25YEARS

AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACTThe ADA was the world's �rst comprehensive declaration of equality for people with

disabilities. The ADA Anniversary is a time that we can re�ect positively on a law that has

made a great impact on the lives of people with disabilities and our country over the past

25 years. The message is powerful because it clearly states that the law is intended “to

assure equality of opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic

self-suf�ciency for individuals with disabilities.

ON THE COVEREvery once in a while we capture a moment that depicts the way camp feels. As our photographer snapped the first photo of just a few campers, several campers jumped in to “photo bomb” the picture. In a matter of seconds most of camp had crammed together to be in the picture. The smiles on our camper’s faces are the reason we come back summer after summer; to make memories that last a lifetime.

Swim Lesson Progression Chart

Helpful Hints for Swim Lessons

1. It is recommended that children repeat the last level they completed the previous summer .

2. Most children remain in the same level for two or more sessions .

3. If unsure of which level your child is in, choose the level you know they can do the skills in (refer to the class descriptions) or we offer free swim evaluations during any of our recreational swimming times .

4. Please have a second and third choice ready when registering, as classes fill up quickly.

5. Your child will not be moved to a different level or class if registered incorrectly . You may be asked to leave the class without a refund for selecting the wrong class .

6. Remember that both Arroyo and Manor pools offer swim lessons, so if a class is full at one pool, check the other facility .

7. Please make sure your child has a swim suit, towel and plenty of sun block! For children in diapers, swim diapers must be worn in the pool to help protect against waterborne illnesses . Goggles and swim caps can be worn during classes (no nose plugs or full face masks).

8. Be on time or early to class!

9. Classes will be cancelled when severe weather conditions (lightning, hail, etc.) are in the area. Staff will follow local weather reports for the latest conditions and will notify you if class is cancelled . Otherwise, classes will be conducted rain or shine . In the event of severe weather and classes are cancelled you will be given a credit for the missed class unless the Aquatics Staff can provide a make-up date .

10. If you miss the last day of lessons, any unclaimed report cards can be picked-up on site at the pool’s cashier office.

• Be respectful of the feelings and properties of others• Not interfere with the learning of other participants• Follow instructions and rules as stated by your

instructor or leader• Not verbally or physically harm another person or

property• Use appropriate language

Consequences for misbehavior are usually progressive and reflect the severity of the unacceptable behavior. Listed below is a progression of discipline. Please note that discipline may not be sequential and one severe act could lead to dismissal from our programs.

REASONABLE ACCOMMODATIONSParticipants should contact the Inclusive Recreation Coordinator, Jamie Elliott, 3 weeks prior to the start of class to discuss individual needs. The City will make all reasonable modifications to policies and procedures to ensure that people with disabilities have an equal opportunity to access all City programs, services, and activities. The City will not impose unnecessary eligibility standards or rules that deny individuals with disabilities the opportunity to participate in services, programs or activities. Jamie can be reached at (530) 757-5694.

FAIR SHARE POLICY (NON-RESIDENT FEES)A non-resident fee will be charged for all youth living outside of the Davis Joint Unified School District boundaries and all adults living outside the Davis city limits. Generally the non-resident fee is 10%, but some activities may have a lower fee based upon nature of the activity.

WAITING LISTSOnce an activity is full, a waitlist will begin. If a space opens in the activity, registration staff will contact individuals on the waitlist. Be sure your email address is up to date, as email is our primary method of contact. Participants cannot be on a waiting list and enrolled in a class of the same type for the same period of time. Any participant enrolled in an activity and on a waitlist for the same time period will be removed from the waitlist.
