17 Transfers We recognize that some campers may need to change their enrollment, due to scheduling conflicts. Transfer requests will be granted only if the desired program has openings. Waiting Lists If the camp you want is full, we encourage you to place your child on a waiting list (one per child per session). The Park District will call you if space becomes available in the program and will require payment within 24 hours of notification to confirm enrollment. Camp Locations Many camp programs are held at area schools. Camp locations will be announced and listed at nbparks.org after May 1. Group Formation Camp groups are formed by age/grade and school. We try to keep an even number of boys and girls. Friendship requests are not available. Children in the same camp will have the opportunity to hang out with their friends in other groups during the day. 17 Hot Lunch Program Families in most programs have the option of ordering lunches for campers. In early May, parents will receive a camp packet with details about the program, menu choices and ordering instructions. The hot lunch provider information also will be available in the Parent Handbook. Summer Warm-Up, Hockey Training Academy, Awesome August and Zombie Survival Camp are not included in the hot lunch program, due to shorter days and changing schedules. Text Message Alerts The Park District will communicate urgent information to parents via text messaging. Parents are encouraged to provide a cell phone number on the Camper Information Form. This number will be used to communicate important last-minute information, such as late buses or inclement weather. More information will be available in the Parent Handbook and reviewed at Parent Orientation. Not all programs use text messaging.

18 Are You Covered? The Park District does not carry medical or accident insurance for program participants; the cost would make program fees prohibitive. Please review your personal health insurance plan to be sure you and your family have proper coverage. The absence of coverage does not make the Park District automatically responsible for payment of medical expenses. In addition, certain higher-risk activities require a waiver, which must be signed before the first session. 18 NSSRA Inclusion Services The Northbrook Park District partners with the Northern Suburban Special Recreation Association (NSSRA) to offer recreation programs and services to residents of all abilities. NSSRA support staff is available to work alongside program participants, assisting with special needs and behavior. Participants requesting support for the 2017 summer should check the ADA box on the Registration Form. If you are registering online, contact one of our offices to discuss your camper s needs and request additional support. If you have questions about NSSRA support or have not been contacted about support one month prior to the start of your program, give us a call.
