HOUSEKEEPING ITEMS

With the arrival of winter, gymnasts and coaches are asked to remove their wet footwear outside of the gym doors, place them in a plastic grocery bag and bring them into the gymnasium while participating in gym class. Parents are also asked to not walk on the gym floors with wet boots. This will ensure that the gym floors are kept clean and safe for use by all gymnasts and boots will not be misplaced. The Club cannot assume responsibility for lost or stolen boots and clothing. Please ensure that gymnasts have their belongings with them in the gym.

SAMPO T-SHIRTS

Sampo t-shirts will be available to order in January. See your Coach for an order form.
