Additional Comments or Concerns:
Safety in the Town of Whitby’s Recreation Programs
Safety is our number one concern at the Town of Whitby. We need to consider the safety of every
participant and sta member when determining a Participant’s eligibility and continued participation in
our programs. The Town of Whitby reserves the right to refuse a Participant’s registration or require a
Participant to withdraw from a program based on any one of the following:
Participant does not meet the criteria;
Participant’s needs cannot be safely met;
Participant poses a danger to themselves or others;
Town of Whitby sta are unable to meet the care level required to ensure the Participant’s safety
and success in the program;
Participant’s medical/physical/behavioural condition is signicantly dierent than what was disclosed
on the Participant Information Form; or,
If a Participant injures a sta member or another participant, the Participant will be sent home
immediately. In order to return to the program, a plan will be put in place by the Supervisor (or
designate) in consultation with the parents/guardians to ensure a safe environment for the sta and
participants. If, upon return, a second incident occurs, the Participant will be removed from the
program unless outside support is provided by the parents/guardians.
I/We, __________________________, understand that the safety of participants and sta is the Town of
Whitby’s top priority. I/We understand that in circumstances where the safety of participants and/or sta is
compromised, the Town of Whitby has the right to remove the Participant from the program.
