How To Prepare For The Week

What Should I Wear

For everyone’s safety, we suggest wearing leotards for girls and athletic clothes for boys that are not too loose to avoid getting caught in the equipment. Please don’t wear socks or jewelry, and remember to tie long hair back to keep it out of your face. Also, don’t forget to dress up according to the week’s theme on Fridays!

Drop Off & Pick Up

– BE ON TIME –
Drop-off starts at 8:45 AM. Camp Starts 9am
Pick-up starts at 2:45 PM. Camp is over at 3pm but we will start getting the gymnasts ready for pickup! 

Our Staff will escort your child into camp and back to your car during pick-up.

We will help them put their things into the cubbies and help make their way to their groups!

We kindly ask that you remain safely in your vehicle throughout your visit with us for your convenience and protection. In order to better assist you, our helpful staff will be there to guide you every step of the way and will provide clear and easy-to-follow signage to ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience for all. Please rest assured that your child’s well-being is our top priority, and we are committed to making your visit as safe and stress-free as possible. Of course, parents are always welcome in our facility at any time of the day.

Star Cards

Our reloadable gift card is the perfect solution for parents who want to give their child some spending money for snacks and drinks in our PRO Shop. Unlike cash, the Star Card can easily be reloaded once the balance runs low. It’s a convenient and hassle-free way to ensure your child has access to refreshments whenever needed. Plus, the Star Card comes with a few extra benefits you won’t get with cash, such as tracking your child’s spending and ensuring they’re not overspending. Please note that new cards have an initial activation fee of $1.50.

Get your child’s Star Card today and let them enjoy their time at our PRO Shop even more!

Snack Time & Lunch Time

The kids will have a quick snack break during the day. Also, there will be a one-hour lunch period. One hour is suited for having lunch, settling down, and some board game time. 

STAY HYDRATED – There are water fountains in our facility. Also, our pro shop has bottled water for purchase if needed.

Lunch will be eaten in the lobby. If they would like to purchase anything from the Pro Shop, we will allow them time to shop around after eating what they have brought from home. 

It's All About Being Organized

Let’s take you through a brief day of camp! 

After your child has put their belongings into a cubby, we will take them out onto the gym floor to get started! They will remain in age appropriate groups throughout the day, participating in gymnastics events. They will stay with the same instructor the entire day.

Everyone will participate in weekly themed games, crafts, and activities. The craft will also be on Thursday! Friday, we will have a dress-up day and fashion show!

Lunch will be eaten in the lobby. If they would like to purchase anything from the Pro Shop, we will allow them time to shop around after eating what they have brought from home. 

At the end of the day, you will pull up to the door to pick up your child. We do recommend being early to the line! You will remain in your car the entire time. 

Back Packs

We would like to kindly remind you that it would be greatly appreciated if you could pack all of your daily items in a small backpack or drawstring bag for easy transport and convenience during your child’s daily activities.

Additionally, it would be helpful if you could kindly include your name on your backpack or bag to avoid confusion.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation and assistance. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.

 

 

Pizza Day - Wednesday

  • Pizza Day is optional. We will order cheese pizza and caprisun for campers who want some during lunch.
