All individuals using the Kenosha YMCA facility are expected to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the YMCA Core Values of CARING, HONESTY, RESPECT and RESPONSIBILITY.

KENOSHA YMCA, 7101 53rd Street Kenosha WI 53144

KUENY AQUATIC CENTER POLICIES LIFEGUARDS AND ADULT SUPERVISION

Our aquatic staff of American Red Cross certified lifeguards strives to maintain the highest standards possible. The goal is to provide patrons with a safe, clean atmosphere in which families can enjoy aquatic fitness and recreation. The purpose of the aquatic staff is not to supervise your child, but to ensure the safety of all facility patrons by preventing and responding to emergencies. Therefore, parents are expected to closely supervise their children and assist in enforcing the policies for the safety and enjoyment of all patrons.

• Direct Supervision: an adult (18+) is required to be in a swimsuit and in the water with the child at all times; unless the child is participating in a Y supervised program.

• Ages 6 and under: Require Direct Supervision.

• Ages 7-9: Require Direct Supervision unless the child can pass the deep end swim test; however an adult must remain on the pool deck.

• Ages 10-17: Are subject to the deep end swim test at the lifeguard’s discretion. An adult does not have to remain in the pool area.

The deep-end swim test in the lap pool is… Jump in and level off before beginning to swim, then swim to the lifeguard chair in the middle of the pool using a front paddling stroke, tread at that spot for 15 seconds, swim to the end, and then float at the start for 15 seconds, without assistance.

The deep-end swim test in the instructional pool is… Jump in and level off before beginning to swim, then swim to the lifeguard chair in the middle of the pool using a front paddling stroke, tread at that spot for 15 seconds, swim back to the start, and then float at the start for 15 seconds, without assistance.

PROPER SWIMSUIT ATTIRE IS REQUIRED

In the interest of public health and safety, and in compliance with all local and state laws, patrons need to wear appropriate, clean swimwear and shower prior to entering the pools. Guardians must also be in proper swimsuit attire, so that if necessary, they can enter the pool to assist the patrons for whom they are responsible.

Appropriate swimsuit attire is defined as clothing specifically designed for use in the water. They are designed to be quick drying and are generally made from smooth, nylon material.

Examples of appropriate swimwear include: swimsuits with a lining, rash guard shirts, board shorts, and swim trunks with an affixed/sewn inner lining. Some examples of inappropriate attire include (but are not limited to) basketball shorts, underwear and/ or boxer shorts, sports bras, cotton clothing items of any kind, and lifeguard gear (due to liability issues). Inappropriate attire can damage our pumps and off-set our chemical levels.

FLOTATION DEVICES AND TOYS

At this time, flotation devices and pool toys are welcome at our aquatic facility under the following guidelines: • Children under the age of 10 may only use flotation devices with an adult or guardian in the water, supervising the child.

• Any flotation device or pool toy must be clean and free of any debris (i.e. sand & beach water residue) • Flotation devices and/or pool toys will be allowed at the lifeguard’s discretion.

• Water wings are strongly discouraged for use as flotation devices. The Y recommends only US Coast Guard approved flotation devices.

MIRACLE LEAGUE

WHAT IS THE MIRACLE LEAGUE?

The Miracle League is a baseball program for kids ages 3-19, with physical and developmental disabilities. The program offers these special kids the opportunity to break through the perceived boundaries of their disabilities, while making new and lasting friendships and having fun! Games are played on the ROTARY MIRACLE FIELD our customdesigned field, with a cushioned synthetic turf surface, the field accommodates wheelchairs and other walking assistance devices. Depending on ability, players hit from a tee or a pitched ball. Each player is paired with an able bodied “volunteer buddy” to assist with batting, base-running and fielding.

YOU CAN HELP...BE A VOLUNTEER BUDDY Children with special needs are not the only ones who benefit from this league! Through the “volunteer buddies” program, able-bodied members of the community will be partnered with players to provide assistance, encouragement and friendship. Individuals interested in becoming a volunteer buddy should complete a Y volunteer application; available at the YMCA Member Service Desk. *Please note: A background check is required for all YMCA volunteers over 18.

A child will not move to the next level until he/she has successfully demonstrated the skills required in their current level. Please remember that even though your child may not have advanced to the next level, instructors will individualize within each class, keeping all children challenged. What can you do as a parent? Don’t compare children; each child will progress at a pace that’s right for them.

Always be understanding and encouraging. Your child can practice their skills at home, blowing bubbles during bath time or using “big arms” while watching television. Ask their instructor for additional skills they can work on at home.

SPRING I: FEBRUARY 27 - APRIL 30, 2017 www.kenoshaymca.org

At the YMCA we practice a holistic approach to sports, with an emphasis on positive physical, mental, and spiritual development. We believe that there is too much emphasis on winning at all costs and on special recognition for sporting ability.

Our program holds other values that are important: • Developing self-confidence, self-respect, and an appreciation of your own worth as an individual.

• Developing a commitment for daily living based on values such as Caring, Honesty, Respect, and Responsibility.

• Growing as a responsible member of the family and as a citizen of the community.

• Appreciating that health of mind and body is a sacred gift and that physical fitness and mental well being are conditions to be achieved and maintained.

• Recognizing the worth of all people and working for inter-group understanding.

• Developing the capacity for leadership and using it responsibly in groups and community life.

To be ready for a competitive team, the swimmer must be able to complete 25 yards each of Freestyle and Backstroke, without stopping. They will also need to display a general knowledge of Breaststroke and Butterfly.

BEGINNER Introduction to Competitive Swimming includes explanation of procedures, rules and legalities of strokes.

TOGETHER WE CAN BUILD A BETTER US The Miracle League offers children the opportunity to break through the perceived boundaries of their disabilities, and be a valued member of a team.

John has been part of the Miracle League since the beginning. Due to his disabilities, his communication skills are limited, but his smile says it all! John never lets mom forget it’s Miracle League night. Everyone knows Johns position is shortstop; he loves to field the ball and throw them back into the pitcher at the end of the night. Over the years, his batting and fielding skills have improved, and mom says being able to come to Miracle League also has had a positive effect on his mood and behavior at home.

Since inception, the Kenosha Miracle League has served 462 children, like John, giving them the opportunity to learn to play ball, develop friendships and, most importantly, have fun!

We believe that a community is stronger when all children have the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. This is just one program example that the Y has to offer.
