For those with children in the tots program, please make sure they use the bathroom on arrival. Parents are required to stay in the building for children under the age of 5, but you can ask the coach if they are okay with you leaving the building. Please respect their choice either way. There is no upstairs viewing at this time. We have purchased tv's and camera's and are just waiting to have them installed.
When you arrive, please wait in the main waiting area, your coach will come and introduce themselves and collect your child at the start of class.
I will be out of the office on Tuesday and Wednesday but Callyann will be in the office and can assist you if you need to make payments or changes. I can also be reached by email during that time if you have any concerns.
We still have lots of room left in our Summer Camps and Summer Mini Sessions; we've added a referral program this summer, and for every person you get to join, you will receive a $20 credit onto your account. Summer camps can be pro-rated for the remainder of the week if joined late, Mini Sessions can be joined until the second class, after which we do not accept late registrations.
If admin registered you for a program please go into your account on Uplifter and click the subheading that says "policies" from there you should be prompted to sign forms for the 23/24 year. All waivers and forms must be signed before your child is allowed to participate. All waivers expired June 30th, so everyone must sign a new waiver. If you registered yourself, you would have been prompted to sign a waiver before payment was collected and no further action will be required.
Thanks

Hello Parents and Guardians,
Last day of classes will be Tuesday June 27th!
Summer Training will begin July 4th!
Please see below for answer to Summer Competitive Programming Questions
Teams, Developmental and Competitive Programming year end event is this Sunday, June 25th from 4:30-6:30pm. We will have a potluck at 4:30, followed by awards and then the children will be given free time on the gym floor. Please make sure they come in attire that is safe for gymnastics. (Please note order of events may change)
It is a potluck event, the potluck items for each team are attached to the google form for the event. If you haven't completed one, please do so now. Even if you are NOT coming, please let us know, so we can anticipate numbers (link below). We do have limited spacing so please leave siblings at home if you are able to do so, they will not be able to go onto the gym floor during free play. Reminder: We are a nut-free facility.
Summer
We have had a few questions about the summer schedule for Developmental and Competitive programs so we thought we would clarify:
Do I have to go to all the classes? You do not need to attend all the classes, only your minimum number of required days (ranges between 10-15 depending on your program.) You are welcome to attend as many as you would like too. ** "Teams" summer training is not included in this registration.
How do sign up for the days we are available? You should have received an email with a link for TeamSnap earlier this week. Once you have joined you will select all the days that you will be attending. If you have a current child in TeamSnap it will automatically pop up, if this is your first time, you'll have to create a login. Once you click the link it will direct you from there. (It may come from Trenna Wright).
What happens if I register for a day, and I cannot make it? You can log back into team snap and change your status for that class. You can also select another day to attend at this time. Please try and do this as soon as you know you cannot attend so that we can ensure other parents have an opportunity to register that day.
How Do I register for summer training? A link was sent out by Uplifter email, if you have not received it, please check your junk mail and then contact admin if you still have not received it.
Are there payment options for summer programming? Summer program fees can be paid bi-weekly until paid off in needed. If you require any assistance with payment, please contact admin. They will need to register you on their end to by-pass the payment required at check out.
Insurance is required to be paid by July 1st.
What level do we register in? For summer training please register your child in the same program they are currently attending. If you are unsure of your program name, please contact admin.
Thanks

FOR: PARTICIPANTS OF THE EASTER EGG HUNT - Sent April 3rd, 20223
Hello,
The Easter Egg Hunt and Gymnastic Drop-In is on Monday, April 10th! Don't forget your easter basket to collect your treats, as we will be collecting the plastic eggs at the end of the event.
WELCOME (BACK) PARENTS & PARTICIPANTS!
Classes begin on Monday April 3rd for our Spring Session. Below you will find some helpful information to assist throughout this season.Athletes should arrive with their hair tied back, wearing athletic clothes, bare feet and no jewelry, buttons or zippers that can get caught on equipment. Please send a labelled non-glass water bottle.
Please arrive no more 5 minutes before your class starts. We ask that all athletes stay in the lobby until they are called onto the floor by their coach. Parents are not allowed on the gym floor. Please make sure you are not blocking the door to the gym floor. We also are not allowed to have parents sitting on the stairs.
For Upstairs programs (typically Parent & Tot, Tiny Tot, Tot & Jr Rec) there is no parent viewing at this time. On your first day please wait in the waiting area and your coach will come get you. After your first day, you can bring your child upstairs and drop them off at the door. If your child needs extra time to calm down at drop-off, please do so outside of the room, and join the class when they are ready.
If your child is 5 or under, we ask that you remain in the building for their classes. Please remind your child to go to the bathroom before the class starts. Some coaches will make an exception for our older programs (Tot & Jr Rec) and will allow parents to leave the building. You can check with your coach on your first day, but please respect their response.
Just a reminder that refunds can only take place up until the third class. Please contact admin if you need to leave the program during that time. Sorry, there are no make-up classes for sick days.
Parent Viewing Days/Updates tend to get missed, so we recommend setting a reminder on your phone now. We have attached a list below, and the information will also be on our bulletin board.
Email is our main form of communication, please make sure you read the emails sent out as it will contain all closure dates, program changes, fundraisers and more. All information will also be posted on the bulletin board; Please check it monthly.
Please let the staff know if anyone else will be picking up your child. As a safety precaution please come into the building to grab your child if they are younger, there have been a few close calls in the parking lot.
There is an office schedule posted on the office door, if you need any assistance please see our operations coordinator during those hours, or email: admin@fortsaskgymnastics.ca
