrollment is not confirmed until all paperwork is received.

LATE REGISTRATIONS AND FORMSAll required paperwork must be received no later than 5pm the Monday prior to the camp week or campers may not be allowed to participate and no refunds will be processed. Registrations will be

For late registrations, all documents must be delivered to the Registration Office, and a Summer Camp Ticket will be provided to the parent. It is the parents responsibility to take this Camp Ticket to the first day of camp and give it to camp staff to be admitted to camp.

CAMPERS WITH DISABILITIES Parents and guardians must request accommodations to the Therapeutic Recreation Office (703-228-4740) [email protected] at least two weeks in advance of the program session if a child requires frequent reminders to participate, follow directions or stay with the group; requires assistance with dressing, feeding or toileting; or has difficulty managing anger. Please note this on the Camp Participant Information/ Emergency Record form. This addi-tional information is required in order to provide accommodations so that every participant will be successful in the chosen program. There is no additional fee for this service.

NON COUNTY RESIDENTS Non-resident registration for Arlington County camps begins March 5, 2014. Non-residents pay 50% more than the fees listed in the catalog, including Arlington Public School employees. Residents should register early to ensure spots.

FEE REDUCTIONS:Don’t let fees be a barrier. Arlington County residents may request a fee reduction! All participants must submit fee reduction applica-tions PRIOR to registration, since discounts are NOT RETROACTIVE. Fee reductions are available on a sliding scale based on household income and size. Anyone who is an active financial assistance client of Arlington County’s Department of Human Services or APS free/reduced lunch program, as well as others who are below the threshold of the currently published HUD’s Section 8 income limits, can apply for a reduced fee. To apply, bring proof of identity, proof of Arlington residency and proof of income (such as original free/ reduced lunch letter from APS, WIC, SSI, SSDI, Section 8 Housing, or current tax forms) to receive 25%, 50% or 75% off. For more information on where and when to process fee reductions, please see page 3.

REGISTRATION CANCELLATIONS, TRANSFERS AND REFUNDSAll refunds are subject to a $20 administrative charge per participant per camp session. Payment is not based on attendance, it is respon-sibility of the guardian to cancel if the camper won’t attend. All registration changes (transfers/cancellations/refunds) are processed by the Registration Office ONLY and not the camp or community center staff. Deadline to make any changes to camp registrations is 5pm the Monday prior to the camp start. No refunds will be issued for cancellations requested after that deadline. All changes are final-ized only when a receipt is generated by our system. Once a change is made, please read and note your receipt number, since registrants will be held responsible for payment.

PROGRAMS IN THE PARKS Our staff facilitates fun recreational activities for the whole family, including arts & crafts, sports, group games, and special events. These drop- in programs are weekdays, from June 23-August 15. We are on site at High View Park Program every night, and Monday-Thursday our Mobil Recreation Staff travels to different parks, into neighborhoods across the county, bringing recreational fun closer to you!Highview Park Evening Program Highview Park, 1945 N. Dinwiddie Street Monday-Friday 6-9pmMobile Van in the Parks Tyrol Hill Park, 5101 7th Road S. (Mondays) 5:30-8:30pmFort Barnard Park, 2101 S. Pollard Street (Tuesdays) 5:30-8:30pmDoctors Run Park, 1301 S. George Mason Drive (Wednesdays) 5:30-8:30pmPenrose Park, 2200 6th Street (Thursdays) 5:30-8:30 pm

If you are 13 or older, please join hundreds of other energetic and committed Arlingtonians and have fun while contributing your talents to the community. We need your support to assist staff with general interest, special interest and Therapeutic Recreation camps (volunteers are placed only at camps operated by the Department of Parks and Recreation,

not in contracted camps). Volunteers take a leadership role with the support of trained staff in all the fun and exciting activities campers enjoy, including field trips, arts and crafts, swimming, singalongs, games and much more! Whether you are seeking a personal or professional development opportunity or simply have a desire to work with young people, volunteering can be extremely rewarding. It is an opportunity to make friends, work with children in a supervised recreational setting and gain valuable experience in a leadership role. In order to be eligible for a paid Student Assistant position in Arlington County camps in the future, you must have been a volunteer for at least one summer. The number of Student Assistant positions is limited, but DPR will not hire anyone who has not been a summer camp volunteer.

GUIDELINES FOR GREAT VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES: ☛ Volunteers must be at least 13 and at least two years older than the oldest camper in the program at which they are placed.

☛ Volunteers are not placed where they were campers the previous summer or where their family members are current campers.

☛ Volunteers must work for four weeks. New volunteers must work a minimum of two consecutive weeks at the same location. It may be possible to work additional weeks.

☛ Volunteers must work core program hours. Working more than the core hours is determined by the needs of the site. No one may volunteer more than eight hours a day.

☛ Our goal is to place volunteers near their home and in the programs of their choice. However, we can’t guarantee placements.

DATOS BÁSICOS DEL CAMPAMENTO Todo el mundo puede pasarla grandioso este verano, pero no a expensas del prójimo. Todos los participantes deben seguir las indicaciones y ser respetuosos de los compañeros de campamento, el personal, la propiedad y los límites del programa. Mientras que cada campamento cuenta con políticas específicas para cada sesión, existen políticas comunes entre todos los campamentos de Arlington. Estas políticas fueron creadas para garantizar que todos los chicos estén seguros y tengan la mejor oportunidad de pasar un verano divertido y enriquecedor.

1. Los niños deben utilizar vestimenta y calzado adecuados para el campamento y sus actividades. No se permite usar sandalias, excepto en los días de actividades en el agua.

2. Los niños deben traer su almuerzo para los campamentos que son de día completo.

3. Los padres/cuidadores deben recoger un cronograma de actividades el primer día de cada sesión de campamento.

4. Todo aquel que esté inscrito en los campamentos del Departamento de Parques y Recreación está cubierto automáticamente bajo una póliza de grupo contra accidentes.

5. El comportamiento que resulte en un trastorno extremo o daño intencional para sí mismo, los demás o la propiedad podrá tener como consecuencia el retiro del programa según el criterio del personal del programa. Los consejeros del campamento están capacitados para utilizar las estrategias de apoyo y los recursos disponibles para alentar la participación positiva como alternativas al retiro.

6. Los lugares están sujetos a cambio (este catálogo proporciona la información disponible más correcta previo a imprimirse). Para obtener información actualizada, comuníquese con la oficina de inscripciones al 703-228-4747 o visite www.arlingtonva.us y busque “campamento”.

7. La Junta del Condado de Arlington aprueba las tarifas de todos los campamentos. El objetivo es ofrecer programas a todos los niños del

Condado. Usted podría calificar para obtener asistencia financiera. Llame a la Oficina de Inscripciones para más información al 703-228-4747 o ingrese a la página web www.arlington.us y busque “asistencia financiera.”

8. Los campamentos con matrícula de inscripción insuficiente serán cancelados. El personal de inscripciones le asistirá a buscar programas abiertos similares.

9. Con la seguridad de los chicos como meta, los programas de verano limitarán o cancelarán las actividades al aire libre o, incluso, podrán cancelar los programas en días de “Código Rojo”. La seguridad del campista es el factor decisivo.

10. Las excursiones están sujetas a cambio o cancelación debido a inclemencias climáticas o si no estuviera disponible el transporte adecuado.

11. A C

indica un campamento del Condado de Arlington. Use el formulario de inscripción de la página 25 para registrarse sólo

para estos campamentos.

~ ALGO PARA TODOS LOS GUSTOS ~ El periodo de verano ha sido diseñado para darles a los niños un descanso de la escuela y para ayudarlos a experimentar cosas nuevas y a crecer mental, física y socialmente. Ya sea que su hijo desee refinar sus habilidades en algún deporte, hacer rafting, actuar en una obra, realizar juegos de destreza mental, aprender magia…o simplemente pasar el tiempo, Arlington tiene algo para ofrecerle.

Campamentos Pre-escolares y Clasicos (página 5) Ofrezca una variedad de opciones de programación, tanto estructurados como no estructurados, que incluyen arte, viajes de deportes y mucho más.

Campamentos nocturnos (página 6) son un combo entre un campamento clásico, un campamento de naturaleza y aventura y además se pasa la noche fuera de la casa.

Campamentos de naturaleza, historia y aventura (página 6) son para los niños que aman el aire libre y desean aprender sobre la naturaleza y disfrutarla...y quizás ampliar sus límites y desafíos, tales como piragüismo, espeleología y más.

Campamentos de Artes Creativas (página 8) vienen en todas las formas y tamaños; para los que quieren aprender a pintar un cuadro, actuar en una obra, crear una vasija, cantar una canción y ¡mucho más!

Campamentos deportivos (página 10) están disponibles para los entusiastas de los deportes a quienes les gustan todos los deportes de los campamentos con combo deportivo o para los campistas que quieren aprender habilidades o refinar las suyas en un deporte específico, tal como el básquetbol o el tenis.

Campamentos de imaginación y exploración (página 15) son una nueva clase de campamentos que generan intereses especiales en los niños en relación con la ciencia, la magia, la historia y los juegos de estrategia imaginativa en conjunto.

Campamentos en centros comunitarios (página 23) Los centros de puertas abiertas son programas para adolescentes que buscan programas flexibles de medio día que mantengan ocupados a los jóvenes.

ASISTENCIA FINANCIERANo deje que la tarifa sea un impedimento. ¡Los residentes del Condado de Arlington pueden solicitar asistencia financiera! La solicitud de asistencia financiera se debe procesar ANTES de la inscripción porque los descuentos NO SON RETROACTIVOS. Las reducciones en las tarifas están disponibles en una escala móvil basada en el ingreso y la cantidad de integrantes del grupo familiar. Toda persona que sea un cliente activo de ayuda financiera del Departamento de Servicios Humanos del Condado de Arlington o programa de almuerzos gratuitos o a precio reducido de APS, así como también aquellas personas que estén por debajo del umbral de límites de ingreso del recientemente publicado artículo 8 de la Ley de Viviendas de HUD, pueden solicitar para recibir asistencia financiera. Para calificar a fin de recibir un descuento del 25%, 50% ó 75% en las tarifas, deberá presentar su documento de identidad y comprobantes de residencia en Arlington así como ingreso familiar (por ejemplo, la carta original de los almuerzos gratuitos o a precio reducido de APS, WIC, SSI, SSDI, del artículo 8 de la Ley de Viviendas o la declaración de impuestos actual). También existen planes de pago. Para más informacíon llame al 703-228-4747.

MANDE A UN NIÑO A UN

CAMPAMENTO…¡POR FAVOR!En 2004, DPR creó el Fondo de Verano para la Diversión para cubrir el costo de inscripción y las excursiones para los niños que de otra forma no podrían participar debido a las dificultades económicas. Por favor, ayúdenos a garantizar que todos los niños de Arlington pasen un verano divertido y entretenido y que a la vez desarrollen valores. Contribuya con las aventuras de verano de un niño mediante una donación durante el proceso de inscripción o en el Formulario de Inscripción a Campamentos de Verano del Condado de Arlington. (página 25)

CAMPAMENTOS PARA TODAS LAS EDADES En esta Guía de Campamentos de Verano, usted encontrará actividades para los niños de todas las edades y habilidades. Para garantizar la diversión, asegúrese de escoger un campamento que no sólo satisfaga los intereses de su hijo, sino que también sea adecuado para la edad/habilidad. Observe el cuadro de la página 27 para conocer los campamentos adecuados según la edad. Los campamentos para niños de edad preescolar son campamentos exclusivos para que los niños pequeños abran sus alas y crezcan. Los niños de edad elemental encontrarán campamentos en todas las categorías de campamentos…consulte las opciones. Algunos campamentos ofrecen buenas opciones de cuidado diurno mientras que otros son breves, encantadores y ¡realmente valen la pena!

OPORTUNIDADES DE CAMPAMENTO PARA PERSONAS CON NECESIDADES ESPICALESEl Condado de Arlington sostiene una filosofía de inclusión por la cual las personas con ol son bienvenidas para inscribirse en cualquier programa o campamento. A fin de garantizar que los participantes tengan una experiencia positiva, ofrecemos campamentos en Centros de Inclusión designados. Los campamentos “Tot” para pequeños en Madison y Fairlington y “Summerfest” (Festival de verano) en la escuela primaria McKinley son centros que reciben servicios adicionales, incluso una menor capacidad máxima en los campamentos, más personal en proporción a los campistas y capacitación adicional para el personal sobre modificaciones de los programas y manejo del comportamiento.Todas las personas que reciben apoyo a través de la Oficina de Recreación Terapéutica (Campamentos de inclusión o TR) deben completar un Paquete de Alojamiento, además de los formularios de inscripción en la página 25. La Oficina de Recreación Terapéutica enviará el Paquete de Alojamiento una vez que el niño esté inscrito. La información proporcionada en el Paquete de Alojamiento le permite a TR planificar una experiencia exitosa para cada campista, independientemente de sus

capacidades. Se realizan todos los esfuerzos por incluir a los campistas en los programas de recreación que más se adapten a sus intereses y capacidades. Llame a la Oficina de TR al 703-228-4740 si necesita recomendaciones sobre campamentos para su hijo. Nota: la oficina de TR se reserva el derecho de reasignar a los campistas si el personal determina que recibirán una atención más eficaz en otro programa.

UN PERSONAL CALIFICADO HACE QUE LAS COSAS FUNCIONENLos asesores del campamento y el campo de juegos son gente especial. El personal de el Departmento de Parques y Recreación tiene que adorar el trabajo con jóvenes (de lo contrario no los contrataríamos). Ellos son creativos, entusiastas, comprometidos y sinceros… ¡Y súper pacientes y muy divertidos! De hecho, muchos de los consejeros de los campamentos y campos de juego de Arlington han sido campistas, frecuentemente en programas que ahora dirigen. Mucho de nuestro personal comprometido son maestros de escuela, graduados de universidad que esperan hallar un trabajo permanente con jóvenes. Son un grupo talentoso y divertido, todos con cantidad de experiencia en su especialidad, y todos están comprometidos a ayudar a sus hijos a que sean lo mejor que puedan ser. Para asegurar que sus hijos tengan una experiencia positiva y divertida, el Condado de Arlington invierte en capacitación y desarrollo de su personal. Además de cumplir con las calificaciones para su cargo, todo el personal de verano asiste a 38 horas de capacitación obligatoria que se centra en la promoción de la participación positiva, expresión creativa y juegos de adaptación, actividades saludables y de bienestar, manejo de riesgos y seguridad, servicios de protección de la infancia, procedimientos y políticas, programación positiva y productiva y desarrollo de apertura a nuevos espacios.

OPORTUNIDAD DE EMPLEO¿Desea divertirse este verano y ganar dinero por ello? El Condado de Arlington está buscando personas creativas, entusiastas, comprometidas y sinceras que deseen divertirse y que quieran ser parte de nuestro personal en los campamentos de verano. Estos son puestos de medio tiempo y tiempo completo y gozan de un salario competitivo. Esta es una excelente oportunidad para estudiantes universitarios (deben ser mayores de 18 años), y para cualquiera que desee adquirir experiencia trabajando con los mejores niños de la nación…¡Los niños de Arlington! También puede apoyar algún interés especial en artes, naturaleza, deportes o trabajando con las personas con necesidades espicales. ¿Interesado? Llame al 703-228-3327.

Este verano, los participantes van a disfrutar de viajes más largos cada jueves 1-7pm. Por favor tenga en cuenta que aunque sugerimos que el participante se quede en el centro durante todo el programa, esto no es un requisito y los participantes tienen permiso de entrar y salir a cualquier hora.

Si tienes 13 años o más, únete a los cientos de Arlingtonianos llenos de energía y compromiso, y diviértete mientras contribuyes con tus talentos para la comunidad. Necesitamos tu apoyo para asistir al personal con intereses generales, especiales y campamentos de recreación terapéutica (los voluntarios son ubicados sólo en los campamentos operados por el Departamento de Parques y Recreación, no en los campamentos por

contrato). 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 natación, el canto, los juegos y ¡mucho más! Ya sea que estés 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. Es una oportunidad para hacer amigos, trabajar con niños en un ambiente recreativo supervisado y obtener experiencia invalorable en un rol de liderazgo. Recuerda que para poder ser seleccionado como Asistente Estudiante para los campamentos del Condado de Arlington, debes haber sido voluntario con nosotros durante al menos un verano. El Departamento de Parques y Recreación no puede contratar a todos nuestros voluntarios, pero no contrataremos a nadie en el puesto de asistente estudiante que no haya sido voluntario.

GUÍA PARA OPORTUNIDADES DE VOLUNTARIADO: ☛ Los voluntarios deben tener, al menos, 13 años y, por lo menos, ser dos años mayores que el campista con más edad en el programa en el cual son ubicados.

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

☛ Los voluntarios deben trabajar durante cuatro semanas; los voluntarios nuevos deben trabajar un mínimo de 2 semanas consecutivas en la misma ubicación. Podría ser posible trabajar dos semanas adicionales.

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

☛ Los voluntarios deben trabajar las horas básicas del programa. La posibilidad de trabajar más horas básicas se determina de acuerdo con las necesidades del sitio. Nadie puede ser voluntario por más de ocho horas diarias.

☛ Nuestro objetivo es situar a los voluntarios cerca de su hogar y en los programas de su elección. Sin embargo, no podemos garantizar las ubicaciones.
