Help Wanted: You!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 help 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 special needs. Interested? Call 703-228-3327.

Summertime and Living is Easy! 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. Arlington’s quality programs encourage youth to get involved, develop their sense of self and community, show positive sportsmanship, be creative and learn from those who have different life experiences than they do. We call it “asset building.” Summer is the perfect time to bring people together by nurturing a healthy development that helps young people grow up confident, caring and responsible.

Fit ArlingtonEvery camper in our DPR summer camps can 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 our DPR summer camps through interactive sports and games run by our staff.

It is our goal to provide an environment where the campers are able to increase their aerobic capacity, muscular strength, and overall physical fitness through fun and challenging activities. In order to provide safe opportuni-ties 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.

Cure the Summer Time Blues! Chose from

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 (or we won’t hire them). They are creative, enthusiastic, committed and sincere...plus super-patient and loads of fun! In fact, many of Arlington’s camp and play-ground 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 training that focuses 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.

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, go fishing, be in a play, learn magic, play mind-adventure games….or just plain hang, Arlington has something to offer.Classic Camps (page 6) 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 7) 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.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 14) are camps specifically designed for individuals with physical, emotional, social or cognitive/mental challenges.Imagination Exploration Camps (page 16) bring kids with special interests in science, magic, history and imagination strategy games together.Community Center Based Camps (page 18) are community center-based programs for those who are looking for flexible programs that will engage kids.

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 and Fairlington Tot camps; and McKinley Elementary Summerfest as sites that receive additional services. These sites have a lower camp maximum, lower staff to camper ratio and additional training for staff on program modifications, behavior management and inclusion of individuals with disabilities. Also check our TR Camps on page 14.

But please note, your child can attend any camp of interest. Trained Therapeutic Recreation (TR) staff can assist you in making sure your child has the right support and accommodations to ensure that they have a safe and successful experience at camp. 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 or TTY 703-228-4743 for more information.

Where it is!Camp Facts 101 Everyone can have a great time this summer, but not at another’s expense. All participants must follow directions and be respect-ful of fellow campers, staff, property, and program boundar-ies. 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 chance of an enriching and fun summer.

1. Children must wear appropri-ate 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. Anyone enrolled in DPR Camps and Nature Center Camps are automatically covered under a group accident policy.

5. Behavior resulting in extreme disruption or intentional harm to self, others or property can result in removal from the program 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. indicates an Arlington County camp. Use the registration form on page 21 to register for these camps only.

Oportunidades de campamento para personas con discapacidadesEl Condado de Arlington sostiene una filosofía de inclusión por la cual las personas con discapacidades 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, menor 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 RT 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 RT 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.

Volunteer! Arlington Loves Volunteers!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 contract camps). Volunteers take a leadership role with the support of trained staff in all the fun and exciting activi-ties 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 experi-ence in a leadership role. In the future, in order to be eligible for a paid Student Assistant position in Arlington County camps, you must have been a volunteer with us 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.

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 campa-mento, 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 automáti-camente 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”.

¡Arlington ama a los voluntarios!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 oportuni-dad para hacer amigos, trabajar con niños en un ambiente recreativo supervisado y obtener experiencia invalorable en un rol de liderazgo. 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. 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.
