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.

WANTED:
YOU!
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, get creative, be in a play, learn
magic, play classic and electronic games or explore the great outdoors, Arlington has something to offer.
Classic Camps (page 5) 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 6) 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 (page 16) are programs for children ages 5-11, designed to give families
lots of flexibility, including an option for students attending summer school!
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 13) are camps specifically designed for individuals with
physical, emotional, social or cognitive/mental challenges.
Imagination Exploration Camps (page 15) bring kids with special interests in science, magic, history and
imagination strategy games together.
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 (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 disabilities. Interested? Go to www.arlingtonus/dpr, keyword “summer employment.”
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. 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
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 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
As part of our inclusion philosophy, youth with disabilities are welcome
to register for programs of interest. We have designated Madison
Center and Fairlington Tot camps; and Taylor Elementary Summerfest
as sites that receive additional services. These sites have a lower staff
to camper ratio; and provide additional training for staff on program
modifications, behavior management and inclusion of individuals with
disabilities. Also check our Therapeutic Recreation (TR) Camps on
pages 13-14.
TR staff can help ensure that accommodations are in place for
your child to have a successful camp experience. 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 for more information.

Arlington have a fun, engaging and
asset-building summer. Contribute
to a child’s summer adventures by
donating during the registration
process or on the Arlington County

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, property, and program
boundaries. 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 opportunity for an
enriching and fun summer.

FEE REDUCTIONS: (VEA PÁGINA 24 PARA ASISTENCIA FINANCIERA)
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 Arlington

TOT CAMP
Tot camp provides a fun, social environment
where preschoolers can thrive! Each session
features an exciting theme to enchant your child
through outdoor activities, water play, games, arts
& crafts and special events. We are especially interested in providing 45 minutes a day of movement
activities. Field trips by bus are included at Carlin
Hall and Nottingham only. Field trips consist of one
camp traveling to another to share a performance or
special event. Some weeks there may be a special
event at each camp, and no field trip provided.
Campers should bring a nut free snack each day.

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
Tot Camp, and Taylor 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!

FIT
Every camper in DPR summer camps 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 DPR 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 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.
NATURAL RESOURCE CAMP
We’ll spend the week learning about our amazing
natural resources through a combination of
hands-on discovery, basic experiments, student-centered discussion, related crafts, games, and hikes.

learning while getting sweaty, wet, and even a little
dirty! The week includes two full-day field trips to

FOR PEOPLE ~
~ CAMPS
WITH DISABILITIES
Arlington County maintains a philosophy of inclusion
whereby campers with disabilities are welcome to
register for any camp. We offer different levels of
support to help meet the needs of each individual.
For those needing maximum support, please check
out the TR camps on page 14. For those who are in
between minimum to moderate support, we have
3 inclusions “Designated Sites” at Madison and
Fairlington Center Tot camps, and Taylor Summerfest.
For those who are more independent, there are
many other options for inclusion throughout the
catalog. Everyone who receives support through the
Therapeutic Recreation office (for inclusion or TR
camps) will be sent an Accommodation Packet that will
help TR plan a successful experience for each camper.
Call the TR Office at 703-228-4740 or email TRInfo@
arlingtonva.us if you need recommendations on camps
for your child. Note: the TR Office reserves the right
to reassign campers if staff determines that he or she
would be served more effectively in another program.
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 Tot
Camp, and Taylor 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!

Ah, the thrill of an amusement park…zipping around
on racecars, zooming through the loops of a rollercoaster and enjoying a cold refreshing ice cream
treat at the end of a hot, sticky day. Can’t get any
better than that! Students will divide into competitive theme park teams. They will challenge other
teams in specific engineering-related contests with
the goal of creating the most fantastic and thrilling
theme park experience including making their own
ice cream! Students will also use Multimedia Fusion

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 can be placed on the wait
list. Arlington County class coordinators use waitlists to make decisions, and the County process many cancellations throughout the
summer; therefore, there is a good chance that you 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. You can check your
place in the waitlist by login in to your account online (registration.
arlingtonva.us) and selecting “My Account,” “Print Household
Roster,” and Submit. Online registration confirmations can be printed
using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 or higher, but enrollment is not confirmed
until all paperwork is received.

C
LATE REGISTRATIONS AND FORMS
All required paperwork must be received no later than 5pm the
Monday 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 parents responsibility to take this

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

of Arlington residency and proof of income (such as original free/
reduced lunch letter from APS, WIC, SSI, SSDI, Section 8 Housing,

information on where and when to process fee reductions, please
see page 3.
REGISTRATION CANCELLATIONS,
TRANSFERS AND REFUNDS
All refunds are subject to a $20 administrative charge per participant

registration changes (transfers/cancellations/refunds) are processed
by the Registration Office ONLY and not the 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

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,
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 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.

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.
☛☛ Our goal is to place volunteers near their home and in the programs of their choice.
However, we can’t guarantee placements.
Please note that all campers desiring to swim outside the non-swimmer designated area

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 campamento, 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

de Parques y Recreación está cubierto automáticamente 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.

mental, física y socialmente. Ya sea que su hijo desee refinar sus habilidades en algún deporte, hacer rafting, actuar en una obra, realizar juegos de
destreza mental, aprender magia…o simplemente pasar el tiempo, Arlington tiene algo para ofrecerle.

MANDE A UN NIÑO A UN
CAMPAMENTO…¡POR FAVOR!
En 2004, DPR creó el Fondo de Verano para la
Diversión para cubrir el costo de inscripción y
las excursiones para los niños que de otra forma
no podrían participar debido a las dificultades
económicas. Por favor, ayúdenos a garantizar
que todos los niños de Arlington pasen un verano
divertido y entretenido y que a la vez desarrollen
valores. Contribuya con las aventuras de verano de
un niño mediante una donación durante el proceso
de inscripción o en el Formulario de Inscripción a
Campamentos de Verano del Condado de Arlington.
(página 25)
CAMPAMENTOS PARA TODAS LAS EDADES
En esta Guía de Campamentos de Verano, usted
encontrará actividades para los niños de todas las
edades y habilidades. Para garantizar la diversión,
asegúrese de escoger un campamento que no
sólo satisfaga los intereses de su hijo, sino que
también sea adecuado para la edad/habilidad.
Observe el cuadro de la página 27 para conocer
los campamentos adecuados según la edad. Los
campamentos para niños de edad preescolar
son campamentos exclusivos para que los niños
pequeños abran sus alas y crezcan. Los niños de
edad elemental encontrarán campamentos en
todas las categorías de campamentos…consulte las
opciones. Algunos campamentos ofrecen buenas
opciones de cuidado diurno mientras que otros son
breves, encantadores y ¡realmente valen la pena!
OPORTUNIDADES DE CAMPAMENTO PARA
PERSONAS CON NECESIDADES ESPICALES
El Condado de Arlington sostiene una filosofía
de inclusión por la cual las personas con ol 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,
más 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 TR 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 TR 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.
UN PERSONAL CALIFICADO HACE QUE LAS
COSAS FUNCIONEN
Los asesores del campamento y el campo de juegos
son gente especial. El personal de el Departmento
de Parques y Recreación tiene que adorar el trabajo
con jóvenes (de lo contrario no los contrataríamos).
Ellos son creativos, entusiastas, comprometidos y
sinceros… ¡Y súper pacientes y muy divertidos! De
hecho, muchos de los consejeros de los campamentos
y campos de juego de Arlington han sido campistas,
frecuentemente en programas que ahora dirigen.
Mucho de nuestro personal comprometido son
maestros de escuela, graduados de universidad que
esperan hallar un trabajo permanente con jóvenes.
Son un grupo talentoso y divertido, todos con cantidad
de experiencia en su especialidad, y todos están
comprometidos a ayudar a sus hijos a que sean lo
mejor que puedan ser.
Para asegurar que sus hijos tengan una experiencia
positiva y divertida, el Condado de Arlington invierte
en capacitación y desarrollo de su personal. Además
de cumplir con las calificaciones para su cargo,
todo el personal de verano asiste a 38 horas de
capacitación obligatoria que se centra en la promoción
de la participación positiva, expresión creativa y
juegos de adaptación, actividades saludables y de
bienestar, manejo de riesgos y seguridad, servicios de
protección de la infancia, procedimientos y políticas,
programación positiva y productiva y desarrollo de
apertura a nuevos espacios.

designada para los que no saben nadar deberán realizar una prueba
de natación al momento de ingresar en el agua
i 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 oportunidad para hacer amigos, trabajar con niños en un ambiente recreativo supervisado y
obtener experiencia invalorable en un rol de liderazgo. Recuerda que para poder ser seleccionado como Asistente
Estudiante para los campamentos del Condado de Arlington, debes haber sido voluntario con nosotros durante al
menos un verano. 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.
S
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

☛☛ 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 (no deben ser necesariamente semanas
consecutivas, excepto en los campamentos que tienen sesiones de dos semanas o más). 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.

embargo, no podemos garantizar las ubicaciones.

IPor el presente, otorgo mi permiso sin restricción al Condado de Arlington y sus personas designados a tomar fotografías o grabar en video a mi hijo durante
su participación en los Programas de campamento de verano. Yo renuncio específicamente a cualquier derecho de compensación con respecto al nombre, afinidad, imagen y/o voz de mi hijo. El propósito de esta publicación es facilitar la publicidad de los programas del Condado.

robo o daño a mis bienes y el riesgo de lesiones personales por la participación en actividades recreativas. En consideración de otorgar mi permiso para participar en estas
actividades y para usar las instalaciones del Condado y/u otras actividades y servicios proporcionados por el Departamento de Parques y Recreación del Condado de Arlington,
sus agentes y empleados, incluido el servicio de alimentos, yo, en mi propio nombre, mis testamentarios, administradores, herederos, parientes más cercanos y sucesores, por

resulten o surjan de mi participación o la de mi familia en el Programa de campamento de verano, o estén relacionados con ellas. He leído y comprendido este Acuerdo de exención de responsabilidad y, mediante mi firma, acepto sus términos. Por el presente otorgo el permiso de mi hijo/pupilo para que asista a las excursiones durante este programa.
Comprendo que me informarán anticipadamente de cualquier excursión. El campamento acepta notificar al padre/tutor cada vez que el niño se enferme y el padre/tutor hará
los arreglos necesarios para recoger al niño tan pronto como sea posible. Los padres/el tutor autorizan al campamento a obtener la atención médica inmediata si ocurriera una
emergencia cuando no se los pueda contactar en forma inmediata. Si mi hijo pasa la prueba de competencia de natación intermedia o avanzada realizada por el personal de la
piscina, tiene mi permiso para nadar en la zona profunda y en la zona poco profunda de la piscina.
