Discovery 8: Paddle boarding+ at Lindon Marina
April 18- May 12
In addition to learning how to and practicing paddle boarding and other man powered watercraft, we will spend some time getting familiar with the environment of Utah Lake at the Lindon Marina with some bird watching and plant and insect identification, slackline and relay games. In addition to swimwear all students must bring a towel and a bag to hold these objects in. Please mark everything with your student’s name. Students will come with water clothes already on (dry clothes and towel in tow). Sunscreen must be applied at home. Students are in charge of keeping track of any items they bring with them. CGA will not be held responsible for any lost items. Dress code is no bikinis for girls and regular swim trunks for boys. They will need good closed toed shoes for our out of water activities. Lindon Marina requires a waiver to be signed for each participant so make sure you get that signed for your students. (And then forward the confirmation of that signed waiver to jana.stout@canyongrove.com) Discovery is for enrolled students only so if you choose parent transportation that will be for drop off and pick up only. Parents and families are not to stay at the marina during Discovery.
INNOVATIONS AND DISCOVERY
We are so excited to announce that we are bringing back our much loved Discovery program and adding it to our Innovations program.
A bus is available to pick your student up for both Innovations and Discovery (depending on which one they are assigned to) from South Jordan, Draper and Springville and bring you to Pleasant Grove to participate in these activities.
Students will alternate between Innovations and Discovery throughout the year according to the assigned rotation listed on the chart below. You may choose to participate in the activities for that assigned session or not by how you sign up.
Students are enrolled on a first come first serve basis. We want to provide these program opportunities to all our students and we will do our best to do so. It is very important that if you do not get registered for this first session and want to attend throughout the year that you sign up for the waiting list. This will help us immensely as we can then gauge interest and numbers more accurately and make adjustments where needed for the rest of the year. Being on the waiting list will get you top priority for the second sign up.
Here is the schedule of which day of the week each location will attend Innovations or Discovery per location. We are hoping this information will help you plan your family schedule. Please note that it is subject to change depending upon student enrollment for 21/22.
Monday – Adventures-in-person
Tuesday – PG Thursday, South Jordan
Wednesday – PG Tuesday and Springville
