Hello Wings Families,
We hope this email finds you well and ready for gymnastics to be starting Tuesday, January 4, 2022, or Thursday, January 6, 2022! We are excited about this next session, and we would like to welcome all our families, new and old, to Wings.
Currently, gymnastics clubs are allowed to remain open but circumstances can cause the situation to change quickly. We will share all updates, as they become available, on social media and on our website. We will also send an email to all members if there are any changes to our programs or our program requirements.
We will continue to follow the Provincial Health Office directives and the safety plan which was developed by ViaSport and Gymnastics BC. Our Communicable Disease Plan can be found on our website, here.
Please read the following information carefully.
Drop Off and Pick Up
- For those of you that are new to Wings, classes take place in the Sports Hall at the Cameron Recreation Centre in Burnaby.
- Families will enter through the lower-level doors, by the Sports Desk. (Please see the photo below for reference)
- Upon entry to the building, please let the attendant at the door know that you are with Wings.
- Parents may enter the facility ONLY to drop off or pick up. There are no spectators allowed in the Sports Hall at any time.

Vaccination & Masks
- Masks are mandatory for everyone, ages 5 and up, entering the Cameron Recreation Centre and they are required in all common areas, like the lobby or using the washroom.
- Masks are not required in the gym once your class begins. Wearing a mask during the class is optional if that is something that you or your child would like to do, to help keep those around us healthy.
Daily Health check
- Please assess your child’s health before bringing them to Wings.

Fever or chills

Fatigue

What to Wear & Bring

- Bring a small duffle bag or backpack to hold your jacket, shoes, and water bottle.
Communication
- We occasionally have issues with emails not going through to Hotmail and Outlook addresses. Our emails are sent from a large server and Hotmail and Outlook will occasionally block them. If you would like to be assured of receiving our communications, we would recommend that your primary email in Active be changed to a different address. Alternatively, you can try adding wingsgymnastics@gmail.com to your contacts list.
- All coach communication will be done through email. If you need to speak to a Coach, please email the club at wingsgymnastics@gmail.com with your coach’s name in the subject line. The email will be forwarded to them.
- You can also email the club administrator for any other questions at wingsgymnastics@gmail.com.
We are not able to invite parents to stay in the gym currently, so please “Like” or “Follow” Wings Gymnastics Society on Facebook and Instagram. We will regularly share photos and other updates. You will find the link to our pages below.
