We’ve made some changes to our old surf camp to make it even better. Here is what we did. First, we want to show you that you can get out and board right around here. That’s right we’re going Stand Up Paddle (SUP) Boarding. We’ll get you used to standing up, balancing and moving through the water as a base foundation of skills with a few day trips. Then we head down to Wrightsville and Carolina Beach for a few days and nights to stay in cabins. To top it all off we’ll have surf lessons from ‘Surf Camp’ and free time at the beach. The goal of this camp is to build surfing/paddling concepts in both an ocean and flat water environment. Camper will also develop group cohesion, and individual camper responsibility.

To meet this goal, the age of the participant, as of the cut-off date for the program, is required at the time of registration to appropriately place the participant in our programs. The Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department reserves the right to request that the parent/guardian provide a legal document (i.e. birth certificate) verifying the age of the participant, as of August 31. If legal documentation is requested and not provided within 24 hours, the program supervisor may offer the parent/ guardian a transfer to an age appropriate program if available or dismiss the participant from the program.

Behavior Management We utilize and encourage the practice of praise and positive reinforcement as effective methods of behavior management. We believe that when participants receive positive and understanding interactions, they can develop good self-concept, problem-solving abilities, and self-discipline. The City of Raleigh Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources Department supports and practices the following procedures for behavior problems: 1. Initially, participants will be given a quiet reprimand/verbal warning. 2. If behavior persists after verbal warning, a Behavior Action Plan will be implemented to identify specific behaviors and work with the participant and parent/guardian to develop appropriate behavior management solutions. 3. If behavior problems continue after implementation of the Behavior Action Plan, a first Incident Report will be presented to the parent/guardian. 26 4. Additional behavior problems will constitute a second Incident Report presented to the parent/guardian and a possible two (2) full-day suspension from the program may occur (no refunds will be given for the days suspended). The parent/guardian may be requested to pick up the participant within an hour of the initial contact to the parent/guardian. If a parent/guardian does not pick up the participant within an hour, a late fee may be charged. 5. If a behavior problem persists, a third Incident Report will be presented and the participant may be asked to leave the program. A two (2) full day suspension will be issued to the participant while the Incident Reports are being reviewed. 6. For severe offenses, such as but not limited to: fighting/ hitting, theft, vandalism, bullying, possession of weapons or drugs, severe verbal threats, sexual misconduct, or any other safety related behavior, the participant may be suspended or dismissed from the program immediately. Any of the above mentioned behaviors may result in immediate suspension or expulsion from program. 7. Participants will not be disciplined in camp for behavior that occurred outside of camp hours, even at parental requests. 8. Participation in camp activities during program hours is required.
