Personal Items
We have plenty of equipment and activities to keep your child busy. Please do not allow any toys, video games, electronic tablets or cell phones to accompany your child. This eliminates fights, theft and/or lost items that we cannot be responsible for and will not reimburse. Personal space is important for every child. Our programs will have a designated place for your child to store their backpacks, lunch boxes and other items that they bring to the program with them.
What To Leave At Home
The following items are not permitted at BASE. Children should not bring any item to program that would cause their feelings to be hurt if it was lost, broken or stolen. Any prohibited items that are brought to BASE will be stored in the child’s backpack for the remainder of the day with their belongings. The Tampa Y is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
• Reading glasses, sunglasses, lunchboxes, backpacks
• Toys or games including trading cards (magic cards, baseball cards, Pokémon cards)
