Camp Staff

The SRACLC Day Camp staff is composed of recreation professionals, educators, teacher’s aides, college students studying related fields and high school students. Each site has a Supervisor who oversees the day-to-day operations of camp with staff who are trained and/or certified in First Aid and CPR. The average camper to counselor ratio is 2.5:1 with 1:1 when deemed necessary for safe and successful participation.

Behavior Expectations

SRACLC encourages and promotes the concept of fun for everyone. However, certain rules have been established to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all people involved.

 Examples of unsafe behavior include:

1. The camper is endangering the safety of other campers, counselors or self, by demonstrating any of the following behaviors: hitting, kicking, biting, spitting. And/or

2. Destroying property of SRACLC or other cooperating agencies.

In the event either of the above occurs, the following procedures will be taken as a means to develop a successful behavior management program.

1st offense: Parents called in regards to situation, camper removed from camp, meeting set up with Camp Coordinator, parents and SRACLC Administrator. Reasonable accommodations will be addressed.

2nd Offense: Parents called, camper removed from camp, camper suspended from camp. Reasonable accommodations made will be reviewed.
