<strong>NISRA</strong>’s staff dedicate themselves to providing<br />
fun, skill-building, life-enriching programs that<br />
fulfi ll our mission. We strongly believe that 5 core<br />
values defi ne who we are & what you can expect<br />
from us: Fun, Professional, Compassionate,<br />
Trustworthy, and Innovative. If at any time you<br />
feel that <strong>NISRA</strong> or its staff have not lived up to<br />
these values, please contact Brian Shahinian,<br />
Executive Director, at 815-459-0737.<br />
Satisfaction Guaranteed<br />
One of our goals is to provide you with the<br />
highest quality recreation programs and services<br />
possible. If you are not satisfi ed with a program,<br />
please contact the <strong>NISRA</strong> offi ce no later than the<br />
mid-point of the camp session so that we may<br />
resolve the situation. Resolutions may include a<br />
partial or full refund of your camp fee.<br />
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)<br />
<strong>NISRA</strong> will comply with the ADA, which prohibits<br />
discrimination in the provision of services, programs<br />
or facilities to individuals with disabilities. <strong>NISRA</strong><br />
works closely with its member park districts and<br />
recreation departments to provide information<br />
on program inclusion, facility accessibility and<br />
communication devices. <strong>NISRA</strong> will make reasonable<br />
accomodations in recreation programs to enable<br />
participation by an individual with a disability who<br />
meets essential eligibility requirements for that<br />
recreation program. If you have questions about<br />
<strong>NISRA</strong> or the ADA, or believe that you have been<br />
unfairly discriminated against by <strong>NISRA</strong>, please call<br />
Brian Shahinian at (815) 459-0737.
<strong>NISRA</strong>’s <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Camps</strong>...<br />
...laughter, learning, friendship, choices & FUN!<br />
<strong>NISRA</strong>’s Camp Staff<br />
<strong>NISRA</strong> camps are a great place to experience games,<br />
storytelling, sports, arts & crafts, singing, skits, and<br />
swimming this summer. Our camps have helped children<br />
grow in self-esteem, make friends, experience new places,<br />
learn games & songs, and develop physical skills. <strong>NISRA</strong><br />
camps are not an extension of the special education<br />
curriculum, however many children retain concepts from the<br />
school year through the summer months.<br />
A Typical Camp Day...<br />
Here’s a sample schedule for a typical camp day<br />
at our full day camps:<br />
9:00 Arrive, get organized, group activity<br />
9:15 Arts & Crafts<br />
10:00 Music & Dancing<br />
10:30 Games & Sports (outdoor & indoor)<br />
11:45 Clean up before lunch<br />
12:00 Lunch & relaxation time<br />
12:45 Get ready for swimming<br />
1:00 Swimming*<br />
2:30 Change & gather things to go home<br />
*On non-swimming days, staff will plan alternate<br />
activities.<br />
Staff are selected based upon their previous recreation<br />
experiences, ability to teach and adapt activities, and<br />
enthusiasm for working with children & young adults with<br />
disabilities. Staff at the camps include high school students,<br />
and college students & college graduates in the fi elds of<br />
therapeutic recreation, special education, adapted physical<br />
education, and others. A variety of background checks are<br />
completed on all <strong>NISRA</strong> employees.<br />
Camp staff and volunteers attend 10-12 hours of<br />
orientation & training. The orientation covers general<br />
information about disabilities, adapting activities, behavior<br />
management, fi rst aid and emergency procedures, and a<br />
thorough review of the <strong>NISRA</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> Day Camp Policy &<br />
Procedure Manual. Specialized training is conducted on an<br />
as-needed basis.<br />
Behavior Expectations. Although <strong>NISRA</strong> recognizes<br />
that many campers have special behavioral<br />
challenges, guidelines have been established to<br />
ensure safety and enjoyment of all campers. The<br />
Behavior Code of Conduct expects summer day<br />
campers to:<br />
1) Show respect to all campers and counselors, and take<br />
direction from counselors.<br />
2) Refrain from using abusive or foul language.<br />
3) Refrain from causing bodily harm to self, other campers,<br />
and counselors.<br />
4) Show respect for equipment, supplies, and facilities.<br />
A positive approach will be used regarding discipline. <strong>NISRA</strong><br />
will work closely with parents/guardians to develop behavior<br />
management plans. If inappropriate, disruptive or destructive<br />
behavior occurs, a prompt resolution will be sought. <strong>NISRA</strong><br />
reserves the right to suspend or dismiss any camper whose<br />
behavior endangers the safety of him/herself or others.<br />

Inclusion<br />
<strong>NISRA</strong> and its member districts believe that individuals<br />
should participate at their highest ability level in<br />
recreation programs. For some, that may be <strong>NISRA</strong><br />
day camps, for others a park district or recreation<br />
department program. <strong>NISRA</strong> staff provide assistance<br />
with inclusion to member district staff in the form of<br />
adapted equipment, training, program modifi cations<br />
and securing sign language assistance. Call Courtney<br />
at <strong>NISRA</strong> with questions about inclusion or contact your<br />
home district to register for a program.

HOW TO REGISTER<br />
Registration Procedure<br />
1. Complete front and back sides of the registration forms. The<br />
forms provide necessary medical and personal<br />
information to assist the day camp counselors. If the forms are<br />
not complete, the registration will not be processed and they<br />
will be returned to you.<br />
2. Full payment must be made by the start of camp. Save<br />
$25 by registering and paying for a 7 week camp fee IN<br />
FULL by April 13th! No camper will be allowed to attend<br />
camp until the entire fee has been paid. Staff will notify van<br />
drivers and Site Directors of those who will not be attending<br />
due to incomplete payment.<br />
3. Registration is processed on a fi rst-come, fi rst-serve basis. If<br />
camp reaches maximum capacity, a waiting list will be started,<br />
and those on the list will be notifi ed.<br />
4. Those living within one of <strong>NISRA</strong>’s 13 member districts are<br />
considered “residents” and pay the resident fee. Out-of-district<br />
participants are charged a non-resident fee and registration is<br />
not processed until after residents. Each camp description lists<br />
the fees for residents and non-residents as R/NR.<br />
Township Information<br />
We ask for your township on the registration form because<br />
area townships give grants to <strong>NISRA</strong>. If you are unsure of<br />
your township, call the township closest to your residence.<br />
