First off, thank you to everyone who took the time to read my last post and reply! We had a sudden, unexpected death in the family and I was unable respond as I usually would have.
I do hope you all could give me your quick opinion. My DD is currently on a noncompetitive level 3 'team' at a fairly competitive gym in our area. As I've mentioned previously, we have a couple of minor-ish concerns about our club... We have decided to stick it out through the L3 year and re-evaluate whether to stay/go at L4 tryouts.
Anyway, DD REALLY wants to go to the summer camp at her gym. Trouble is, our gym's camps happen to be THE two weeks she is unable to attend. She has VBS during the first offering and Girl Scout camp the second week.
Would it be committing treason for us to look at her attending at another gym? A couple of other gyms have weeks available that we're home for. An added bonus is that the "other gym" we were considering switching to at some point has a week that she is able to attend. It would be a double bonus - great opportunity for us to check out the gym and see what we think, and naturally, she gets to attend camp. She'd get to eat her proverbial cake.
But, I don't want this to cause trouble. Is this generally frowned upon? I considered e-mailing the team director, but I'd hate to do anything to upset her... After all, she'll be making L4 decisions in December if we decide to stay! But, I'd also hate for her to find out via the rumor mill. Not to mention, we'd have to beg off of team practice both days that week.
Thanks for your input!
