October 2025 Newsletter
Happy fall, gym families! We’re thrilled to continue our 20th fall session here at Gem City. Whether you’re returning or joining us for the first time, we’re so glad you’re here.
Here are a few reminders for the month:
- Fall tuition is due in full by October 1. You can make your payment on your parent portal, or you can stop in and pay cash or check. Late fees will be applied to any account with a balance after October 1.
- Our first Pizza Fun Night of the school year is October 24! Costume contest and pizza for the kids and date night coupons for the parents!
- We have our Christmas Online Shop open until 10/15, so place your order now! We’ve also restocked our Pro Shop and have a new shirt design just in time for fall! Plus, two shipments of leotard arrives from Jamwear and Destira styles with Halloween styles just in time for October!
We are happy to announce that we will be a drop off location for the United Way of Adams County annual toy drive, Good News of Christmas!
The bin will be dropped off in November for November and December collections. Drop off new, unopened toys for local boys and girls. Please don’t wrap these gifts.
Flipping into fall,
