LATE PICK-UP POLICY
*** PLEASE READ CAREFULLY ***

Here at Ancient City Gymnastics we have experienced many late pick-ups by parents. While we understand that traffic or just plain life can sometimes make a person late, please keep in mind that with each parent being late only once per week has, in past summers, resulted in the coaches, counselors etc…. being kept waiting every single day.

In addition to your child becoming upset if you do not arrive as usual, please remember that our staff have their own responsibilities and commitments to attend to after camp. Because traffic and other outside factors are always unpredictable, allowing a margin in your travel time is key.

Since the primary responsibility of Ancient City Gymnastics is your child’s protection and well-being, the following policy has now been set in place in the event that you do not pick up or arrange to have someone pick up your child at the end of camp:
 

1. Ancient City Gymnastics will attempt to reach all emergency contact numbers, including parents or guardians at home, work and cell phone numbers, as provided by parent/guardian on the child’s registration form.
 

2. It is your responsibility as parents or guardians to provide the number of any and all persons who you authorize to pick up your child and to keep Ancient City Gymnastics informed of any changes in these contact numbers.
 

3. If Ancient City Gymnastics is unable to reach anyone at any of the contact numbers provided by the parent/guardian, and one-half hour has elapsed, Ancient City Gymnastics will unfortunately need to call outside authorities.
 

4. Late Pick-Up Fee:  A minimum fee of $10.00 (family) will be charged to your account starting five (5) minutes after the end of your child’s class time. In addition, starting five (5) minutes after class you will be charged an additional $1.00 per minute you are late. The card on file will be charged this late fee. The time will be judged by the Ancient City Gymnastics clock.
 

If you know that you will be late, please be considerate and give us a call at 904-342-0109. You will still be charged the late pick-up fee but will give your child and the Ancient City Gymnastics employee’s peace of mind. *If no one has arrived to pick up the child after a half hour and no emergency contacts can be reached, police will be notified.
 

5. Under all circumstances, the staff of Ancient City Gymnastics shall not hold your child responsible in any way for the late pick up, and discussion of this issue will only be with the parent or guardian and never with your child.
