Capital City Productions Camp Be a part of the 2018 CCP production “Shrek Jr.,” based on the popular animated move Shrek. All campers will sing an audition solo, (or group song for chorus parts only), and all will have a cold reading (you’ll get them when you get to auditions and only have several minutes to prepare). Audition date is May 5th, 1:00 pm – approximately 4:00 pm. Campers will have on-stage and backstage tasks that will bring forth a show in the two week time frame. Actors in lead roles will focus mainly on their lines, solos, dances, and blocking. Chorus and supporting characters will focus on additional tasks that will be required such as, but not limited to: painting props and set; creating props and set pieces; learning blocking, lines, solo or group number songs and dances; and filling in for crew who are instrumental in quick scene changes. Contact education@capitalcityproductions.org with questions.

Pool Policies

Aquatic Facility General Info • • • • • • • •

Pools are open daily except during threatening weather (thunder/ lightning) or when projected high air temperature is 74 degrees or cooler. Certified lifeguards are on duty at all times for your safety. During periods of low attendance, various attractions and/or pools within the complex may close. During periods of extreme heat or high temperatures, staff will take 10 minute safety breaks throughout day to clear pool. Parks and Recreation is not responsible for lost or stolen items. Coin operated lockers are available at each facility. Complimentary lifejackets are available at the admission booth. Diaper changing stations are available in the restrooms. Please use them when changing your child’s diapers. It is the responsibility of the patrons when entering the facility to read and obey all posted signs for safety.

A Word To Parents Our lifeguards are highly trained and skilled. Their job is to assist in making our facilities a safe and enjoyable place to bring the family. However, they are not babysitters. Parents are expected to watch their children and to assist in enforcing the policies for the safety and enjoyment of all patrons. All children 8 YEARS OF AGE AND YOUNGER must be accompanied and supervised by a person 15 years of age or older. Our business is keeping your kids safe!

Diaper Policy

Rules for the Pools • • • • •

•

In an effort to keep our pool free of fecal matter, toddlers are required to wear swim diapers or plastic pants. Swim diapers are the safest barrier between your toddler and the water. These guidelines have been adopted for the health and safety of all who swim at our facilities. If your child has been sick with diarrhea please keep them at home until they are well. You may purchase swim diapers at either pool for a nominal fee or bring your own.

•

Inclement Weather

• •

When inclement weather occurs, aquatic staff will remain at the pools and attempt to re-open the pools as soon as possible.

•

If patrons remain at the pool, and we are unable to re-open after 45 minutes, a pass will be issued for one free future admission with proof of receipt. This policy is in effect until one hour prior to official closing.

•

For pool closing information, call the Parks and Recreation Hotline, (573)634-6485 and press #5.

About Us

Parks & Recreation Foundation

Equal Opportunity

The Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Foundation strives to provide additional resources to leverage taxes, fees and grants to enhance our parks and recreation services. Over the years, civic minded individuals and organizations have maintained a tradition of enhancing the quality of life for their families, friends, and neighbors through generous donations to the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation system.

As a recipient of federal funds from the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Commission and the Jefferson City Department of Parks and Recreation operates programs subject to the nondiscrimination requirements of Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Under Title VI, the U.S. Department of the Interior strictly prohibits discrimination because of race, color, or national origin in its federally assisted programs.

In 1992, the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Foundation was formed to provide continuing leadership and foster the expansion of parks and recreation services in Jefferson City. The Foundation’s goal is to emphasize the value of parks and recreation - both passive and active - not only for individual growth and development, but also for a strong family unit and for making our community a more desirable place to live, work, play and visit. Please consider committing your support to the Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Foundation. Any and all size of gifts to our community are appreciated and contribute to the livability and quality of life of Jefferson City. For more information on how you can make a tax deductible contribution of land, money, or other gifts, contact the Foundation’s Executive Director at 634-6482.

Sponsorships The Parks and Recreation Commission believes that no youth should be denied access to Parks and Recreation programs for financial reasons. The Parks and Recreation Foundation makes recreation sponsorships available to those who otherwise would not be able to afford to participate in organized recreation activities. Those seeking sponsorships will be asked to complete a Recreation Sponsorship Application Form available through the Department of Parks and Recreation. Sponsorships are generally limited to those receiving benefits from public assistance as designated on the application form. Sponsorship funding is limited to $200 per individual per calendar year and is restricted to ongoing programs conducted by Parks and Recreation staff. Specialized programs of short duration conducted by non-staff members (e.g. baseball clinics) are ineligible for sponsorship funding. All application forms requesting funding for youth programs must be signed by the parent/guardian of the prospective participant. Participants/ parents must pay a minimum of 20% of the registration fee for programs for which sponsorship assistance is requested. Questions concerning this service may be directed to Phil Stiles at 6346482.

Photo Policy Frequently, Parks and Recreation staff may videotape or photograph participants enrolled in programs, classes, events, or enjoying park facilities. These photographs are for Parks and Recreation publications, flyers, brochures, program guides, TV programs, or advertisements. All photos and videos are for Parks and Recreation use and become the sole property of the Department.

Any person who believes he or she has been discriminated against in any program or facility of the Jefferson City Department of Parks and Recreation, or desires further information regarding Title VI, should write immediately to: The Office for Equal Opportunity U.S. Department of Interior Office of the Secretary Washington, D.C. 20240

Termination of Participation Any of the following infractions will subject the individual(s) to suspension from attendance at Parks and Recreation programs or facilities for a period to be determined by the Director of Parks and Recreation and prosecution for violation of the City of Jefferson trespassing ordinance: • Any park user, program participant, or spectator, who verbally or physically threatens or who attempts to intimidate or harass a Parks and Recreation employee or another park patron or causes such employee or other park patron to be apprehensive about his/her personal safety; • Any park user, program participant, or spectator, who uses vulgar or inappropriate language in addressing a Parks and Recreation employee or another park patron at a Parks and Recreation program or facility; • Any park user, program participant or spectator, who fails to heed the request of an on-site Parks and Recreation supervisor to vacate park property; • Any park user, program participant, or spectator, who violates any Parks and Recreation Commission rule, regulation, policy, code, expectation and/or guidelines for conduct.

Fragrance Free Policy The Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Commission respectfully requests and encourages all patrons attending or participating in any Parks and Recreation meeting, special event, facility or program remain as fragrance free as possible by not wearing perfume, after shave, scented lotions, fragranced hair products and/or other similar products. Fragranced products can cause persons with some chronic illnesses to suffer additional symptoms.
