I just don't understand how and why gyms do this. Where does the money go? I know it does not go to new equipment in our gym. Is our tuition not enough? Is this purely a money maker or is it necessary? Sounds like most parents feel it is unfair. So, why is it still going on. There has to be a logical explanation for gyms to warrant or require this of its parents.
i agree, this is crazy.. I do not understand how parents are ok with this. I work 2 jobs & my wife works 1. I have 2 kids 1 child in gymnastics & my gym charges us if you do not help, volunter, work or what ever they want to call it. Parents need to speak up.. I can barely afford gymnastics now I have to pay because i can't take off work to work for them.. I can see it now,, Hey boss i need off this weekend it's really important. I have to work at my kids gymnastics club otherwise I have to pay 100... You can't make this stuff up
