THE NEWSPAPER FOR SUMMER CAMP 2015
Q How does the new “online registration” work for Summer Camp?
A Review the Camp brochure or application for dates, times, and cost. Camp information is avail-able on our website at tucsonracquetclub.com. Then, click on the link for “online registration”. From there you will be led through the registra-tion process, create your online account, print your receipt, and receive email confirmation. Relax and wait for summer!
Q How do I register and pay for PreCamp and AfterCamp?
A Do nothing now. Just show up on your first day. You will register for PreCamp and After-Camp upon drop off in the morning. No need to register ahead of time. Billing will be done at the end of each week to your “Camp Account”.
Q What’s for lunch?
A Cool stuff! I meant to say hot stuff ...prepared fresh daily in our own restaurant. Menu items include a variety of kids’ favorites. A “Camp Menu” for the summer is posted on our website. If you don’t like what we’re serving on any particular day …you're wel-come to pack a lunch.
Q How are campers grouped?
A We evaluate students on the first morning in
all of our Camps. Campers are placed with students of similar age and abilities. We also strive to maintain friendship associations if appropriate.
Q Is camp safe?
A In our many years in the camp business, safety has been our first priority. The low student to in-structor ratios allow for close supervision and the safety of our campers — while providing a healthier and more productive learning envi-ronment. The pool is permanently staffed with two certified lifeguards in addition to our own Summer Camp staff.
Q How can I keep track of all my belong-ings while at camp?
A Put everything in a backpack or sports bag and clearly label all belongings with a perma-nent marker.. We have an engraver on site to permanently mark racquets. Pee Wee’s are provided with ‘cubbies’ for storage. Tennis, Soccer and All Sports Campers keep their backpacks or sports bags with them.
Q What do I bring on the first day?
A Camp essentials include a hat, swimsuit, towel, and plenty of waterproof sunscreen. Bring your own water bottle. Dress appropri-ately for sports ...no flip-flops. Put all belong-
ings into a sports bag or backpack. Don't have a racquet? No problem, loaners are available in all Camps. Visit our Camp website for detailed in-formation on "Surviving Camp".
Q How do campers survive Tucson’s summer heat?
A Creative scheduling! "Pee Wee" tennis and basketball (outside) are scheduled in the cool early morn-ing hours. Later "Pee Wee" activi-ties are either indoors or in the pool. "All Sports" activities are rotated every forty-five minutes. Sports are creatively switched between “cool-off” sports (swimming, martial arts, volleyball, rac-quetball) and outdoor sports (tennis and basket-ball). We schedule water and Gatorade breaks, insist on hats and sunscreen, and keep a watchful eye for potential problems. Lunch is a full one hour of "cool-down" and relaxation.
