3 Frequently Asked Questions WHAT IS YOUTH PROGRAMMING AT THE NAC? The Youth Plex is designed to offer programs for children ages 1 through 12. Programs are designed to appeal to all children with their individual interests in mind. Our goal is for every child to feel welcome in a safe place where he/she can participate in an activity where they are comfortable enough to be themselves. DIAPER GUIDELINE: Any child still in a diaper, must have an adult present outside the class during its entirety. Children in diapers will not be transported from Kid s Club without an adult present. WHAT TYPE OF YOUTH PROGRAM CLASSES ARE OFFERED? Gymnastics, Dance, Tae-kwon-do and Kidfit. WHEN DOES ENROLLMENT/ REGISTRATION HAPPEN? Four seasonal sessions are offered throughout the year beginning in the Fall of each year fall, winter, spring and summer sessions. Fall, winter, and spring sessions run 12 weeks. Summer session is 8 weeks. HOW DO I ENROLL MY CHILD IN YOUTH PROGRAM CLASSES? Youth Registration takes place before for each session. NAC youth family plus program members are able to register for classes at the Program Desk or online. Non-member registration must be done in person at the Program Desk at the NAC. DO I NEED A CERTAIN TYPE OF NAC MEMBERSHIP FOR MY CHILD TO PARTICIPATE IN YOUTH PROGRAMS? To achieve the best value, the plus programs option is recommended for children participating in classes.
