Cedar Valley SAHM's Club

Behavior Policy                                                                                                                                                               

 We want our events to be enjoyable for everyone.  Of course, all children have their difficult times and we all understand that.  We do ask that you keep an eye on your children at all times to make sure they are behaving appropriately.  Please step in and stop any inappropriate behavior.

Sick Policy

We want your child to be involved in our activities as much as possible.  However, for the protection of others, please keep your child home if they are showing signs of sickness.  Some of these signs include: fever or vomiting within the last 24 hours, severe cough, sore throat or colored discharge from nose or eyes, nausea, diarrhea, chills or simply if they just aren't acting right.  If in doubt, please keep them home.

Non Member Children at Functions

SAHM's Club is a club for all mothers and children.  We welcome non members and their children to any public event- a park, Chuck E Cheese, etc.  We are also excited to welcome perspective members and their children to monthly meetings.  We ask that only members and their children attend playgroups at people's home for liability reasons.

Food Allergies

There are some severe food allergies present in some children in our group.  We all want to be respectful of their health so we ask that you practice caution when snacks are involved in activities.  If you are providing a snack please ask if there are any food allergies in the group and help to make sure there isn't any sharing of snacks.

E-mail Courtesy

All members are encouraged to be judicious in the amount of e-mails sent out to the group.  Of course all are encouraged to reach out to fellow members when you have questions about the club, parenting issues, or information that could benefit all members of the group.  If you have other e-mails that do not pertain to the club or other related issues, we ask that you send it just to those people that you know would be interested.   Please do not use SAHM's club email lists for solicitations.

Liability

Safety is always a number one priority, but we know accidents do happen.  Because events are held at people's homes and in  public places, we ask all members to agree to the following liability statement to release responsibility from the person in charge of the event:

   "I understand that my participation and the  participation of any members of my family in any SAHM's Club activity or program is completely voluntary.  I give my permission for any member of my family to join in these activities or programs.  My family shall hold all responsibility or liability for any accidents, illness, and /or injury that occurs during any SAHM's Club function or program.  I accept the final responsibility for my safety and that of my family."
