Americans with
Disabilities Act (A.D.A)
This landmark civil rights
act went into effect in 1992.
It is a significant step forward to make our
society’s services and opportunities fully
available to all americans by combating
barriers and prejudices that confront those
of us with disabilities. RARA is committed
to implementing the intent and spirit of this
legislation. Those who may need
assistance in order to participate and
enjoy our programs should contact Ron
Jewell at least two weeks in advance at
248-656-8308 to discuss any necessary
accommodations or concerns.
Persons with disabilities are invited to
participate in all programs offered through
RARA. We ask that you inform us on your
registration of any special assistance that
you may need.

your city taxes.
The current non-resident fee is $20 per program for

Shakespeare in the Park, King Lear
Full Impact Theater, Teens 12 – 19
Full Impact Theater (formerly Michigan Youth Theater) offers its summer Shakespeare in the Park
intensive/production with King Lear*. Teens
are invited to participate in our acting intensive
and production, which distinguishes itself from
other theater groups by educating its members in all aspects of theater (not just acting), using the play as its vehicle for education.
Members participate in our process
that’s designed to educate them—not
only in theater, but in all facets of life.
We at Full Impact Theater believe
that training in the theater arts is
an invaluable advantage in today’s
world. Through the integrated arts
discipline of theater performance,
teens will develop self-confidence,
personal-expression skills, integrity, a sense of responsibility, and
problem-solving and time-management skills. Theater provides
a safe and nurturing venue for
teens to explore life’s challenges
while working cooperatively with others.
Through theater, teens learn to act on their dreams.
Full Impact Theater guarantees each registered and eligible**
member a role. (Our cast is capped at 40, so register early.)
Our distinct auditions serve to match each member with the
role that best fits him or her. (No advance preparation is needed
to audition. Just come and participate.) During King Lear, actors will not only learn their lines. They’ll learn what every word
Shakespeare wrote in the play means, in addition to the historical context of the times. Our members love Shakespeare and
aren’t intimidated by The Bard—because our process allows
them to “get it.” This wonderful gift carries over to their future,
when they’re reading Shakespeare in school or on their own.
Our Shakespeare in the Park auditions, rehearsals, and performances will all take place outdoors in Rochester Municipal Park,
near the Kiwanis Shelter, rain or shine. Auditions are Thursday, June 7, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. (Attendance by
teens and teens under 18 with an accompanying parent or
guardian is mandatory—no exceptions.) Rehearsals are
Monday through Thursday, either 9:00 a.m. to 12:00
p.m. or 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., beginning June 18.
(Full Impact Theater double casts its summer productions, so which rehearsal each actor will attend
depends on his or her casting.) Performances will
be Friday through Sunday, August 3 through 5.
Full Impact Theater is a full-volunteer
organization. We depend entirely on our
members and their families to make
each production a success. Therefore,
we require each actor/family to volunteer 15 hours during the course of
the production. We offer choices of
assisting anywhere from costumes to
concessions. (This policy is nonnegotiable.) For more detailed information about Full Impact Theater or our
summer intensive, please visit our
website, www.FullImpactTheater.org,
or email [email protected].
* While it is Shakespeare, King Lear
may not be suited to every family. We ask that
each teen/family read King Lear prior to registering so there are no
thematic or language surprises. Full Impact Theater’s teens perform
substantive works, and we do not alter our scripts.
** Please visit our website, www.FullImpactTheater.org, for eligibility
requirements.

Digital Photography I-All about the Basics
A beginner class for those interested in learning how their camera settings work, and how
to override some of those settings so you are in control…not the camera. Learning how to
override these settings will ease your frustration and give you beautiful memories for generations to come. You will learn about ISO, white balance, exposure compensation, drive
modes, basic zone modes, flash, focusing and much more. We will also cover some basics
of photo editing: proper image size & format, cropping, layers, retouching, color & hue, and
special effects. Two on-location photo shoots will take place locally on Saturday mornings
(8/4 & 8/18). Any digital camera can be used. Enrollment includes a workbook & in class

Do you feel limited by only shooting on automatic and want to learn all that your camera is

having full control of their camera by learning to shoot on the manual exposure setting. The
class will focus on understanding the Exposure Triangle (ISO, Shutter Speed, and Aperture),
creative zone modes, depth of field, lenses & focus, metering, bracketing and much more.
Two on-location photo shoots will take place locally on Saturday mornings, (6/23 & 7/14).
A DSLR is recommended for this class or at minimum an advanced point & shoot with the
ability to manually change the aperture and shutter speed. Enrollment includes a workbook

Digital Photography IV –Portraits, Nature & Landscape:
Tips, Tricks & Techniques
Alter your perspective, sharpen your senses, and immerse yourself in a class that will
change the way you look through your viewfinder… forever. This class brings together eyeopening experiences, technical lessons, critiques, and the instructor’s one-on-one meetings
with each participant teaching them to look through the viewfinder with fresh eyes. The
class will focus on developing a natural eye first, and then technical skills. Students learn
how to deal with tricky lighting, location nightmares, uncooperative subjects, and other issues, alleviating unnecessary pressures during a shoot so you are able to capture the best
shot of any portrait, nature or landscape scene. During the class, outdoor experiences take
students through key steps towards enriching photographs of the natural world, focusing less
on objects and more on the magic of moments and the essence of places. Clothed models
will be used for our shoots to help students practice the lessons taught in class. Three onlocation photo shoots will take place in Oakland, Macomb or Genesee counties on Saturday
mornings for 2 hours (sometimes as early as sunrise!), (6/16, 6/23 & 7/14). Any camera can
be used. Enrollment includes a workbook & in class slideshow.

Adult & Family Sanchin-Ryu / Advanced
Youth Sanchin-Ryu
Gain life skills while learning how to deal with bullies! Class topics
include a range of personal safety strategies from how to handle
a bully without fighting, to how to identify and protect yourself from
a stranger. Each week a personal safety topic is covered and specific techniques are practiced. These classes provide your child
with the techniques to enable, broaden and advance their personal safety strategies. Tremendous self-confidence is achieved!
Program Notes:
• The art of self-defense (Sanchin-Ryu) is taught, which provides great exercise, entertainment and encourages each
person to develop a greater level of discipline in his/her life.
• Program is run in a positive, structured class environment.
• Parents are encouraged to attend.
The art of Sanchin-Ryu is taught in a way that allows adult students to grow and learn at their own pace. We’ve found that
this builds self-confidence, helps understand stress management and increases composure and self-defense awareness.
This program is also a great family activity! Common sense selfdefense ideas and techniques are examined and instructed. The
Advanced Youth Sanchin-Ryu program is held in conjunction with
this program. Youth students ranking Green Belt (2nd level) and
above
continue their Sanchin-Ryu training.

Junior Golf - Play & Learn League
Junior golf at the Myth is an ideal place
for a young golfer to learn the basics of
the golf game in a fun environment. Many
of the junior golfers at the Myth return
the next season to join again. The junior
golf program starts later in the morning,
so the kids get a chance to enjoy their
lazy summer. Kids also receive lunch
with the sessions. The junior golfers
are grouped with instructors and walk to
their starting tees together. Myth teaches
the basics of golf and many make good
friends and look forward to the next season to meet again. Children
ages 6 to 13 years old are invited one day a week for the total
junior golf (6) sessions. The junior golf runs from 11 to 2 p.m. and
junior golfers must have their own equipment. Juniors can choose to
register for the Monday or Wednesday class and each day includes
lunch and group instruction focusing on a different point each week.
Junior golfers will be paired with friends upon request. Parents will
need to drop off their junior golfers with their golf bags behind the pro
shop to meet on the practice green. Groups will be formed according
to age and skill levels.

Junior Golf Development Camps
The Jim Norgart Junior Development Camps offer four 4-day sessions
designed to help students of all skill levels improve their golf game.
The program will teach students the proper fundamentals of grip,
stance, and posture, as well as provide an understanding of swing
path and clubface and alignment skills. Each student will learn to apply these skills to wood and iron play, putting, chipping, and bunker
play in both practice and playing conditions. Also included in our program will be video analysis of each students swing using state of the
art technology, as well as discussions of the rules and golf appreciation and etiquette.
The camps are designed for junior golfers of all skill levels, grades
6-12. The central focus will be building the skills necessary to enjoy
the game through greater understanding of and proficiency in the fundamentals of golf. Improvement of the short game and long game are
the specific goals of the camps. Within each session, students will be
grouped according to ability level and/or age. This allows instruction to
be more finely tuned to the needs of a particular group within a given
session. Therefore more advanced students will not be held back and
less experienced students will not be left behind.
Each session includes: professional instruction, green fees, range
balls, video analysis, lunch and snack, and prizes.

Rebounding This is a system of exercise combining all the cardiovascular and
lymphatic benefits of rebounding on a mini-trampoline with the core
strengthening and aligning benefits of Pilates. Plus…it is a lot of fun!
In addition to strengthening the Cardiovascular System, rebounding is
also essential to developing and maintaining a healthy Lymphatic System.
Your Lymphatic System is a vital system of the body. It is interactive with
every organ and is directly related to immune function and efficiency. It is
a protector and a defense mechanism against infection, viruses, bacteria,
fungi and disease. It clears toxins, wastes, excess fluids, and infection
from all tissues of the body. Rebounding is reported to increase lymph
flow by 15 to 30 times. As a result, every cell of the body is stimulated
and strengthened. Rebounding has been shown to be 68% more efficient
than running according to NASA studies.
