Diapers, a change of clothing, comfort items, age appropriate snack/beverages items in clean ready to use containers, must be left with the child at the time of drop off. Please pack a full change of clothing for all children under the ages 5. Please label all children’s belongings with the child’s full name. For parent’s convenience, The Timbers provides infant care products such diapers and wipes as backup to what parents have sent. Cloth diapers are prohibited. Children must be completely covered on top and bottom, including covering over diapers. Please provide a complete change of clothes, at least one extra bottle, and/or baby food in addition to any regular portions they will need while in our care. Additional items such as cream, pacifiers, and comfort items are welcome. Counselors are required to adhere to AAP Safe Sleep Guidelines for SIDS prevention. Il lness Policy Our full Illness Policy is in the Policies form you signed with your registration packet. Basically, if they are too sick for school they are also unable to attend Timbers Drop-In Care, events, or camps. Please be mindful and help us keep everyone healthy.

What to Expect During Drop-In care your child will have time to freely explore games, crafts, and more. When it is appropriate and staff coverage allows for it our counselors will lead the kids in some games and activities. During “reservation required’ events and camps you can expect a schedule of themed counselor led activities such as games, sports, crafts, and more. What to Bring Please make sure you have a completed and updated registration packet on file with us. For children 5 and under we ask that you send a complete change of clothes each time you drop them off. We ask that every time your child comes please send a water bottle labeled with their name on it. During the summer please send sunscreen. Food and Beverages We will provide your child a snack during their time with us. For Drop-In care this will be goldfish or animal crackers. During events and camps the snacks will vary based on theme and events. During “registration required” events and camps we will notify you at the time of registration if lunch or dinner will be provided. At any other time, you are welcome to notify our staff if you would like us to order a meal for your child from the Troon. We are a strictly nut and gum free area. If you do send a snack for your child, please be sure to abide by this rule. We can’t allow them to eat any nut products.

Please remember that under Georgia State Law, we are only permitted to have children in the Timbers for no more than 4 hours a day/ 10 hours a week. In case of an audit by the state, we could lose our permit to operate if we are not following these rules. This does not apply to “Events”, such as Friday Flicks or Sunday Funday which is why we are trying to offer more events in lieu of drop in care, so you are able to utilize the timbers even more!

Ana Gonzalez Mendoza is from Argentina and another player who was top 5 in the country. She will spend the entire summer with us. Ana was coached by former ATP Top 5 player Alberto Mancini. She played 1 season at Weber State and is currently playing at Coastal GA. Both players have a UTR of 12.5 and 8.9 and are among the best players in the country.

A qu a t i c s SWIM LESSONS OVERVIEW Atlanta Athletic Club (AAC) is happy to provide your child with a quality swimming experience with group & private lessons to fit your child’s needs! Children must have comparable skills from another swim program or have completed a swim evaluation with

SWIM & DIVE LESSONS PRIVATE (1:1) & SEMI-PRIVATE (1:2) COST:

$45 per half hour for Private lessons / $30 per half hour for Semi-private lessons Our private and semi-private swimming classes provide a more personalized experience. Private lessons are 30 minutes long and pair one swimmer with one instructor. Semi-private lessons also last 30 minutes, but two swimmers can join the same lesson, which makes these lessons a wonderful fit for siblings or friends who want to swim together. Private swim lessons help adults and kids alike increase their skills and comfort in the water. Private lessons are ideal for students who learn better with individual attention, including anxious first-time swimmers, kids with special needs, adults who have put off learning to swim, and competitive swimmers who would benefit from targeted training on specific skill sets. Private lessons are also a great fit for former runners and other athletes interested in lower-impact exercise options. If you’d like to make your private lesson a semi-private, please coordinate with the individual that you want to share a lesson with (we do not pair individuals for semi-private lessons). PRIVATE LESSONS (2 Yrs. – Adult) Private lessons are available for all skill levels and are a great option for those looking to progress or refine skills quickly. Classes are offered by all swim coaches on an ongoing basis throughout the summer. Members are encouraged to reach out to the Swim Lesson Coordinator at sem@aac1.org for assistance securing an instructor. All lessons are subject to a 24–hour cancellation policy and all lessons are billed for a 30-minute time frame. SEMI-PRIVATE LESSONS (2 Yrs. – Adult) Private lessons are available for all skill levels and are a great option for siblings or friends to be in the same class. Classes are offered by all swim coaches throughout the summer. Members are encouraged to reach out to them directly but feel free to contact the Swim Lesson Coordinator at sem@aac1.org for assistance securing an instructor. All lessons are subject to a 24 –hour cancellation policy and all lessons are billed for a 30-minute time frame.

an AAC instructor or coach in order to be enrolled in a higher level class. Please remember that everyone progresses at different speeds and all participants will need to pass a “pre-test” on the first day of class or have completed a swim evaluation prior to registration. At that time, the instructor may recommend another class better suited for your child. We require a minimum of 3 children in order to hold a group lesson. Swim safe with us this summer! COMPLIMENTARY SWIMMER ASSESSMENT If you are unsure about which level to place your child in for swim lessons, please contact Jonathan Lee at jlee@aac1.org or Sally Meier at sem@aac1.org to schedule a complimentary 15-minute swim assessment to get started. We will evaluate your child’s skills and determine their starting swim level.
