Important Information
- You must register your child by 2/12/2020, so the chaperones can plan accordingly.
- Kids must be potty-trained AND able to use a standard public restroom toilet without assistance.
- If your child has a medical need, we will need more information in the google form. Notice: medication will NOT be given during this time-frame due to liability issues.
- Kids must be picked up on time.
- If your child needs drinks/snacks, please send them with your child. Additional snacks will NOT be provided by the Jr. Beta Club.
- If you are wanting to register more than one child, just hit "refresh" on your browser after submitting the form. A blank form will then appear.
*Beta students who wish to volunteer will need to fill out a separate google form in their beta club google classroom. They will pay a fee of $3 to cover their pizza and drink. The expectation of any beta student who is volunteering is to help the chaperones entertain those who we are babysitting.
