Summer Camp FAQs

Enrollment for summer camp is by the week only.  We do offer several daily camp options throughout the school year for school holidays/closures.

A full refund will be provided for cancellations through May 31, 2023.  After this date, a credit will be provided for cancellations requested a minimum of 30 days prior to the start of the camp week.  For cancellations requested  less than 30 days prior to the start of a session, you can request to transfer camp weeks.  See transfer policy for more information.

Families may transfer camp weeks at no fee a minimum of 14 days prior to the start of the camp week.  For transfers requested less than 14 days prior to the start of the camp week, there is a $50 transfer fee. All transfers are based on camper availability at the time of the request and must take place during Summer Camp 2023.

You are welcome to waitlist for as many camp weeks as you want.  If a space opens up, we will email all of the families on the waitlist at the same time.  Whoever responds to that email first, via email, gets the open spot!  We suggest not calling or emailing questions as you will likely miss the opening.

We are a safe, supportive, and empowering gymnastics and ninja gym for all!  Our goal is to develop your child’s self-confidence and strength while teaching quality gymnastics, fostering friendships, and building memories that will last a lifetime. By signing up for summer camp, your child will be provided an experience to grow and develop many life-long skills such as leadership, cooperation, and problem-solving outside the comforts of home.  We can’t wait to be a part of your child’s summer camp experience!

Junior gymnastics camp is open to ages 4-5, and your child must be completely potty-trained and able to use the restroom independently to attend camp.  Recreational Gymnastics camp and Ninja camp is open to ages 6-13.  We welcome beginning through advanced level gymnasts & ninjas.

If your child has special needs, please contact us prior to registering to make sure we can provide the appropriate level of care & support for your child.  Safety is a priority, and enrolled children must be able to stay with their group, follow instructions, and cooperate with other children and staff.  An evaluation may be recommended to determine readiness.

Campers will split into groups and go to different rotations for gymnastics & ninja instruction each day.  Gymnastics campers will rotate through events including vault, bars, beam, floor, tumble track, rope & pit, and more.  They will also have the opportunity to explore the ninja courses.  Ninja campers will rotate through a variety of obstacle courses and challenges.  They will also spend a rotation in the gymnastics gym for some fun & learning.  Each day also includes games, crafts, theme activities, team building, and more!

We group children by age to the best of our ability, according to the ages of the children we have attending camp each week.

We do our best to honor friend requests when possible.  You may request up to two friends of a similar age for your child to be grouped with.  Please send your request at least 10 days prior to the start of the camp week. In order to encourage new friendships to develop as well, larger groups of friends may be placed into more than one group.

Athletic attire is required.  Leggings, shorts, tanks, and leotards are welcome.  All tops must cover the midriff and be fitted or tucked in (to keep children safe when going upside down). Long hair must be pulled back into a ponytail or braids.  There are no shoes or socks worn by gymnasts in the gym area, but make sure to bring or wear sneakers daily for when the campers utilize the Ninja gym (both Ninja camp and Rec Gymnastics Camp will spend time in both spaces).

Not permitted: two piece or midriff clothing, skirts/dresses (including leotards with skirts attached), clothing with buttons/zippers/strings, hair bows, jewelry (except for stud earrings)

Please bring the following and LABEL all items:

•  Lunch and snacks – ALL food must be NUT-free
  • AM participants – one snack (lunch is served at 12:30 after AM camp)
  • PM participants – a lunch and one snack
  • FULL day participants – a lunch and two snacks
• Water bottle – full day campers should bring two water bottles
• Preschool camp – please pack an extra set of clothes each day in case of spills or accidents.

Camp is not the same as a gymnastics class. Gymnastics & ninja classes are a bit more structured, and we chart the children’s progress through skill cards.  In camp, the children are learning gymnastics & ninja, but the skills are often incorporated into the games the children play.

The preschoolers do not take naps.  However, they do have 30 minutes of downtime each day for quiet activities including coloring or storytime.

Unfortunately, we do not administer medication to children.  Please make arrangements to bring your child their medication.  For emergency medication including inhalers and epi-pens, please give the medication to the front desk in its original container with your child’s name on it and detailed instructions.

In order to keep our campers and counselors healthy, campers with symptoms of illness or fever within the past 24 hours are asked to stay home.  If a camper arrives with symptoms of illness, or develops symptoms during the camp day, the child will not be permitted to stay.  A parent or guardian must pick up sick/ill children immediately.

Safety and respect are top priorities for a successful and fun camp.  Therefore, it is imperative that all children listen to our staff, follow all gym safety rules, and treat their coaches and fellow campers with respect.  If this code of conduct is not followed, a warning will be given followed by time outs if necessary.  If the behavior continues, we reserve the right to send a child home and possibly dismiss the child from the program for behavior or safety issues.  There are no refunds if a child is dismissed from the program for misconduct.

We will keep your child engaged and active throughout the day, so bringing items from home is not necessary.  Please note that if you do choose to bring items from home, we will not be responsible for missing or damaged items.

With the exception of necessary staff use, we strive to create an unplugged zone for our campers.  Therefore, no electronic hand-held devices are allowed to be used at camp.  This policy is designed to give your children a much-needed break from the world of technology, enrich the connections they make with other campers, and ensure that your children cannot post camp photos of themselves & other campers on the internet.  Any cell phones brought to camp will be placed in a secure location, and your child may pick up the phone at the end of the camp day.
