Requests to be with another gymnast who is in the same class will be accommodated where possible. Enter the friend’s name in the “Pairing with a Friend” section.

Age:
All gymnasts must be the correct age on the first day of the camp week they are signing up for. The camps are for gymnasts 4 years of age up to 17 years of age.

The Woodstock Gymnastics Club reserves the right at any time to ask to be shown the gymnast’s birth certificate or passport for verification of the registered gymnast’s date of birth. Failure to provide age verification within one day from being asked, will result in the gymnast being removed from the camp for the remainder of the week.

Removal from the camp will result in a full or partial refund. There is an administrative fee charged when there is a full or partial refund issued by the club, for any circumstance. Refer to the Fee section below for pricing.

Everyone should have bare feet for gymnastics, and long hair should be tied back.

Drop Off, Pick Up and Viewing:
Parents will drop their children off in the gym club lobby area at the start of camp and pick them up in the gym club lobby area at the end of camp. The back hallway viewing area is available for everyone to watch camp if they wish.

All gymnasts must be comfortable not having their parent in the gym with them, and they must be able to stay with their coach and group.

Only currently registered gymnasts are allowed inside the gym.

Parents/spectators can only be in the gym club’s lobby when it is time to drop off or pick up their child from camp, or if they need to use the washroom.

Do not remain in the gym club’s lobby area, except the time immediately before the start and end of your child’s summer camp.

During the week of summer camp, gymnasts create a group routine to show the other groups on Friday. This fun activity is designed to develop teamwork and respect for one another’s performances. Parents are certainly welcome, but not expected, to come and watch.

Summer Program Information:
The summer camp program is for gymnastics for girls and boys, and runs by the week in the morning and/or afternoon.

Choose both morning camp and afternoon camp if you want to register for full days.

Summer Camp works a little differently than during the regular season. Rotations are 15 minutes long. There is a 15 minute snack break after the first hour and 15 minutes of camp. This is followed by a non-gymnastics activity for 30 minutes each day. There is not a specific conditioning rotation at camp, but gymnasts who want to do conditioning can choose to do that instead of the daily non-gymnastics activity. Each group makes up a small show for the last day of camp, and there is a 15-minute rotation each day to practice the show. Gymnasts will then receive a certificate at the end of the week from their coach which highlights something they achieved during that week.

In the summer camp program, certain weeks may have both girls and boys in the same group. The grouping depends on registrations for each particular week time period.

The gymnasts remain in the facility and are supervised at all times.
The gymnastics club is air conditioned.
