Important Drop-In Information:In an effort to provide quality and fun activities in a safe, adult-led environment, it will now be mandatory for all parents or legal guardians to register their young person for their first
Friday Night Drop-In (includes Covington and the Sportsplex). Any young person dropped off without a parent or legal guardian registering them will not be allowed to stay on the
premises.
There is a need of 10 adults per night at the Sportsplex’s Friday Night Drop-In and three adults at Covington’s Fun Night Drop-In. There will be a volunteer calendar at each Drop-In
for parents and legal guardians to sign-up to chaperone. You will be called during the week of your commitment as a reminder.
It is necessary that the minimum number of parent chaperones be met before noon on Thurs-day to have a Drop-In the next night. Friday Night Drop-In will be cancelled any week that the
minimum number of chaperones is not met.
