What happens if it rains?
Depending on the program the child is attending, rainy day activities vary. Our Recreation, GIFT, and Rookie programs continue their day with inside activities. Conditions dictate what our instructional sports schools do. (i.e., many will remain outdoors if it is a light mist, or we would try to schedule off-site gym space if the forecast is an entire day of showers). |
