Camp Exploration
Camp Exploration is designed for participants who can engage appropriately in a small group setting (approximately 8 participants with 2 staff). Participants are expected to follow basic rules of safety and interaction, have independence with toileting, feeding and personal care needs, and easily understand and follow directions within their small group.
Program hours are 9:00am-4:00pm. Early drop off is available starting at 8:00am and all participants must be picked up by 5:00pm. Supervised participant-choice activities will be provided for arrival and dismissal hours. Camp fees will be prorated to $120 for the week of June 20-June 24 & July 4-July 8. Activities include indoor and outdoor group games, nature activities, music and movement, arts and crafts, specialists and field trips.
Under normal camp guidelines and operations, the following are examples of how staff and participants will engage at camp.
Behavior: staff will provide positive behavior support, redirection, preferred activities, and use behavior support strategies provided by families. Participants are expected to exhibit appropriate camp behavior, without presenting a safety concern to themselves, other participants or staff. Unsafe behaviors may include but are not limited to: biting, hitting, kicking, pinching, running, spitting, etc.
Feeding: staff will provide verbal and visual prompting, reminders, assist with placement of food, break up food into small pieces, open containers for the participant. Participants should be able to physically feed themselves.
Participation: staff will engage participants through multiple means of instruction, sensory engagement, supported transitions, and program modifications. Participants are expected to stay with their group, follow given/modeled direction, and demonstrate engagement during camp activities, during transitions, and in the community on field trips.
Toileting & Personal Care: staff will provide verbal and visual prompting, assist participant with pull-up/diaper and/or clothing. Participants should be able to clean/wipe themselves with minimal assistance from staff.
Participants needing more support for behavior, feeding, mobility, participation or personal care & toileting must provide their own personal assistant. The City of Raleigh Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department Personal Assistant Policy requires paperwork to be submitted, and signed, from both the service provider and the parent/guardian of the participant for approval. These forms must be submitted no less than 2 weeks prior to the Personal Assistant attending camp. Forms not submitted by the appropriate deadline will not be processed in time and the Personal Assistant may not be authorized to attend camp. Any participant registering with a Personal Assistant session should contact the SRIS Office at 919-996-2147.

All campers must complete our assessment process as a final step in our registration process. To allow time to complete our assessment process, registration for all weeks of Camp Friendly and Camp Exploration will close at least 1 month prior to the first day of camp.
After registration, families will receive additional forms that must be completed and returned as part of our assessment process. Upon receipt of the camper’s forms, the Camp Supervisor will review the information and schedule a follow up interview. Camp Supervisors may determine the most appropriate format to conduct the interview (live in-person, virtual, phone, etc.) based on various factors. Interviews are part of our assessment process and allow us to the opportunity to learn more about the camper while providing a forum where we can provide answers and follow-up to more specific questions. After completing the assessment process, if it is determined by either the family or our staff, that Camp Friendly/Exploration is not suitable for the camper based on our operational guidelines and/or, we will grant a full refund for the weeks in which they are registered.
Unless registration dates do not allow, we will follow the timeline below for our assessment process:
• All camper forms must be received no later than 3 weeks prior to the camper’s first day of camp.
• All interviews must occur at least 2 weeks before the camper’s first day of camp.
PLEASE NOTE: Any paperwork not received or interviews not completed by the appropriate deadline will forfeit the camper’s space at camp, at which time a full refund will be given.
