Six Week Program

The 6 week programs are available from September through May. The typical program starts about the 2nd week of September, the 2nd week of January, or the 1st week of May; but a program can begin on any date the Hosting Organization requires. The 6 week programs do not run on Saturday, Sunday, or Monday of Monday holidays. Six week programs can run indoors or out.

For outdoor programs, inclement weather will cause a class to be postponed. Inclement weather during warmer months is a heavy rain, high winds (20+ mph) or electrical storms within 10 miles. During the cooler months inclement weather is if the temperature is less than 50 degrees Fahrenheit and there is any rain, or heavy rain, or high winds (20+ mph) or electrical storms within 10 miles. All dates are “made up” as soon as possible.
