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.
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 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
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. 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.
COMMUNITY CENTER BASED CAMPS are programs for children ages 5-11, designed to give families a full-day camp at their local community 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 physical, 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, imagination, 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).
February 17th 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!
Help Wanted: You!
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 modifications are in place for your child to have a successful camp experience. Advanced notice for any requests for modifications are welcome. 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. 2

CampFacts 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, 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 program according to the Code of Conduct Policy 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. 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 deciding factor. 8. Field trips are subject to change or cancellation due to inclement weather or if appropriate transportation 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.

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!

How to Register for Arlington County Camps Make your online registration a success by preparing BEFORE the registration period begins.
1. 2.
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.
For online registration, go to registration.arlingtonva. us starting on February 17. For help with online processing 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/emergency 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 processed 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 confirmations 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.
20
Late Registrations and Forms All 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 registrations, all documents must be delivered to the Registration Office, and a Summer Camp Ticket will be provided to the parent. It is the parent’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 Reductions Don’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 Refunds All 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.

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. 1.
indica un campo del Condado de Arlington. Regístrese en línea en parks.arlingtonva. us o utilice el formulario de inscripción en la página 19 y el formulario de información de participante y emergencia en la página 20 para inscribirse en estos campos solamente.
2. los niños deben usar ropa apropiada y zapatos para el campo y sus actividades. No se permiten sandalias excepto en días de agua. 3. los niños deben traer su almuerzo a los campamentos de día completos. 4. los cuidadores deben recoger un calendario de actividades el primer día de cada sesión de campo en sitio. 5. Seguro de grupo que está más allá de seguro médico personal está disponible para los participantes del campamento para cubrir gastos médicos incurridos como resultado de lesiones en el campo. 6. Comportamiento dando por resultado daño intencional o interrupción extrema a sí mismo, otros o propiedad puede resultar en suspensión del programa según el código de conducta política a discreción del personal del programa. Consejeros de campamento están entrenados para usar estrategias de apoyo y los recursos disponibles para fomentar la participación positiva como alternativas a la extracción. 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. 8. Excursiones están sujetas a cambio o cancelación debido a inclemencias del tiempo o si transporte apropiado no está disponible.
LISTAS DE ESPERA Campamentos del Condado de Arlington son muy populares. Cuanto antes de que se registra más probable obtendrá el lugar que desee. Inscripciones serán procesadas para dar cabida a opciones de primera y segunda. Si la apertura no está disponible, usted puede colocarse en la lista de espera.

¡Sea un Voluntariado con Nosotros!
Si tiene 13 o más, por favor, Únete a un grupo grande, enérgico y comprometido. Pueden divertirse 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, manualidades, 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 campamento de verano voluntario.
