Age Requirements Children attending Skokie Park District camps must be age appropriate. Ages listed refer to the age of the child as of September 1, 2013 unless otherwise noted. Preschool campers three years of age must be toilet trained and the appropriate age by the beginning of their first day of camp. A copy of a birth certificate is required with the registration form when specifically stated within individual camp descriptions.

Camper Groupings & Staff-to-Camper RatioGroup sizes vary from program to program. An average camp staff-to-participant ratio is 1:12. Any group exceeding 12 children will be supplemented with an additional staff person. Camp programs that accommodate children under the age of 5 have a camp staff-to-participant ratio of 1:8.

Special Needs (American Disability Act)The Skokie Park District welcomes the participation of all individuals in our programs, including those with disabilities. We are fully committed to complying with the ADA and providing reasonable accommodations to facilitate participation in our programs.

Please assist us in providing a positive experience for your child with special needs by notifying the camp supervisor (see page 1) of any special needs at the time of enrollment. Your confidentiality will be respected. The sooner we know about your special situation, the more time we have to make reasonable accommodations to improve your child’s recreational experience and to ensure a smooth integration of your child into our camp program.

Individuals who are hearing impaired and want information regarding park district or M-NASR programs should call (847) 966-5522.

Sign-In & Out ProceduresEvery camper must be signed in and out by the person dropping off and picking him/her up. We will not release a child to someone whose name is not on the authorized pick-up form. Parents will be asked to show a picture ID.

InsuranceThe Skokie Park District does not provide individual Accident and Health Insurance.

Special Dietary Needs, Kosher/Food AllergiesCampers on restricted diets will gladly be accommodated. Parents will be advised of food selections in advance. Alternate choices will be provided whenever possible. Please indicate your special dietary needs on the registration form at the time of enrollment.

Illness PolicyChildren should not be brought to camp with illnesses that are contagious or with fevers, diarrhea, vomiting, or unidentifiable rashes. Campers may not return to the program until they are fever and/or diarrhea free for 24 hours. Children who are not participating normally (who show extreme lethargy or fatigue) will be considered ill and sent home.

Medication PolicyMedication may be given to a child when authorized by the child’s physician. All medication must remain in the original container indicating the child’s name, type, and date of the prescribed medication, and amounts and time of dosage. A medication consent form must be signed by the child’s parents and given to the Camp Director.

Everything Under the SunAll camps are held outdoors daily with limited or no use of air-conditioned indoor facilities with the exception of Camp Art!, Circus Camp, Summer On Broadway, World Travelers, Little Travelers and Weber Indoor Sports Camp. During heat emergency days, children are rotated into indoor facilities/shade areas and given frequent water breaks.

Camp AttireChildren attending Park District camps should wear comfortable clothing and athletic shoes. Please keep in mind that our camps provide a relaxed, informal setting, therefore we recommend that you keep your valuable clothing and accessories at home. We also suggest that you label your child’s belongings. Camp t-shirts will be distributed to each participant during the first week of programming.

Picture ThisRegistrants and participants permit the taking of photographs and video of themselves and their children during Skokie Park District activities for publication, as the Park District deems necessary.

It’s Raining, It’s PouringCamp will be held whether it rains or shines.

Late Pick-up PolicyCamp staff will supervise children who are left beyond the scheduled pick-up time until a parent or other authorized adult on the pick-up list arrives. However, late pick-ups will result in a fee. The first time a parent is late a fee will be charged at a rate of $5 for the first 15 minutes and $1 for every minute thereafter. The second time a parent is late, the charge will be $10 for the first 15 minutes; the third time, the charge will be $15 and will continue in $5 increments for each occurrence. The dollar-per-minute charge will stay constant. Payment of the late fee is due at the time of pick-up. All measurements of time are to be according to the clock located at the camp.

Summer SchoolWe have created a variety of camp programs that complement summer school. If your child plans on attending summer school we encourage you to consider Camp Art!, Terminal Park Camp, Camp Iwannago, or Middle School Sports Camp. Please note that campers attending summer school will miss scheduled field trips and swimming. Parents will need to make alternate arrangements for childcare on these program days.

Camp StaffOur summer staff contribute to the success of our diverse camp programs! A qualified and experienced adult director supervises each camp daily. Counselors at each camp are a mixture of mature and enthusiastic college and high school students, parents, educators and coaches. All camp staff completes an extensive training program, which includes supervision and safety techniques, program development and CPR.

Summer Job OpportunitiesBe a camp leader! If you are over the age of 16 and you are looking for a fun-filled opportunity as a camp leader, then the Skokie Park District has an opportunity for you.

Establishing a Household in personSkokie Residents When establishing a household in person at any Park District facility please bring proof of residency as explained at right.

Non-residents Non-residents may establish a household by walking into any facility. No proof of residency is required.

Establishing a Household onlineSkokie Residents It is extremely important to establish your household on-line at least two business days prior to resident registration on January 27. When you enroll a new household on the web your household is automatically flagged as a non-resident household until you show proof of residency, in person, at any Skokie Park District facility. If you wait until the resident registration date to establish your household you will not be allowed to register on-line because your household will be flagged as a non-resident even if you have entered a valid Skokie address. (Non-residents are not able to enroll in camp until February 22.)

Non-residents It is important to establish your household on-line with the Park District prior to non-resident camp registration on February 22. Although all new households established on-line are immediately flagged as non-resident households, new accounts are processed the next business day. If you wait to establish your household until registration day you will not be allowed to register online.

Proof of Residency Acceptable proof of residency includes: valid driver’s license, utility bill or property tax bill. The individual’s primary residence must be within the Skokie Park District boundaries (which may vary from the Village of Skokie’s boundaries – check your property tax bills). Any owner of real estate within the boundaries paying taxes to the Skokie Park District will be considered a resident, as will his immediate family. Immediate family is defined as husband, wife, (or life partner) and children who reside at the real estate owner’s residence. Residency rates for Skokie Park District camp programs apply to residents of zip codes 60076, 60077, 60203 and for families not living or paying taxes to the Skokie Park District that attend Skokie School District 69. However, District 69 families not living or paying taxes to the Skokie Park District cannot register until the non-resident registration date of February 22.

Waiver RequiredFor insurance purposes, Park District programs and activities require a signed waiver. Please sign the waiver section on the registration form or receipt. Patrons will not be able to participate in classes or programs if the waiver is not signed.
