Special Summer Gymnastics Class

Dynamic Gymnastics is offering special summer gymnastics classes for campers enrolled in the “Catch Me If You Can” Summer Camp program. These classes are held once a week for 55 minutes, while camp is in session. The price is $16 per class each week . Please note, Tom Thumb will reimburse $6 for each camper taking the gymnastics class each week on the day they are in camp. Hence, the net extra charge for parents is only $10 per class each week

At camp we rotate the childern to Dynamic Gymnastics as we rotate our activities with Arts and Crafts, SAR time (Stay Academically Refreashed) and outside play. No child who signs up for this offer will miss our camp activities, especially if it’s a rainy day. We have a lot of flexibility with Dynamic Gymnastics class schedule.

School Outing to Iroquois Longhouse

On our Tom Thumb Outing in November of 2010, we visited the Church of the North American Martyrs. It was built like an Iroquois long house, with a barrel-shaped ceiling and false-face masks staring outward to ward off evil spirits. The building’s architecture and artifacts were interesting and allowed the childern to experience first hand our local  native American Indian influence in the area and a little bit of history at the same time.

Our thanks to the Pastor  of Columbanus Church for allowing Tom Thumb students to visit this historic building for over 40 years.
