Can my 6 or 7 year old child participate in the 8 to 12 yrs camp, do you make exceptions?
Statistically, children below 8 years old are at a very different stage in their fine motor skill development then children ages 8 to 12. We find that 8 to 12 year old are able to learn physical coordination skills together at a comparable pace, whereas younger children are best suited in a smaller group with children of the same age. If your child is within 2 or 3 months away from being 8 and you believe him/her to be more advanced in their motor skills than most other 7 years old, we will accept them into the all levels group camp at your discretion. If your child is below 8 years old and has slower motor skills for his/her age, we recommend waiting a year so as the child can full enjoy the camp and feel confident in this type of group. We do not accept children 6 years or younger under any circumstance.
