Summer Camp Rules

Drop Off and Sign In: Children must arrive at MAS daily no later than 15 minutes before their first morning class on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. If your child will miss morning class these days for any reason, please arrive no later than 10:30 a.m. On Tuesdays and Thursdays (pool and trip days) children must arrive no later than 8:15 a.m. Your child must sign in immediately upon arrival at the front desk. Self sign is is available with the MAS member card or sign in with the front desk. This is very important because it allows us to keep track of everyone in the building at any given time. This is especially important in the event of an emergency which may require us to vacate the building.

Sign Out: For the same reasons as above, please sign your child out when you pick up at the end of every day, before leaving the studio. Authorized pickups must show identification. We cannot release your child to anyone without your prior written authorization. Sorry, no additions to your list will be allowed over the phone. Pickup is not allowed during class. Please be sure to pass this on to anyone who may be picking your child up during camp.

Please refer to the schedule for class times and for times when the camp is out of the studio. If you are planning to pick up before class but you are running late, just give us a call. We will bring your child up front to wait for you. If you will not arrive with 10 minutes after class time, we ask that you wait until after class to pick up.

A $5.00 late pickup fee will be charged beginning at one (1) minute after and then every fifteen (15) minutes after the advertised pickup time. The fee is due immediately upon pickup. We are sorry but no exceptions will be made. Your child will have long, activity filled days at camp. Please make arrangements to have him/her picked up on time.

Lunch is not included in your camp fees. Please be sure your child has a lunch when dropped off. There are two exceptions to this:

1. When advertised, some field trips include lunch.
2. Every Friday, Mr. J's Ice Cream Truck comes to MAS Summer Camp! Mr. J offers a combination lunch for $5.00. Lunch includes a hot dog, chips, drink and choice of ice cream. From time to time pizza will be offered instead of hot dogs. Mr. J's ice cream and combination lunch are not included in your camp fees. Send extra money with your child. We will gladly hold any money you prefer not to give to your child.

No gum or candy.

Electronics and cell phones: clearly label all electronics, games and toys you allow your child to bring to camp. These items will be allowed but we reserve the right to discontinue this policy if they become a distraction. NO CELL PHONES. Please take them when you drop off. We understand the need to keep in touch with your child. Should you need to speak with him/her, or your child need to speak with you, a member of our staff is available to connect you by phone.
***Note: as indicated in the waiver you signed at registration, we are not responsible for lost or stolen items. Please do not allow your child to bring any items to camp if you are not willing to hold him/her responsible. None of the above mentioned items are allowed on pool and field trip days.

Attire

No skirts, skorts, short-shorts, flip flops, Sandals, Crocs, Heelies, open toed shoes of any kind allowed. The only exception to this will be pool day when crocs and flip flops will be allowed.

Label all attire and belongings clearly with your child's first name and last initial, first initial and last name, or complete name.

Be prepared to dress in the appropriate attire for each class. If your child is not prepared, they will be given loaners if available and you will be billed $2.00 per item. If loaners are not available the missing/unavailable attire will be billed to your account and provided to your child.

Cubbies are provided to ensure your child has his/her required attire daily. It is your choice to have him/her leave attire overnight during the week. Either way, the above policy will be enforced without exception. Although the cubbies are labeled with your child's name, we require his/her things be secured inside a closed bag (preferably by zipper but draw string allowed) at all times. You can use your own bags.
