Special Instructions:

Parents are responsible for arranging transportation for students for the club.

I will be at the gate at 8:00 to meet your child and walk them to our club classroom. Please be on time so we can begin our class in a timely manner.

I will walk students to their classrooms (or playground) after club has ended.
