Teen Service Learning Opportunities TR Camp Assistant

TR Mainstream Companion

Leadership Training for TR volunteers. This interactive training will help prepare volunteers to work with children with disabilities in our summer programs. The workshop will focus on leadership and communication skills as well as disability and sensitivity awareness. Student Service hours will be awarded for the training when you complete your volunteer service. Select one training session when you register.

TR Camp Assistant Summer Volunteer. Are you a teen who's interested in teaching special education? Do you go to school with a student with a disability but didn't know how to approach him or her? Gain valuable experience by providing general assistance and support in a Therapeutic Recreation camp designed for children with physical, developmental, or learning disabilities. You must be at least 14 by the start of the program session. Camp descriptions listed on pages 30-31.

Teens can experience, first hand, the satisfaction of helping children with disabilities gain the most from their summer. You can enjoy, learn and contribute in giving a child with a disability the opportunity to integrate into one of the summer camps, clinics or summer fun centers. You must be at least 14 by the start of the program session. If you want to volunteer for multiple sessions, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator at 240-777-6891.

Splish, Splash, Drip, Drop

Come investigate the wonders of water! We'll explore the streams and ponds at Brookside Nature Center, as well as Pine Lake and Northwest Branch to find out how these bodies of water were formed and who lives there. As junior naturalists we'll scout for frogs, fish, ducks and dragonflies, and learn how to catch, identify and safely release other aquatic critters. We'll hunt for sparkly schist and tiny garnets, and visit a streamside Native American rock shelter, too. As water admirers, we'll create artwork and crafts, and study water with simple scientific tools. Please bring close-toed shoes and a towel, so that we can go wading when the weather is nice.

A Sense of Nature Camp

In this camp we'll use all our senses to make sense of nature. We'll make perfume, taste rocks, walk blindfolded through the woods, look through binoculars and microscopes...all the while listening, seeing, touching and smelling to discover natural truths both sublime and surprising. We'll also enlist our sense of humor and look for nature's funny side, and learn how animals use their senses to survive in the wild. It's nature education on an experiential, playful level that every child can access. Brookside Nature Center 225955

Take to the Air!

The silent wing of the owl, a flapping kite, a whirring helicopter and roaring rocket all have something in common. They take to the air! What have we learned about flight from our animal friends, and how did we apply that knowledge so that we, too, could fly? We'll examine everything from bird feathers to man-made fliers, have fun with physics and investigate the forces and forms of flight. We'll make helicopters and airplanes, launch rockets, try our hand at flight simulators and more. Take the leap and explore how things soar! Brookside Nature Center 225954

In order to make reasonable accommodations based on individuals’ needs and abilities, please register at least two weeks in advance of the program start date, and request accommodation at that time.

How to Register for a

Montgomery Parks SUMMER CAMP

Set up your ParkPASS account • Visit www.ParkPASS.org to set up your account online. Please note: It can take up to two business days to activate a new account (especially if you sign up on a Friday). • If you need help, contact the ParkPASS Help Desk at 301-495-2580 (M-F, 10am-2pm), or email us at MCP-ParkPASSHelp@MontgomeryParks.org. • Visit one of our ParkPASS facilities (see the Montgomery Parks Directory in this catalog), and they can help you set up a ParkPASS account on site.

Fill out and submit the necessary forms We'll need a Day Camp Participant Profile form for each camper. NOW ONLINE! A screen in ParkPASS will pop up in the middle of your registration process. Answer the questions, click "OK," and either "continue shopping" or "check out." Camp directors will be in touch about signing this form (they'll either mail it to you beforehand, or have it ready for you to sign the first day of camp). • If you register for another camp online later, you won't need to answer these questions again— a screen with your previous answers will pop up, and you can update/correct, or just click "OK." • If your child requires any medication to be administered during camp hours, we'll also need a Day Camp Medication Form. Because this form requires a doctor's signature, you'll need to print it out, fill it out, get it signed and return it to the facility hosting your camp. You'll find a .pdf of this form at www.ParkPASS.org. Again, the camp director will be in touch to let you know if they'd like you to mail the signed form in before camp starts, or just bring it with you the first day of camp. • If your child does not need medication during camp, you'll be able to tell us this online when you register, and will not need to print out or fill out the Medication Form. •

Montgomery Parks SUMMER CAMP Refund Policy If Montgomery Parks has to cancel a Summer Camp, you will be notified and receive a full credit on your ParkPASS account, or at your request, a full refund (issued in the same form as received).

You may choose to receive a 100% credit to your ParkPASS account for future programs or classes, or receive a refund (issued in the same form as received), less a 20% administrative fee. If your written request is received less than two (2) weeks prior to the start of the camp, no credit or refund will be issued unless your spot can be filled from the waitlist. If your spot is filled, you may choose to receive a 100% credit to your ParkPASS account for future programs or classes, or receive a refund (issued in the same form as received), less a 20% administrative fee. Please allow 3-4 weeks to receive a check refund. Credit card refunds can take 5-7 days to appear on your credit card account, depending on the policies of your bank/credit card company.
