Location

The UTown@UBC Youth Fit program will take place at difference facilities, depending on the activity. The meeting and pick up location for each session will be communicated well in advance to parents and participants. Participants will be responsible to coordinate their own transportation to each session.

Program arrival and departure procedures

All sessions will begin promptly at the scheduled time and location. Participants are expected to arrive on time and ready to participate. Youth Fit staff and volunteers will be at the program location for the scheduled session time. There will be no supervision available before or after the scheduled program times.

Weather Policy

All UTown@UBC Youth Fit sessions will operate rain or shine.  Youth should come to the sessions prepared for rainy and cold weather and should be wearing appropriate clothing, footwear and other gear. The UTown@UBC Youth Fit Program reserves the right to cancel scheduled activities and substitute weather-appropriate activities in the event of unfavorable weather.  This may also include moving to a different location.

If a parent needs to find the Youth Fit group during programming hours they should phone the Youth Fit phone number provided to you.

Absenteeism Notification

It is the responsibility of the participant to notify UTown@UBC Youth Fit Program staff if he/she is going to be absent for any portion of the program. Participants, and parents/guardians, can do this by phoning the UTown@UBC Youth Fit number provided to you or e-mailing UTown@UBC Youth Fit at youth.fit@ubc.ca. Due to staffing limitation, there will be no notification provided to parents if a child does not show up at the beginning of a session.

Filing a Complaint

Complaints against Youth Fit participants, other parents or program staff should be brought to the attention of the UTown@UBC Youth Fit Program Coordinator. Complaints will be dealt with accordingly.
