WINTER/SPRING 2022 PROGRAM GUIDE

January February March April


The McDonough County Special Recreation Association (MCSRA) is a

community therapeutic recreation organization that serves individuals with

disabilities who reside in McDonough County. MCSRA is a legal recreation

cooperative, subject to Section 11-85-14 of the Illinois Municipal Code. Supporting

municipalities include the Macomb Park District, the City of Macomb, and the Village

of Bardolph. It is structured to provide individuals of all ages and ability levels with the opportunity to

enjoy recreational experiences. MCSRA emphasizes recreation, leisure, culture, the environment,

community integration, and family centered activities. Our goal is to provide skills-based programming

to help further develop each individual’s proficiency in specialty areas as well as developing skills for

daily living. One of the aims of the MCSRA is to build a sense of community and support. Through quality

programming such as sporting activities, cooking experiences, travel ventures, outdoor adventures, and

so much more, we provide opportunities for individuals with disabilities to build a social network with

both their peers and caregivers in the McDonough County area.

OUR MISSION

To provide positive, purposeful, and personal recreational experiences for populations with disabilities.

• Early childhood, 10 to 15 minute increments • School age, 10 to 20 minute increments

• Adult, 20 to 30 minute increments

During the assessment period, the MCSRA participants will also need to show the following:

1. Participants can wash their hands independently

or with minimal assistance and/or verbal cue or

prompts.

2. Participants understand not being able to

touch others and keeping distance from others

with verbal cues and prompts.

3. Participants must be able to refrain

from habits that could increase the

spread of illness such as:

• Picking Skin

• Picking nose

• Wiping nose and eyes with hands

• Putting objects in their mouth

4. Participants must allow a visual

health screening upon arrival and

departure. Employees will look for

the following during a visual

health screening:

• No soiled clothes

• No open wounds

• No visual symptoms of illness

5. Participants must be

able to use the

Parents/guardians and participants are responsible

for informing the MCSRA staff of any changes to

address, phone numbers, or medical information.

If a participant will be absent from a program for

any reason, please notify the MCSRA office one

week (five business days) prior to the program date.

If a participant cancels less than five business days

before the program, only a 50% refund will be

issued. If a participant cancels on the day of the

program, no refund will be issued.

Programs may be cancelled due to inclement

weather or low enrollment numbers. When a

program is cancelled for either reason, a credit will

be placed on the participants account to be used

toward future programs

MCSRA provides an approximate 1:4

staff-to-participant ratio. If the participant requires

a closer 1:1 ratio, please indicate the reason on the

registration form.

Although the MCSRA realizes that inappropriate

behavior may occur in programs, the MCSRA

Director retains the right to suspend participation if

hazardous, disruptive, or destructive behavior

persists. Participants may be held liable for

deliberate destruction of equipment or facilities.

When arriving at or departing from a program,

please check in with the staff before you leave or

take the participant. If someone other than the

parent/guardian will be picking a participant up, a

note must be given to an MCSRA staff member. Staff

will not allow a participant to leave with another

person without written notice.

child without the consent of the MCSRA, local law

authorities will be contacted and further action will be

taken.

minutes prior to the program start time or is picked up 15

minutes later than a program end time, appropriate

parties will be charged for the additional staff expense

accrued during that time.

belongings at programs, the MCSRA cannot be held

responsible for lost or stolen property. Participants should

not bring valuables to programs.
