Summer Camp Update

We would like to thank our families already registered in our Summer Camp 2020 programs for their patience. We hope you are all staying well.

Dynamo is planning to offer our Summer Camp programs as scheduled, and we are especially excited after the province of Ontario announced summer camps will go ahead, with strict health and safety restrictions in place.

At this time Dynamo, along with other gymnastics clubs across Ontario, is awaiting direction from our sport governing body as to what guidelines will be implemented to ensure safety of all participants and staff. In anticipation of offering camp programs, we are diligently planning camp activities that will comply with new health and safety restrictions, including physical distancing.

We would also like to share important news that Dynamo was permitted by the province to resume training for our competitive members as of June 1, and our Covid-19 safety and cleaning protocols have already been inspected by Region of Waterloo Public Health. We passed with flying colours! We have specified entrance and exit protocols, gym use rotations and exceptional cleaning schedules. We have secured cleaning products and technology, including an electro-static sprayer, which are all approved to kill Covid-19 and are safe for use. We also have a thermal scanner on site to screen for fevers. The same attention to detail will most certainly be applied to our recreational programs.

We fully understand, however, not all families may feel comfortable reintroducing their children to recreational programs just yet. We are very sensitive to these issues and will offer credits/refunds for camp. Refunds (made via cheque only) must be requested one week before the start of a registered camp. Credits, applied to Dynamo family accounts, will not expire and can be used toward future programs or purchase of merchandise.

We are looking forward to seeing smiling faces back in the gym for camp and we will update our families as soon as we receive more news regarding summer camp programs. Please note we will be asking families to sign updated waivers as part of Gymnastics Ontario’s Covid-19 response plan.

Stay safe and well everyone! We hope to see you all soon!
