Child Pick Up / Release Policy  

Any child under the age of 12 must be picked up on time at the end of each class. A grace period of 15 minutes will be allowed. If an instructor must wait with the child after 15 minutes a charge of $15/15 min will be charged to your account.

Children under the age of 12 placed in the care of “The Organization” will only be released to a parent, legal guardian, or person designated by a parent or legal guardian, or in a fashion agreed upon in writing by the parent or legal guardian. For clarification, children under 12 can be approved to leave the care of “the Organization’ on their own if their guardian has requested it to be so in writing. The written submission must be provided at least 2 business days in advance unless approved by SSRA Management.  

Many of the programs, classes, and events at the Summerside Residents Association are supervised by contractors and not direct employees of the Organization. Because of the contractor status of these supervisors, the Organization does not have direct controls or procedures for the release of minors to parents/ guardians enrolled in these classes, programs, or events. The supervision of minors enrolled is the sole responsibility of parents/ guardians at all times before the official start time of a class, program or event, and begins again immediately at the specified end time of the class, program or event. If a parent/ guardian would like more information on which classes, programs, or events are supervised by Summerside Residents Association staff, and which are supervised by contractors, it is their sole responsibility to ask the Organization for that information.
