Notes

Food – Except for Friday, parents are responsible to send their children with meals/snacks all days of the workshop.

Allergies – Do not pack anything with nuts (peanut butter, mixed nuts, etc.) to avoid allergy problems.

Pick-up and Drop-off – Official pick-up and drop-off times are 15 minutes before classes (drop-off) and within 15 minutes after classes (pick-up). If you are running behind for the drop-off before classes—that is fine—please escort your son/daughter to the classes in the St. Botolph building. If you are running behind for the pick-up, please contact us as soon possible.

YMCA Van Transportation – The YMCA transportation is on a separate schedule. Please refer to that schedule for specific times.
