What else should I know about my "GMC" Day?

How Long?
Our presentation will be approximately 70 minutes in length and will conclude with a special awards ceremony. Each athlete will receive his or her own GOLD MEDAL and Certificate of Achievement. (Athletes must attend and perform to receive medal)

Arrival Time...
Students are to arrive no earlier than 15 minutes before their "Session" and report to gym for warm-up.

Entry Fee...
There is an annual $40.00 entry fee due each year from each enrolling student, beginning September. You may either pay in full when you first enroll your child into any Gymnastics of Ashe classes, OR, pay it in two installments. There is a $20.00 minimum deposit due when enrolling each child, towards the next upcoming Gymnastics of Ashe event. (The $20.00 deposit is "Non-Refundable/Non-Transferable")

The balance of $20.00 is automatically added to your child(s) January tuition, regardless on what pay plan you are on. (Note: When a family enrolls their child(ren) in Gymnastics of Ashe class(es) in the months of January thru March, the $20.00 balance is due within 30 days of enrolling.)

Note: Every parent will receive a form to fill out the middle of March each year. Please fill it out and return it to front desk or by mail, by your child's last class in March!! This form will let us know your child's T-shirt size (Youth Small = 6 - 8 / YM = 10 - 12/ YL = 14 - 16/ Adult Small, AM, AL, AXL ).

The fee covers 3-D Gold Medal Awards, your personalized certificate & T-shirt, event supervision, food, and other program cost.  Please see your "Parents Handbook" or website for this scheduled event and procedures!

C'mon parents, if you've ever paid for recital costumes, sports uniforms, tournament or meet entries or belt tests in any sport, you know how reasonable this truly is.

Audience Admission Fee:
NONE! Just mass quantities of applause, cheering, smiles and encouragement of all kinds! Cameras & videos weIcome!
