SUMMER DAY CAMP
                  Letter to Parents
              Dear Parents,
                       The City of Round Rock Parks and Recreation Department is
              extremely pleased to welcome you and your child to our Summer Day
              Camp Programs. The camp team is very excited about all of the fun ac-
              tivities that we have planned for this upcoming summer. Our mission is
              to provide the youth of Round Rock and surrounding communities with
              summer day camps that enhance each child’s quality of life. We genuine-
              ly hope that your child’s week at camp is one that will create a lifetime
              of memories.
                      The goals of our summer camps are to give the participants a
              positive and nurturing environment that allows for the development of
              their own individual character. We want to provide campers a safe,
              supervised, structured environment. We offer a wide variety of
              programming this summer to stimulate the physical and emotional
              development of each child through diverse activities ranging from:
              theme activities, sports, field trips, swimming, arts and crafts, and much
              more.
                      Enclosed in this information packet you will find all of the
              necessary information to ensure your child’s enjoyment and safety at
              camp. The City of Round Rock Summer Programs believe that
              developing young children is our most important purpose. It is our
              objective to consistently guide children toward appropriate and
              acceptable social behavior. It is our mission to provide the best
              summer camp program we can. Please let us know if your family has any
              special needs, or if there is anything that we can do to make this camp
              experience the best that it can be for your campers. We hope to not
              only meet, but to exceed, the expectations of you and your family.
              Sincerely,

              Summer Camp Program Team

SUMMER DAY CAMP
                         General Camp Overview
   STANDARDS OF CARE: Our summer day camp programs operate within an adopted City Ordinance that establishes
   the standards of care for which the programs must comply. By adopting the standards of care we are exempt from all
   state child-care licensing requirements. The reasoning for this ordinance is that our programs are recreational in nature
   and not intended as a child care program. The rules and regulations governing day care facilities differ greatly from those
   related to recreational facilities. If you would like a copy of the Standards of Care, they are available to you at any time.
   Please see the Clay Madsen Recreation Center Administration Office to request your copy.
   DROP OFF AND PICK UP TIMES: For our day camps, the recommended drop off time is between 7:00-8:45am and
   the recommended pick up time is between 4:30-6:00pm. We do not allow drop off and pick up when we are off-site
   unless it is coordinated with the camp supervisor at least 24 hours in advance.
   LATE PICK UP FEES: Our programs end at 6:00pm, however, there are situations that may prevent a parent from
   arriving to pick up their child by that time. The following procedures are used when there is a child still at the program
   after 6:00pm:
            •   The parent will get a one-time verbal warning, which is documented.
            •   Should this occur again, the late fee is $1.00 per minute until 7:00pm.
                     *   During this time, the supervisors will make every effort to contact the child’s parents and/or
                         emergency contacts.
            •   If the child is not picked up by 7:00pm and we have not been able to contact anyone on the information
                form, the child will be taken to the Round Rock Police Department.
            •   Late fees will be applied to your account and will be added to your next tuition payment.
            •   We will not accept any money from you at the time of pick up.
            •   Unpaid late fees will result in withdrawal from programs and could prohibit future program
                attendance.
   DROP OFF/PICK UP POLICY: The City of Round Rock Summer Day Camps are very concerned about the safety of
   our campers. We ask that you walk your camper inside each morning to drop them off and come inside to pick them up
   each afternoon. Only persons listed on the camper’s information form are authorized to pick up and sign out your
   camper. Under no circumstances will your child be allowed to leave our program with an unauthorized person.
   PAYMENT PROCEDURES: The Summer Day Camps require you to register and pay in full at time of registration or
   set up a payment plan. Participants will not be registered without payments. Your child will be registered for all summer
   camp weeks you wish them to attend. At the time of registration, 30% of the each week your child is registered for will
   be due. The remaining 70% will be put in as a financial balance in our computer system linked to your family’s account.
   Your balance will be reduced as you make payments according to the payment schedule. The due date for the summer
   day camps is the 1st of the month prior. A $25 late fee will be assessed ON the 15th of the month prior if payment has
   not been received. If payment still has not been received by the 20 th of the month prior, your child will be withdrawn
   from those summer camp weeks. Please note that there are no payment adjustments or credits given for absences,
   except for extreme cases that will be handled and authorized by the Program Coordinator. Any withdrawals must be in
   writing and brought to the Clay Madsen Administration Office.
   FAMILY ASSISTANCE: We believe that every child should have the opportunity to participate in City of Round Rock
   programs. Those unable to pay the full fee may apply for financial aid at the City of Round Rock PARD Office. Because the
   demand for financial assistance is great, scholarships will be awarded on a first-come-first-served basis, subject to available
   resources. Please allow 2 weeks for application to be processed. This is available only to residents of Round Rock. Please
   contact the Clay Madsen Administration Office for more information.

         Option 2) Request a Program Refund. Customer will be charged a $25 administrative fee. Programs
         less than $25 will forfeit all fees and no additional charge will be required.
If you withdraw from a camp less than l4 calendar days from the start date you will have the following
option:
         Option 1) Request a Program Credit. Credit the customer’s account with the balance for a future
         class, camp, special event, or program. Credits must be used within one year.
After a program has begun, a pro-rated credit can be applied. This transaction must be done by the Program
Coordinator. After a program is complete, program refunds or credits are not an option. All withdrawals
must be in writing.

BEHAVIOR GUIDELINES: It is the philosophy of our camps that discipline is positive and serves to teach
children proper behavior, not to punish them. Above all, we will place your child’s physical and emotional well
being paramount. We will not engage in any practices that are physically or psychologically damaging.
It is our goal for counselors, children, and parents to work together toward cooperative behavior and a
cohesive atmosphere. Team members will always notify parents of emerging difficulties and ask for assistance
in behavior management. Additional disciplinary measures may be pursued in some cases if: a child inflicts
physical/emotional harm on other children; is a danger to themselves or others; or is physically or verbally
abusive to counselors and/or others. The following are considered serious in nature:
        •    Theft, Attempts to Steal, or Property Damage
        •    Verbal Abuse or Blatant Disrespect of Counselors or Other Participants
        •    Physical Aggression
        •    Disruptive, Defiant or Disrespectful Behavior
        •    Inappropriate Touching
        •    Children Leaving the Group or Premises Without Approval or an Authorized Escort
        •    Verbal Threats of Severe Harm or Death Threats
BEHAVIOR CONSEQUENCES: Because of the serious nature of behaviors, we will enforce strict and
consistent consequences to prevent future occurrences.
    1st Offense: The parents will be called for immediate pick-up and the child will remain in supervised
         “in-camp suspension” until the parent arrives.
     nd
    2 Offense: 1-3 days “out-of-camp” suspension, based on the severity of the incident. At this time a
         discussion between the Program Coordinator and authorized member of the family will take place,
         followed by a signed written agreement that a repeat offense may result in removal of the program.
         A refund will not be given for these days the child is out.
    3rd Offense: The Program Coordinator will review all documentation and determine if the child will be
         removed from the program. If your child is removed from day camp, a refund will be given if any
         future weeks were paid for in advance, minus our administrative fee.

                                                                                                                  Page 5

SUMMER DAY CAMP
                         General Camp Overview
 BEATING THE SUMMER SUN: Due to the hot weather during the summer, we strive to ensure that the children
 are not outdoors during the hottest time of the day. There will be shade and water stations available. While we ask
 parents to please put sunscreen on their children before coming to day camp, we will also apply sunscreen to children
 before swimming. Help fight heat and dehydration by sending a water bottle with your child.
 LUNCHES/SNACKS: The Summer Day Camps do not provide lunch on a typical camp day and bringing a sack lunch
 is recommended. Campers may have access to a refrigerator and limited access to a microwave to heat their lunch, if
 necessary. The Summer Day Camps will provide a morning and afternoon snack for each camper. Children are
 encouraged to bring alternative snacks from home if they would like. We understand that some children may have
 dietary restrictions or allergies. We take into consideration these restrictions when selecting snack products and will
 ensure your child receives a snack suitable to their diet. Although, due to the limited selection of our snacks, we cannot
 guarantee a great variety among these snacks.
 PERSONAL BELONGINGS: Our programs do not permit campers to bring toys, electronic games, cell phones, or
 other personal articles with them. If items of this nature are brought to camp, we will require that they remain in your
 child’s backpack for the duration of the camp day. The City of Round Rock is not responsible for items that are lost,
 broken or stolen. Articles that are left behind at the end of the day and are not labeled will be placed in the lost and
 found and held for one week, then donated.
 ILLNESS: We urge you to keep children home if they are ill, both for their sake and the sake of other children. If a
 child is feeling ill during the program for a duration of 20 minutes or longer, or is vomiting, has diarrhea, a consistent
 cough, watery or inflamed eyes, acute skin rash, a soar throat, or a temperature over 100°, the Supervisor will contact
 the parent for immediate pickup. There are no refunds for days missed due to illness.
 ACCIDENT/INJURY: If an accident should occur at our program, the Supervisor will advise the parent at the time of
 pick up, unless it is a head injury. All injuries to the head will receive an immediate parent phone call. If emergency
 treatment is warranted, the Supervisor will immediately notify the parent or guardian and the child will be transported
 by ambulance to the nearest medical facility, if necessary.
 PHONE USAGE: The phones lines are limited at the camp locations, therefore we cannot allow the children to use
 the phone anytime they wish. If a child wishes to speak to their parent/guardian, contact will be made through the
 supervisor. In the same regards please do not call the camp location to speak to your child unless it is an emergency.
 MEDICATION: Supervisors will administer medication only if:
 •   Parents complete and sign a medication form that provides authorization for supervisors to dispense medication
     with time and dosage.
 •   Prescription medications are in the original container labeled with the child’s name, a date, directions, and the
     physician’s name.
 •   Medications dispensed will be limited to routine oral ingestion not requiring special knowledge or skills on the part
     of the supervisor. NO injections will be administered by the summer camp employees.
 •   Medications will be held inaccessible to participants and will be kept separate from food.

 TEAM MEMBER TRAINING/CPR AND FIRST AID: All employees are subject to criminal background checks.
 Employees are CPR and First Aid Certified and receive a minimum of 18 hours of training before the beginning of the
 summer.

What’s the Difference?
ADAPTIVE CAMP: Adaptive Youth Camp is for youth (ages 5-12) with disabilities; Adaptive Teen Camp is
for teens and adults (ages 13-21) with disabilities. This program offers daily activities, each related to the
weekly theme, including: swimming, field trips, arts and crafts, sports, drama, cooking, group games and lots
of fun. Morning and afternoon snacks provided. Campers need to bring sack lunches, rest mats, and swim-
wear. Youth camp Ratio is 1 team member for every 4 campers; Teen Camp Ratio is 1 team member for
every 5 campers; Campers must be able to behave and function within this ratio.
DUO QUEST: Allow your camper to experience two summer camps in one at the Duo Quest Camp! Part
one of the camp day will fire up your camper’s mind and body by allowing them to take part in an instructional
class. The second part of the camp day will be filled with arts and crafts, sports, group games, field trips, swim-
ming and lots of fun. Each week offers a different instructional class for the campers to get involved in. For
ages 5-12 Years.
KAPERS AND KIDS/ROCKIN’ R: Don’t let another summer slide by in the blink of an eye while your
child does the same old routine. Sign them up for our Kapers and Kids or Rockin’ R Summer Camp, where
each week is a new adventure. The campers will go on weekly field trips as well as swimming and park days.
They will also participate in indoor and outdoor games, sports, cooking projects, arts and crafts, and much
more. By the end of this summer your kids will have plenty to say when they are asked, “What did do this
summer?” For ages 5–14 Years.
TRAVEL ADVENTURE CAMP: What’s your adventure? Are you ready for some fun? During this camp,
your camper will get to experience a new adventure everyday as will travel to different cities and take part in
a different activities/trips daily. Campers will get a summer filled with swimming, theme parks, water parks,
state parks, and so much more. The camp will depart from the Clay Madsen Recreation Center everyday at
8:00am and will return at 5:00pm. Campers should bring a backpack with a water bottle, swimming gear, sun-
screen, and a sack lunch daily, unless otherwise noted. Weekly schedules will be emailed out the week before
the Adventure week starts. For ages 11-14 years.

                                                                                                                      Page 7

             ON SITE DAYS: Every Monday the camp is onsite all day. We do this to ensure that parents are
             aware of the field trips times and the swim days in advance so that your child comes with every-
             thing necessary for the day. The children have theme based activities and group games through-

             magician, animal show, RR Fire Department, etc.

             SWIM DAYS: During the week the campers are taken to a Round Rock public pool. The camps
             may be rotating pools depending on the week. You will be notified at the beginning of the week
             which pool your child will be visiting. On these days, we ask that parents send their child with a
             swimsuit, sunscreen and a towel. Please label everything your child brings to camp, especially on
             these days.

             PARK DAYS: During the summer we will be going to different parks throughout the area. Some of
             these parks may include Old Settlers Park, where activities will include canoeing and a field
             day; Brushy Creek Park, with a Splash Pad; and Play for All Park which has a large playscape.

             FIELD TRIP DAYS: We will be going on many exciting field trips throughout the summer.
             Some of the field trips due to their location have the camp leaving as early as 9:00am. You
             will be notified with a schedule of events on Monday. Please note that if your child does not
             get to camp by the time the bus has left for the trip, you may take your child to the location
             of the field trip or drop them off after the camp returns for the trip.
