Farewell to Bre! For the last 5½ years, the Therapeutic Recreation team of the Rockford Park District has offered me so many opportunities. I’ve grown professionally and personally with coordinating programs, meeting SO many new people, supervising AWESOME staff and interns, and of course, having a blast with all of our program participants. I have learned more than I ever thought I could. I want to thank each and every participant, parent, staff member, intern, colleague, and volunteer for allowing me to have such amazing experiences with the Park District. I’ve learned something from each and every experience, and the Therapeutic Recreation team, participants, their families, and staff have truly become family to me. As coming to the Park District was one of many transitions in my life, I come upon another. My second child is due to arrive in mid-April, and I am taking the opportunity to focus on my growing family. Leaving the Park District was not an easy decision, as each and every one of you has touched my heart. Sincerely, Bre

Adult SERVICES

Are you a biker who is ready to transition from training wheels to a conventional two-wheeled bicycle? This program works with youth, teens and adults with disabilities who experience difficulty in getting past training wheels and on to conventional two-wheeled bikes. Many persons, including individuals with varied disabilities (i.e., mild cerebral palsy, Down Syndrome, autism, and a wide range of developmental delays), can be taught to become successful, even accomplished, bike riders without those dreaded training wheels! iCan Ride staff, in collaboration with Park District staff and volunteers, will assist each rider as they progress through a series of adapted bicycles toward their ultimate goal of riding without training wheels!

We will be learning about healthy food choices, summer recipes, and then put our culinary skills to the test! We will be having a cookout on Wednesday prepared by the staff, but on Thursday, participants will take turns in the kitchen, and you better believe we’ll be sampling all the goodies at snack time! We’ll be leaving dessert to the pros, and will make a stop on Friday at Dairy Queen before heading to Sand Park Pool.

Week 2: Natural Attractions We are surrounded by beauty, sometimes we just need to stop and appreciate it. During week two, we will take advantage of the warm weather by spending lots of time outdoors to experience nature firsthand. Grab your sunscreen and bug repellent, because this week will be full of scavenger hunts, arts and crafts involving nature, outdoor games, and a field trip to Rock Cut State Park.

Week 3: Movie Madness Who doesn’t love movies — from the climactic action scenes to the popcorn and air-conditioned theater! We will spend the week playing fun

movie trivia games, writing letters to our favorite movie stars, and doing our best to watch at least one American classic each day! We will complete our week by taking a cinematic adventure of our own to Showplace 14.

Week 4: Wildlife Wonders Lions, tigers, and bears, oh my! This week will be full of animal themed arts and crafts, wildlife active games, and a trip to see the wild up close and personal at the Madison Park Zoo! This will be a week that you definitely won’t want to miss! We may even get a surprise visit from some local wildlife creatures while at camp.

Week 5: Water Works Water Works isn’t just a property you can buy in Monopoly, it’s also the theme of our fifth week at camp! As we hit the middle of summer with temperatures rising, we will spend the days cool, calm, and collectively drenched. Pack your suits every day, and be ready to get wet while we move and play. The water works week wouldn’t be complete without a field trip to the one and only Magic Waters!

Week 6: Teenage Adventures

playing fun games, doing arts and crafts, and a fair share of lounging. But there will be a healthy amount of extreme adventure mixed into everything too! Be prepared to travel around Rockford. We’ll have so much to do we may not be able to fit it all in our day! Volcano Falls … here come the teens!

Week 7: Sports Galore Do the names Michael Jordan, Mia Hamm, Babe Ruth, Tiger Woods, or Jeff Gordon ring a bell? If so, you must be as big a sports fan as we are! And this week, we will celebrate our love of sports by having our very own obstacle races and sporting competitions. Be prepared to split into teams and work together to be this summer’s team of the year! It will be an action-packed week, then ends with a trip to Ingersoll Golf Course and an Aviators baseball game!

Week 8: Celebrity Week Like all good things, summer will come to an end, but we’ll send it out in style! Get photo ready every single day, because this week will be filled with tons of photos, music, dancing, and of course, … a teen talent show starring YOU, our camp celebrities!

What teenager doesn’t love a good adventure every now and then? We will spend the week

We ask that whenever possible, participants take their medication before or after, rather than during programming. Please understand that the Rockford Park District will administer medication for youth under the age of 18 and/or participants enrolled in our Therapeutic Recreation specific programs only in situations that are absolutely necessary for a participant’s health, and which fall under the Americans with Disabilities Act and District guidelines. In order for staff to administer medication, parents/guardians must complete the appropriate forms.

The District continually strives to reduce such risks and insists that all participants follow safety rules and instructions that are designed to protect the participants’ safety.

Despite careful and proper preparation, instruction, medical advice, conditioning and equipment, there is still a risk of serious injury when participating in any recreational activity. All hazards and dangers cannot be foreseen. Depending on the particular activity, certain risks, dangers and injuries may exist due to inclement weather, slips and falls, poor skill level or conditioning, carelessness, horseplay, unsportsmanlike conduct, premises defects, inadequate or defective equipment, inadequate supervision, instruction or officiating, and other risks inherent to the particular activity. In this regard, it is impossible for the District to guarantee absolute safety.
