eCheck 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.
Performing Arts, Sports, Arts and Crafts, Science, Nature, Gaming and Technology and Much More!
What do you want to do this summer? There's something for everyone!Summer was designed to give kids a break from school, 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 how to ride a bike, play classic and electronic games or explore the great outdoors, Arlington has something to offer.
Qualified Staff Make it Happen Camp and playground counselors are special people. Department of Parks and Recreation 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 school teachers, 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 qualifica-tions 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 Youth with disabilities are welcome to register for any programs of interest. As part of our inclusion philosophy, we have designated Madison CC and Fairlington CC Little Explorers camps; and Discovery ES Summerfest as sites that receive additional services. These sites have a lower staff to camper ratio, provide additional training for staff on program modifications, offer positive behavior supports and create connections for individuals with and without disabilities.
The Therapeutic Recreation office can help ensure that modifica-tions are in place for your child to have a successful camp experi-ence. Advanced notice for any requests for modifications are wel-come. Reasonable modifications could include: adapted equipment and techniques, specialized staff training, sign language interpreters, accessible facilities, additional staff, or large print and Braille materials. We strive to find the best fit for your camper and at times it may be necessary to change a camper’s placement if the support, assistance and modification necessary for participation can best be provided at an alternate site. You can also check our Therapeutic Recreation (TR) Camps on pages 14 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, 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 individuals with disabilities. Interested? Go to parks.arlingtonva.us, keyword “summer employment.”
CLASSIC CAMPS offer a variety of programming options, both structured and unstructured, that include art, sports, trips and more.
OVERNIGHT CAMPS are a combo of a classic camp, nature/adventure camp and sleepover.
NATURE, ADVENTURE OR HISTORY CAMPS 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.
Help Wanted: You!
COMMUNITY CENTER BASED CAMPS are programs for children ages 5-11, designed to give families a full-day camp at their local commu-nity center offering a variety of fun and active play!
CREATIVE ARTS CAMPS 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 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 ultimate Frisbee or tennis.
CAMPS FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES are camps specifically designed for individuals with physi-cal, emotional, social or cognitive/mental challenges. Please note! We can make accommodations in any camp for kids with disabilities. Just let us know what camp and what you need.
IMAGINATION EXPLORATION CAMPS bring kids with special interests in science, magic, history and imagination strategy games together.
TEENS/TWEEN CAMPS are for ages 10-16 across all areas (sports, imagi-nation, creative arts, nature, and more). Check the Camp Grid (p.4) for specific camps for specific ages. Camps that are for youth through teen are listed separately (not in the teen/tween section).
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 20 for great registration tips!

CampFacts 1O1Everyone 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, and program boundaries. While each camp has a specific policy 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. Indicates an Arlington County camp. Register online at registration.arlingtonva.us or use the registration form on page 21 and Participant Information Record Form on page 22 to register for these camps only.
2. Children must wear appropriate clothing and shoes for the camp and its activities. Sandals are not allowed except on water days.
3. Children must bring their lunch to full day camps.
4. Caregivers should pick up a calendar of activities on the first day of each camp session on site.
5. 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 injury at camp.
6. 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 discre-tion of program staff. Camp and playground counselors are trained to use supportive strate-gies and available resources to encourage positive participation as alternatives to removal.
7. 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 decid-ing factor.
8. Field trips are subject to change or cancellation due to inclement weather or if appropriate trans-portation is unavailable.
9. 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 onto parks.arlingtonva.us, search summer camp.
10. 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-Arlington County camps. Call the registration Office for more information 703-228-4747.
11. Camps with insufficient enrollment will be canceled. Registration staff will help direct families to comparable open programs.

*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 Little Explorers, and Discovery 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 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 the Department of Parks and Recreation 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 opportunities 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 Department of Parks
and Recreation 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 physical fitness through fun and challenging activities. In order to provide safe opportunities for physical activity, it is imperative that your camper wears sneakers that fit properly. Laces or Velcro must be tied and secured for a snug fit 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. Department of Parks and Recreation Staff will consult with a parent when improper footwear is worn.

20 2016 Arlington County Guide to Summer Camps › Online Registration begins 7 a.m., February 17, 2016! › http://registration.arlingtonva.us/
How to Register for Arlington County Camps
Make your online registration a success by preparing BEFORE the registration period begins.
1.Choose your preferred options for Summer Camps and note the activity number and session number. Camp codes are shown with each Arlington County camp listing.
2.For online registration, go to registration.arlingtonva.us starting on February 17. For help with online pro-cessing check out “Online Registration Tips & Tricks
For Success”). For other types of registration, complete and sign the Arlington County Camp Registration Form (page 21). Please note that households with an overdue balance from previous camps or classes must pay off their balance before registering a child for camp.
3.Complete and sign participant information/emer-gency record found at https://egov.Arlingtonva.Us/campforms and page 22 of this catalog. Preschool
Camps will require additional paperwork. For more information on these forms and medication forms, visit parks.arlingtonva.us/programs/camps/forms. All forms must be submitted online or received by our registration office 30 days prior to the start of camp. After this deadline all forms must be handed in person at the main registration office.
Waitlists Arlington County camps are very popular. The sooner you register
the more likely you will get the spot you want. Registrations will be pro-cessed to accommodate first and second choices. If an opening is not available, you will be placed on the wait list. DPR staff use waitlists to make decisions, and the County process many cancellations throughout the summer; therefore, there is a good chance that you can 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. Online registration confirma-tions can be printed using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 or higher, but enrollment is not confirmed until all paperwork is received. Camp staff reserve the right to turn away campers with incomplete paperwork.

Did you know the first day of camp registration is the
busiest day online? Make your online registration a success
by preparing before the registration period begins.
Late Registrations and FormsAll required paperwork must be received no later than 30 days prior to the camp week or campers may not be allowed to participate and no refunds will be processed. Registrations will be accepted up to the Monday prior to the camp start date, if space is available. For late reg-istrations, all documents must be delivered to the Registration Office, and a Summer Camp Ticket will be provided to the parent. It is the par-ent’s 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 can request modifications to the Therapeutic Recreation Office (703-228-4740 and [email protected]) in advance of the camp session. If an individual 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/Record form. There is no additional fee for this service. This additional information is important in order to provide modifications so that every participant will be successful in the chosen program.
Non County Residents Non-resident registration for Arlington County camps begins March 2, 2016. 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 ReductionsDon’t let fees be a barrier. Arlington County residents may request a fee reduction! All participants must submit fee reduction applications 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 5.
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 the responsibility 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 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 finalized 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.
Paying with checks? Make it payable to “Treasurer, Arlington County” and include registrant’s name, address and phone number and current date. Check must be signed. Returned checks are subject to a $50 fee.

22 2016 Arlington County Guide to Summer Camps › Online Registration begins 7 a.m., February 17, 2016! › http://registration.arlingtonva.us/
If you are 13 or older, please join a large group of 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, sing-alongs, 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.
Arlington Loves its Volunteers! Ready to Apply?

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 (two weeks for Project FIVE camp). New volunteers must work their first two weeks consecutively 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.

NUESTRO PERSONAL CUALIFICADO LO REALIZAN Consejeros de campamentos son personas especiales. A personal del Departamento de parques y recreación le debe encanta trabajar con gente joven. Ellos son creativo, entusiasmado, comprometido y sincero... y supremamente paciente y muy divertido. De hecho, muchos de los consejeros de campamento de Arlington han sido campistas, a menudo en los programas que ahora dirigen. Mucho de nuestro personal comprometido son profesores, estudiantes universitarios y graduados universitarios que esperan encontrar una carrera permanente trabajando con niños. Son un grupo talentoso y divertido, cada uno con mucha experiencia en su área de especialidad y todos son comprometidos en ayudar a su hijo para ser el mejor que él o ella puede ser. Para asegurar que sus hijos tengan una experiencia positiva y divertida, el Condado de Arlington invierte muchas horas en capacitación de personal y desarrollo. Además de cumplir con los requisitos para su posición, todo el personal de verano asiste a cursos de capacitación obligatorias que se centran en promover la participación positiva; expresión creativa; Juegos cooperativos y adaptativos; actividades saludables para el corazón y las actividades de bienestar; gestión de riesgos y seguridad; servicios de protección infantil; procedimientos y políticas; actividades de planificación; programación positiva y productiva; y el desarrollo de espacios acogedores.
CAMPOS DE ARLINGTON PARA TODOS LOS NIVELES Los jóvenes con discapacidades son bienvenidos a inscribirse en cualquier programa de interés. Como parte de nuestra filosofía de inclusión, hemos señalado los campamentos de "Little Explorers en los centros comunitarios Madison y Fairlington. Tambien tenemos el campamento Summerfest en la escuela Discovery." como sitios que reciben servicios adicionales. Estos sitios tienen una plantilla inferior al cociente de camper, proporcionan capacitación adicional para el personal sobre las modificaciones de programa, ofrecen apoyos de comportamiento positivo y crean conexiones para personas con y sin discapacidad. La oficina de recreación terapéutica puede ayudar a asegurar que las modificaciones están en lugar para que su hijo tenga una exitosa experiencia de campamento. Antelación para cualquier solicitud de modificación es preferible. Modificaciones razonables pueden incluir: adaptado de equipos y técnicas, formación del personal especializado, intérpretes de lengua de signos, instalaciones accesibles, personal adicional, o grandes y materiales Braille. Nos esforzamos por encontrar el mejor ajuste para su camper y a veces puede ser necesario cambiar la colocación de un camper si el apoyo, asistencia y modificaciones necesarias para la participación pueden prestarse mejor en un lugar alternativo. También puede consultar nuestros campamentos de recreación terapéutica (TR) en las páginas 14. Póngase en contacto con la oficina de TR [email protected], 703-228-4740 para obtener más información.
FITARLINGTON Cada campista en los campamentos de verano del Departamento de Parques y Recreacion puede disfrutar de un estilo de vida sano y activo. Actividad física controla peso, combate las enfermedades y condiciones crónicas de salud, mejora el estado de ánimo, aumenta la energía y promueve mejor sueño. Nuestros programas de recreación se esfuerzan ofrecer oportunidades a cada campista conseguir el ejercicio que necesitan para mantener una vida sana. Integramos al menos 45 minutos de moderado a vigoroso ejercicio a través de deportes interactivos y juegos a cargo de nuestro personal.
Es nuestro objetivo proporcionar un ambiente donde los campistas son capaces de aumentar su capacidad aeróbica, fuerza muscular y la aptitud física en general a través de actividades divertidas y desafiantes. Para proporcionar oportunidades seguras para la actividad física, es imprescindible que su campista lleve zapatillas que se adapten correctamente, por ejemplo Cordones o Velcro atado y asegurado para un calce a pie. Zapatos sueltos no son ideales para actividades físicas. También se deben usar calcetines. Para su propia seguridad, campistas con calzado inadecuado no podrán participar. Personal del Departamento de Parques y Recreacion consultará con los padres cuando se lleva calzado inadecuado.

Los niños disfrutan y se llenan de emociones positivas a través del deporte; mostrando sus talentos a través de las artes; cosechando los beneficios del voluntariado; vigorizando su imaginación a través del juego creativo; explorando el exterior a través de programas de naturaleza; y montones de aventuras. Al mismo tiempo haciendo amigos y recuerdos de por vida. El verano es el momento perfecto para reunir a personas y cultivar un desarrollo sano que ayuda a los jóvenes crecer confiados, dedicados y responsable!
Artes Escénicas, Deportes, Artes Y Manualidades, Ciencia, Naturaleza, Juegos Y Tecnología Y Mucho Más!
¿Qué quieres hacer este verano? !Hay algo para todos!El verano fue diseñado para dar a los niños un descanso de la escuela, ayudar a probar nuevas experiencias y crecer mentalmente, físicamente y socialmente. Si su hijo quiere perfeccionar una habilidad deportiva, ser creativo, estar en un juego, aprender a andar en bicicleta, jugar juegos clásicos y electrónicos o explorar al aire libre, Arlington tiene algo que ofrecer.
Nuestro Personal calificado lo realizan
Consejeros de campamentos son personas especiales. A personal del Departamento de parques y recreación le debe encanta trabajar con gente joven. Ellos son creativo, entusiasmado, comprometido y sin-cero... y supremamente paciente y muy divertido. De hecho, muchos de los consejeros de campamento de Arlington han sido campistas, a menudo en los programas que ahora dirigen. Mucho de nuestro personal comprometido son profesores, estudiantes universitarios y graduados universitarios que esperan encontrar una carrera per-manente trabajando con niños. Son un grupo talentoso y divertido, cada uno con mucha experiencia en su área de especialidad y todos son comprometidos en ayudar a su hijo para ser el mejor que él o ella puede ser. Para asegurar que sus hijos tengan una experiencia positiva y divertida, el Condado de Arlington invierte muchas horas en capacitación de personal y desarrollo. Además de cumplir con los requisitos para su posición, todo el personal de verano asiste a cursos de capacitación obligatorias que se centran en promover la partici-pación positiva; expresión creativa; Juegos cooperativos y adaptativos; actividades saludables para el corazón y las actividades de bienestar; gestión de riesgos y seguridad; servicios de protección infantil; pro-cedimientos y políticas; actividades de planificación; programación positiva y productiva; y el desarrollo de espacios acogedores.
Campos de Arlington para todos los niveles
Los jóvenes con discapacidades son bienvenidos a inscribirse en cualquier programa de interés. Como parte de nuestra filosofía de inclusión, hemos señalado los campamentos de "Little Explorers" y "Summerfest" como sitios que reciben servicios adicionales. Estos sitios tienen una plantilla inferior al cociente de camper, proporcionan capacitación adicional para el personal sobre las modificaciones de programa, ofrecen apoyos de comportamiento positivo y crean con-exiones para personas con y sin discapacidad.
La oficina de recreación terapéutica puede ayudar a asegurar que las modificaciones están en lugar para que su hijo tenga una exitosa expe-riencia de campamento. Antelación para cualquier solicitud de modifi-cación es preferible. Modificaciones razonables pueden incluir: adaptado de equipos y técnicas, formación del personal especializado, intérpretes de lengua de signos, instalaciones accesibles, personal adicional, o grandes y materiales Braille. Nos esforzamos por encontrar el mejor ajuste para su camper y a veces puede ser necesario cambiar la colo-cación de un camper si el apoyo, asistencia y modificaciones necesarias para la participación pueden prestarse mejor en un lugar alternativo. También puede consultar nuestros campamentos de recreación tera-péutica (TR) en las páginas 14. Póngase en contacto con la oficina de TR [email protected], 703-228-4740 para obtener más información.

Hechos Básicos de Campamento Todo el mundo puede tener un gran momento este verano, sin poner a otra persona en peligro. Todos los participantes deben seguir las indicaciones y ser respetuosos con sus compañeros campistas, el personal y límites del programa. Mientras cada campo tiene una política específica para cada sesión, hay políticas comunes entre todos los campos de Arlington. Estas políticas fueron desarrolladas para asegurar que todos los niños son seguros y tienen la mejor oportunidad para un verano divertido y enriquecedor.

6.

7. Para mantener los niños seguros, programas de verano pueden limitar o cancelar las actividades al aire libre, o incluso cancelar programas, en los días de "Code Red". Seguridad de la caravana es el factor decisivo.

LISTAS DE ESPERACampamentos del Condado de Arlington son muy populares. Cuanto antes de que se registra más probable obtendrá el lugar que desee.

Si tiene 13 o más, por favor, Únete a un grupo grande, enérgico y comprometido. Pueden diver-tirse mientras contribuyen sus talentos a la comunidad. Necesitamos su apoyo para ayudar al personal con el interés general, interés especial y campos de recreación terapéutica (voluntarios se colocan sólo en los campos operados por el Departamento de parques y recreación, no en los campos contratados).
¡Voluntarios toman un papel de liderazgo con el apoyo de personal capacitado en toda la diversión y campistas de actividades emocionantes disfrutan, incluyendo excursiones, manu-alidades, natación, canciones, juegos y mucho más! Si usted está buscando una oportunidad de desarrollo personal o profesional o simplemente tiene el deseo de trabajar con jóvenes, el voluntariado puede ser muy gratificante. Es una oportunidad para hacer amigos, trabajar con niños en un entorno de recreo supervisado y ganar valiosa experiencia en un rol de liderazgo. Para ser elegible para un estudiante asistente puesto en campos del Condado de Arlington en el futuro, debe haber sido voluntario en al menos un verano. El número de posiciones de asistente de estudiante es limitado, pero DPR no contratar a cualquier persona que no ha sido un campa-mento de verano voluntario.
ARLINGTON AMA A SUS VOLUNTARIOS!

DIRECTRICES PARA GRANDES OPORTUNIDADES DE VOLUNTARIADO:• Voluntarios deben ser por lo menos 13 y al menos dos años de
más viejo que el camper más antigua en el programa en el que se colocan.
• Los voluntarios no se colocan dónde estaban los campistas el verano anterior o donde los miembros de su familia son campistas actuales.
• Los voluntarios deben trabajar durante cuatro semanas (dos semanas para el campamento proyecto cinco). Nuevos voluntarios deben trabajar sus dos primeras semanas con-secutivamente en el mismo lugar. Es posible trabajar semanas adicionales.
• Los voluntarios deben trabajar horas del programa base. Trabajar más de las horas de base está determinada por las necesidades del sitio. Nadie puede ofrecerse voluntariamente más de ocho horas al día.
• Nuestro objetivo es colocar a voluntarios cerca de su casa y en los programas de su elección. Sin embargo, no podemos garantizar las colocaciones.
