2025 Summer Themes, Trips and an Afternoon Opportunity at the Little Gym!

Hello Families,

We are excited to announce our schedule for the upcoming summer including weekly themes and trips! See the schedule below. Please note that while we usually try to have field trips on Thursdays and swimming on Fridays, we had to swap the swim / field trip dates for two weeks to accommodate field trip availability.

We also wanted to make sure families were aware of an afternoon opportunity offered by The Little Gym of Medway. They have an afternoon program that runs from 1:30-4pm from July 8th-August 21st. They are offering a special Sunshine Group discount! Instead of $30 per day, Sunshine Group Families can register for $20 a day as long as you enroll in at least three days – just make sure you mention The Sunshine Group when you register! The three days can be spread out across multiple themed weeks (You can either sign up for the whole themed week or pick and choose which 3 days of different themed weeks you want to attend). For more information, please see the flyer below (Please note: the special Sunshine Group pricing is not listed on the flier).

We are continuing to work on developing partnerships with local businesses and looking for community support to fund scholarships for families who cannot afford our program. If your company matches donations, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our program! Or, if you have a connection with a local business, please consider printing and bringing our donation letter to your favorite Medway businesses. We appreciate your help to spread the word around the community. Every little bit helps!

Here is the donation letter that you can share with your company or with Medway businesses.

Thank you in advance for your help!
