Realize that we have 13, soon to be 16, sites. Getting these sites ready for the school year is a task, which is why we close Adventure Club in early August.
We had a single-parent casually mention to us that they have to use all their vacation to watch their kid until school starts.
That was troubling.
We always say that we are there 90% for the kids and 10% for the working parents.
This year we are going to host BONUS DAYS. We will remain open from August 11-20, which should basically leave parents two days, rather than three weeks, to fend for themselves. We will maintain the same summer hours of 7:30-5:30 in Marshall and 7:00-6:00 is Hallsville and Waskom.
While we are not trying to get extra money from anyone, but know that this is an unbudgeted expense, so the cost will be $70. We get a lot out of our staff, but with rent to pay, "free" isn't something that they can readily do.
We need about 60 kids signed up between all three sites, and we already have several, to make this happen. To sign up, please call the Club by July 31, 2014.
