Dear Amy, Many groups schedule their year of activities to correspond with a school year format. Others operate on a year-round basis. Some take the summer months to concentrate primarily on learning recreational skills as a sort of change of pace. Although many groups seem to run on a school year format, many groups also start all year along and many groups continue right through the summer.
Most groups welcome new members at any time of year.
A family club can start with any age and at any time. You can certainly begin now with your daughter.
