WHAT
IS THE R.V.S.R.A.?
The R.V.S.R.A. is an association formed by member
agencies to provide community-based Therapeutic
Recreation to individuals with disabilities or special needs.
Member agencies provide the primary source of operational
revenue through a property tax levy available to the park
districts who have entered into a cooperative agreement.

that have to be made. Prior to all programs, we mail
reminders. Look for these to come in your mail. If you

we would appreciate a phone call. Our office and cell

We want the participants in our programs to be aware, in advance, that when they participant in an activity including high risk

injury which each participant must assume.

GENERAL INFORMATION
RVSRA is committed to conducting its recreation
programs and activities in a safe manner and holds the
safety of participants in high regard. RVSRA continually
strives to reduce such risks and insists that all
participants follow safety rules and instructions that are
designed to protect the participants’ safety. However,
participants and parents/guardians of minors registering
for the RVSRA programs/activities must recognize
that there is an inherent risk of injury when choosing
to participate in recreational activities/programs. You
are solely responsible for determining if you or your
minor child/ward are physically fit and/or skilled for the
activities contemplated by this agreement. It is always
advisable, especially if the participant is pregnant,
disabled in any way, or recently suffered illness, injury,
or impairment, to consult a physician before undertaking
any physical activity.
When you receive your brochure, fill out the registration
information page and return to the office as soon as
you can. A variety of programs have limits for different
reasons, so they will fill up quickly. So don’t wait!
10 Date
When arriving at a program for the first time, it
is important to check in with one of our Special
Recreation staff. Some of our programs will take
place off sight and it is crucial that our staff know
that a participant is in attendance.
We require that an “Annual Information Sheet” be filled
out for all participants that attend our programs. This
information is pertinent for our staff to understand
behavior and physical needs.
Participant
Risk Information
Recreational activities/programs are intended to
challenge and engage the physical, mental and
emotional resources of each participant. Despite
careful and proper preparation, instruction, medical
advice, conditioning and equipment, there is still
a risk of serious injury when participating in any
recreational activities/program. Understandably,
not all hazards and dangers can be foreseen.
Depending on the particular activity, participants must
understand that certain risks, dangers and injuries
exist. In this regard, it must be recognized that it is
impossible for RVSRA to guarantee absolute safety.
RIVER VALLEY
BEHAVIOR
POLICY
RVSRA promotes the concept that recreation and
leisure activities add to the quality of life. However,
certain rules are necessary to ensure everyone’s
safety and enjoyment.
RVSRA participants are expected to exhibit
appropriate behavior at all times. Listed below are
examples of some inappropriate behavior that may
need to be addressed:
• Making loud noises in particular settings where
quiet is expected.
• Inability to sit quietly in theaters, concerts, etc.
• Showing lack of respect for other participants/
patrons/SRA staff at activities.
• Running in crowded areas or bolting from the
group can cause disruption or be a significant
safety problem.
DISCIPLINE
A caring, positive approach will be used regarding
discipline. RVSRA reserves the right to dismiss a
participant. Each situation will be evaluated on its
own merit.
APPEARANCE
RVSRA requires that our participants will exhibit a clean
personal appearance. Listed below are examples of
some inappropriate personal appearances that may
need to be addressed:
• Soiled and wet clothing.
• Bowel/bladder problems upon arrival at programs.
• Unclean hair, face, teeth, hands, nails, etc.
• Inappropriate attire for program participation (i.e. no
tennis shoes, tight fitting clothes, loose fitting clothes
with no belt for athletic/sports/exercise programs).
PARTICIPATION
Before the start of any program a reminder sheet will
be sent to you by mail. This sheet will have important
information about the program. For example: What
to wear, if you should bring any money and how much,
what time the program runs, where the program is
taking place and much more.
All participants that have a fee balance remaining from
a previous season will not be allowed to register for
Follow us on
FACEBOOK!
new programs until that balance is paid in full.
Special arrangements can be made, but must be
done by contacting the office in advance.
RVSRA currently staffs most programs with one
staff to every four participants. If a participant
will need more assistance or won’t be able to
participate within this structure, please let staff
know at registration so appropriate staffing may
be attained (IF POSSIBLE).
At our larger programs such as dances and our
hayride, we ask that group home staff and parents
stay to help supervise those participants that
will need extra care. With the larger number of
enrollments our participant to staff ratio is much
lower than at other programs.
EMERGENCY CONTACT
Emergency phone numbers may be used
for reasons other than an actual emergency
situation. If staff needs to communicate any
unforeseen change(s) of plans, transportation
schedule adjustment, etc., and neither parent/
guardian can be reached, the emergency contact
is our only source to call. Please help us reduce
an anxiety created with these calls by letting
your designated “emergency contact” know that
they may be called for other situations. Your
assistance with this is appreciated.
WE NEED PICTURES!
Do you have any pictures from any of our
programs or events? If you would like to share
any of your favorite shots with us please email
them to [email protected] or bring
in to the office. We always need your pictures
to use in the RVSRA brochure!
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?
Do you have a great idea for something NEW you
would like to see in the program offerings; a new
restaurant, sport, or a fun entertainment idea?
