About This Activity
Description
PLEASE NOTE: ONLY students that are NOT on an IEP/504/DCAP CAN REGISTER HERE. In fairness to the needs of all of our community’s children, IF YOU ENROLL IN THE INCORRECT SESSION, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR SPOT COMPLETELY.
During this water sports camp, athletes will build skills in adaptive windsurfing, Hawaiian outrigger canoeing, and stand-up paddling. Sailing will be included one of the weeks, TBD. This camp will provide specialized instructors and equipment from AccesSport America. Participating students can be non-ambulatory, non-verbal and do not need to know how to swim. If the weather is simply intolerable, we will run a fun games clinic during that session time.
This is an integrated program. In order to assure full access to equipment and safety for all participants, you must follow the registration guidelines regarding the allocated amount of IEP/504/DCAP slots. If the slots in the appropriate session are filled, please place your child's name on the wait list, so we can contact you. Slots are reserved for children receiving special education services (on an IEP, 504 or DCAP plan) until June 1. After June 1st, it is a first come, first serve basis for registration.
No refunds issued 2 weeks prior to start of all programs due to staffing requirements. If you are 10 minutes or more late to your session, your child may lose the chance to go out on the equipment that day if the staff have already left the dock area. Please read waiver for all important policies.
CORSE provides recreation programs for ALL children, those with and without special needs who would prefer a less competitive atmosphere. Our programs are highly motivating within a structured setting to build skills in a particular physical and social activity while having fun! This more relaxed setting, along with a low student to staff ratio (3 to 1), offers the perfect opportunity for children with moderate special needs to participate in community programs alongside their friends and peers. For all CORSE-sponsored programs through Scituate Recreation: Each program has a 3:1 (student to staff) ratio, unless otherwise designated. This 3:1 student to staff ratio allows for most children with and without special needs to successfully access our classes independently, if the student can understand directions, be able to request assistance and have basic verbal skills to communicate with peers. If your child needs access to medications, please be aware that there is no nurse on-site. Parents are responsible for assuring the appropriate information is provided to the instructors. Instructors cannot dispense medication or perform testing. All staff, excluding volunteers, are certified in CPR. If there is an emergency, 911 will be called. If a parent/guardian believes that a program is not accessible to their child without reasonable accommodations and wants more information, please contact the Scituate Recreation Department. If you register your child within 10 days of the program start date, your child's start date may be delayed one week to ensure proper staffing and appropriate reasonable accommodations.
