Q: Can I still use ParkPASS (for Montgomery Parks) or RecWeb (for the Recreation Department)?

A: Nope. ActiveMONTGOMERY.org replaces both of

these. Now there's one system and one website for all your Recreation Department and Montgomery Parks activity registrations, rentals and memberships.

Q: What credit cards can I use online?

A: You can use your Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover cards on ActiveMONTGOMERY.

Q: What will ActiveMONTGOMERY charges look like on my credit card statement?

A: If you used a credit card to register for a course,

buy something at a facility, book a facility, or purchase a membership with Montgomery Parks or the Recreation Department on or after August 17, 2015, here’s what you’ll see on your credit card statement: “ACT*Regist” or “ACT*ACTIVE MONTGOMERY”

Q: Can I keep a credit card number on file?

A: Yes, you can store a credit card number online with ActiveMONTGOMERY. The number is not visible to anyone but you.

Q: Can I withdraw from a camp online?

A: Yes! You may withdraw online from a camp and get

a full refund with no withdrawal fee as long as you withdraw on ActiveMONTGOMERY.org at least two weeks before the camp begins. Please see page 68 in this Summer Camp Guide for more information.

Refunds and withdrawal policies are different for regular (non-camp) activities.

Q: What’s with the “WISH LIST”?

A: If you see an upcoming class or program that

looks interesting, but you’re not sure if it works with your schedule, add it to your ActiveMONTGOMERY “Wish List.” When you log back in, you can register for the class, or delete it from the list. Adding a class to your wish list does not register you for the class.

If you haven’t registered for a free ActiveMONTGOMERY account, why not do it today?

BOOKS FOR COOKS TINY CHEFS

CHOPPED

Ages 5 - 8: Tiny Chefs will be making connections between the world of cooking and the world of print! For the younger Tiny Chefs set, we will relate cooking concepts and recipes with themes and characters drawn from selected children's books. Picture reading a selection from Paddington Bear followed by a scone making session. Or Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, paired with a spaghetti and meatballs party!

Instructor: Tiny Chefs

Ages 5 - 11: Never have food challenge reality shows been so popular and Chopped! is a favorite here at Tiny and Gourmet Chefs!

We like it so much we decided to base a whole week long camp on the concept. Our version has the added twist of focusing on different cuisines every day of camp. So, each day the Tiny and Gourmet Chef campers will be presented with a basket with 3 or 4 ingredients, which reflect these different cuisines French, Italian, Mexican, Asian and All-American. Using those ingredients and working within those cuisines, they will challenge themselves to make mouthwatering specialties, traditional favorites and explore new ingredients, tastes and combinations.

We learn about glass sculpture and Dale Chihuly who creates masterpieces with glass and color.

We'll make both a gigantic sculpture and small sculptures using recycled products. We'll be making murals, geometric sculptures and much more! We're not a teeny, tiny bit shy about saying that this camp promises big, gigantic rewarding fun! $20 dollar material fee due the first day to instructor.

Ages 6 - 12: Fun filled days await our students as we explore ocean life as they learn to draw and color with pastels. We will create detailed, pastel compositions on each day, focusing on a different ocean-themed subject. We will draw eye catching sea stars along the shoreline and a pair of vibrant clown fish. We will illustrate a sea turtle with bold patterns, a blue crab and a wondrous scene of jellyfish. Our instruction will bring remarkable results! You will want to head to the frame shop with your child's finished pastel pieces. These pastel drawings will reward students with a great sense of pride and accomplishment. In addition to pastel drawings, the students will learn some cartooning techniques while exploring the blue sea!

Ages 6 - 12: Join Young Rembrandts as we travel to the farthest reaches of the galaxy and the deepest depths of the ocean in this all day camp. In the morning, futuristic scenes of other worldly adventures highlight the spectacular drawings our students will produce. In the afternoon, they explore ocean life as they learn to draw and color with pastels and learn some cartooning techniques. Get ready for a fun filled week of exploration!

SUMMER LEADERSHIP CHALLENGE (SLC) At least 13 but less than 16: Summer Leadership Challenge (SLC) is a leadership development program that encourages exploration, independence, and personal growth. Young people participate in interactive workshops that prepare them for leadership roles and employment. Our goal is to empower participants to effect positive changes within themselves and within their community. Young people will learn about employment opportunities they can pursue and become competent in leading others in activities. Each session concludes with participants coordinating and implementing a capstone project benefiting the local community. In addition to developing useful skills, participants will earn service learning hours and receive individual evaluations. At Summer Leadership Challenge, young people will establish lasting friendships, develop a sense of responsibility, learn to work more effectively in groups, build accountability, and gain the confidence to solve problems independently. You may only register for one (1) session of SLC. Participants may earn up to 35 SSL hours for the session. No transportation is available.

Program will not meet on Monday, July 4th.

Golf Summer Camps

Golf & So Much More!

For kids who want to try golf but don’t want to spend all day at it, this great combo camp will keep them happy and active all day! With the help of a Montgomery County Golf Academy instructor, all campers will practice putting, chipping, driving, and using irons and woods at the Driving Range (M-Th, 9am-Noon). On Friday, everyone will play 9 holes of golf at a nearby course, then full-day campers will head back for a final fun group activity. Afternoons for full-day campers will be filled with "so much more": tennis, basketball, kick ball, mini-golf and water fun at South Germantown Splash Playground. Don’t want "so much more"?

Sign up for half-day camp and concentrate on golf!

With the help of a Montgomery County Golf Academy instructor, campers will practice putting, chipping, driving and using irons and woods Monday-Thursday at the Driving Range. On Friday, they’ll compete in a small tournament at a nearby golf course. It’ll be a blast for juniors, and a great way to develop the skills needed to start playing golf with the family.

Lacrosse & Field Sports Camp Give your kids the opportunity to learn and play lacrosse and other fields sports in one fun-filled camp. Using games, personal instruction, and drills, we'll teach beginning and intermediate level players the basics, and help them improve their skills. We’ll focus on lacrosse fundamentals, including stick skills (throwing, cradling, scooping, and shooting), and offensive and defensive positioning. In the afternoons, we’ll play a variety of field sports such as flag football, wiffleball, kickball, dodgeball, and much more. Campers will need to bring their own lacrosse helmet, stick, gloves, cup or pelvic protector, and tennis shoes or cleats. Drop off and pick-up campers at Wheaton Sports Pavilion (take the Orebaugh entrance into the park—the facility is just down the hill from Wheaton Ice Arena).

Tennis & Tennis Combo Camps Tennis & So Much More Camp!

School’s out, and it’s time to play! During the tennis part of camp, kids with little or no tennis experience will play with the smaller rackets and softer balls of our “10 and Under Tennis” classes which will help them connect with the ball.

They will really enjoy themselves while they learn the basic strokes and rules of tennis. We’ll also do some fun tennis drills and games that will teach moves and skills to use on the court. Older and more experienced players will be placed together to assure they are getting a good challenge with their friends and peers. When we’re not playing tennis, we’ll take a hike on one of the great trails in Wheaton Regional Park, visit Brookside Nature Center and explore nature, and cool off at the South Germantown Splash Playground on Tuesdays. It’ll be great fun, great exercise, and never a dull moment!

Sunscreen and hats highly recommended, and a swimsuit for splashing.

Please bring a non-perishable lunch and water bottle each day! Drop off and pick up campers at Wheaton Indoor Tennis (11715 Orebaugh Ave., Wheaton, MD 20902).
