The Emerald Bay Recreation Department is excited 

for another amazing summer in the bay!! We have been 

working hard to continue to create the best possible 

summer camp program the bay has seen. Like last year, 

we are excited to offer the addition of full time Art, Science, 

and Sports specialists that will focus on creating fun and 

exciting games and projects in their specialty. In addition, 

we have worked hard to keep growing and building 

our summer beach camp in the afternoons. We hope 

you will choose to join us for what promises to be the best 

summer in Emerald yet!! 

Meet Heather Deon, our new Camp Director! 

TINY TOTS 

Children Ages 3 and Under 

With the action and excitement of the Main Gate 

project underway, the Summer of 2016 Tiny Tot program 

will be shifting gears and relocating to a new area in 

Emerald Bay. Every morning, Tiny Tot participants will 

meet in the Canyon Park, located on the pool road. With 

the canyon as their home base, Tiny Tot kids will be able 

to participate in all of the same programs and activities 

they have been able to enjoy in the past, but away from 

the construction associated with the Main Gate project. 

Aside from avoiding the construction, the true benefit 

of this change is that Tiny Tot participants will have the 

chance to learn and grow, away from our older campers. 

This will ensure all programming is 100% age-appropriate 

and distraction free. 

Like last summer, the Tiny Tots summer program will 

include the addition of educational activities, such as 

counting games and letter of the day activities, as well as 

a daily trip to the firehouse so that snack time, story time, 

and learning time can be done in a more classroomlike 

setting. In addition, the new Tiny Tots will include 

organized weekly swim programs as part of camp. These 

changes, along with many others, will ensure that your 

kids will not only be well cared for, but they will leave 

every session of Tiny Tots with a greater understanding of 

structure as well as important educational lessons. 

SPECIAL NOTE – Parents, please send Tiny Tots with 

an extra change of clothes, swimwear and towel, and 

lunch and snacks. Wednesday: Wet Day – Send kids with 

bathing suit and towel.

YOUR COMMUNITY NEEDS YOU!! 

VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS 

Station 11 is a Reserve Fire Station, meaning 

that it is completely staffed by volunteers from 

the community. We are always interested in 

meeting residents of Emerald Bay and the 

surrounding areas who are interested in serving 

their community by becoming a volunteer fire 

fighter. Volunteers are trained like professionals, 

and learn to use the equipment and respond to emergency medical and 

firefighting situations just like a pro. The next Reserve Fire Fighter Academy for 

Orange County Fire Authority will begin sometime this summer. If you have 

any questions or would like more information about joining our station, please 

call (949)494-6933 or visit www.ocfa.org.

edition of The Tide newsletter.
