Covid-19 Response: Winter/Spring Program Update

Greetings to our Dynamo Winter/Spring Families,

We hope you and your family are in good health and are enjoying the wonderful, warm weather.

We wish we had better news to share with members registered in our Winter/Spring Session. We’re sad to say it has simply become impossible to run any part the session due to the extended Covid-19 restrictions implemented by the provincial/regional governments.

There it is, we said it. That’s the bad news.

Now for some good news. Covid case numbers are going down quickly and vaccination rates are going up even faster. That means good things are on the horizon for sport and recreation programs like Dynamo’s. That also means good things for families seeking vital opportunities to engage in physical fitness, and fun.

Unfortunately, we are not yet able to confirm a date as to when recreational gymnastics classes can resume, and await specific announcements released as part of the province’s new Roadmap to Reopening Ontario. Our sport governing body, Gymnastics Ontario, is currently seeking clarification and is lobbying to allow gymnastics clubs to open sooner. Dynamo, and gymnastics clubs across the country, have proven to be able to offer safe environments for their members during the pandemic.

Now that the Winter/Spring Session is unable to resume, Dynamo has placed all fees as credit on Dynamo family accounts (including the Insurance/Admin fee for those who paid that fee as part of registering for the Winter/Spring Session). Please note account credits can be used toward payments for any programs or merchandise at Dynamo, and will not expire.

We would also like to remind our members that those who maintain a credit for the cancelled session will have priority enrolment privileges when our we are permitted to resume recreational programs.

So many families have weathered this storm with us, and for that we cannot thank our loyal members enough. This pandemic experience has been challenging for each and every one of us, but we’ll get through this together.

We’ve heard from so many members who desperately want to see their kids back in the gym, experiencing the physical, mental and social benefits gymnastics has to offer. We’ll be right here waiting for you when regulations permit. In the meantime, we’re dedicating ourselves to ensuring our facility and programs not only meet, but exceed, all health and safety standards.

We continue to closely monitor government announcements and will communicate updates as soon as they’re available. Updates will be shared via email, website and social media posts. We are also awaiting clarification on regulations to be implemented for indoor summer sports camps.

If you have any questions regarding programs or accounts, please email info@dynamogymnastics.ca.

Health and happiness to all,

Dynamo Admin Support Team
