Paperwork

There is a packet of paperwork that will need to be filled out for each child prior to them starting camp. There are forms in that

packet that will need to be filled out by the child’s doctor. It is very important these are filled out fully and correctly. All paperwork must

be submitted to camp director prior to the first day of camp. Children will not be permitted to camp without proper paperwork. If

your child requires medicine during the day of camp there will be additional paperwork needed to be filled out. Please contact camp

The Arena Club Discipline Policy

The goal of our r Camp is to provide a fun and safe environment for your child to do independent learning, play and have an incredible day. Periodically, discipline problems arise and must be addressed. Unfortunately, some problems escalate to a level that requires discipline or even expulsion. The following outlines are our policies and courses of action. We employ a “three strikes” discipline policy

Strike 1

• If a staff member identifies an incident or consistent behavioral problem, the incidentwill be brought to the camp director.

• The first offense will result in a consultation with the camp director. The director willinform a parent at pick-up or by telephone if need be.

• A first strike may result in quiet time or an elimination of certain camp privileges oractivities for that particular day.

Strike 2

• If an additional; incident or persistent poor behavior continues, the incidents will bebrought to the camp director’s attention.

• The second offense will result in a consultation with the camp director. A writtenincident report will be taken and noted in the child’s file and the situation will bediscussed with a parent or guardian.

• A second strike will result in quiet time and/or elimination of certain camp privileges oractivities for the day or week if need be.

Strike 3

• In the event that an additional incident or poor behavior continues, the camp directorwill be notified and then a parent will be called immediately.

• The third offense can result in expulsion from camp.• In event of an expulsion, there will be no refund of monies.

The following are examples of behavior that are considered poor and justify disciplinary action. This does not include all possible offenses. The camp management will use their best judgment in determining offenses.

• Consistently ignoring counselor directions or instructions.• Outbursts or excessive anger.• Improper pool behavior• Deliberate tripping, shoving, or aggressive behavior during an activity• Any unsafe behavior to self or other children• Constant arguing with counselors or other children• Foul or abusive language• Pushing, shoving, or spitting• Fighting- (depending on the severity of the situation, fighting can lead directly to immediate

expulsion from the program)If a camper behaves in a way management feels is completely unacceptable to the camp guidelines, The Arena Club reserves the right to expel a camper immediately without utilizing the strike policy.
