Summer Day Camp Swimming Policies

Swimming Trips Policy Please read the following information carefully prior to selecting your child’s swimming designation during registration.

To help ensure the safety of your child while he or she is participating in swimming pool trips this summer, you will be asked to designate him or her as a “Non-Swimmer” or “Swimmer” during registration. Use the following descriptions as a guide for selecting your child’s appropriate swimming designation.

Non-Swimmer:• Non-swimmers have limited or no previous experience with swimming pools or other aquatic environments. They

are unable to independently swim distances of 20 yards or more and/or cannot swim or play comfortably in water that is above their heads.

• If you designate your child as a “Non-Swimmer” he or she will be restricted to chest-deep water on swim trips.

Swimmer:• Swimmers have previous experience with swimming pools or other aquatic environments. They can swim a mini-

mum of 20-yards and can swim or play comfortably in water that is above their heads.

• If you designate your child as a “Swimmer” he or she will be required to pass a swim test each time he or she visits a pool. The swim test requires participants to swim a minimum of 20 yards in water more than five feet deep and continuously tread water for a minimum of 20 seconds.

• Upon successful completion of the required swim test, children designated as “Swimmers” will have full access to both shallow and deep-water areas of the pool during swimming trips. Designated “Swimmers” who do not pass the required swim test will be re-designated as “Non-Swimmers” and restricted to chest-deep water.

• If your child’s swimming abilities change between the time you register for a program and the start of the program, please contact staff, you will need to sign a new form.

If you answer No or Yes – the student is home-schooled or was in a school other than the state of Maryland, then the Maryland DHM Immunization Certificate will print out with your Day Camp Confirmation Receipt. This Certificate must be completed and returned to staff prior to your child’s participation in the day camp program.

• Are there any health issues?Please answer Yes or No. Participants who have health issues such as allergies or other illness, take medication (prescription or over-the-counter), or use emergency medical devices such as inhalers or Epi-pens should answer Yes. The Health-Medication Form will be printed with your Day Camp Confirmation Receipt at the end of the registration. This form must be completed and returned to staff prior to your child’s participation in the day camp program. If you answer No, you will not need to complete any additional health forms.

• Date of last Tetanus or DPT vaccinationPlease fill-in the month/year (example: 01/2014) when the child last received a Tetanus or DPT vaccination. This is a requirement of the State of Maryland.

When you’ve completed this information once, and if you want to register the child for additional camp sessions during the summer, these fields will automatically populate with your answers.

Once your registration and transaction are complete, the following items will print out for your convenience:• A Day Camp Confirmation Receipt• A Summer Day Camp Authorization Form (This form authorizes who may pick up your child during a camp session, and must be returned to camp staff prior to participation in the program.)• And, depending upon your answers to the prompts, the Health-Medication Form or Maryland DHM Immunization Certificate.
