New Summer Fling Date: May 29

Hey Parents!

After careful consideration, we’ve decided to play it safe and move this year’s Jingkids Summer Fling – originally planned for this Saturday (May 22) – to next week (Saturday, May 29). If if rains next Saturday, the rain date will be Sunday, May 30.

While it might sound like the beginning of another wave of Covid restrictions, it’s not!

The latest cause for concern was a person from Anhui Province who changed trains in Beijing on May 10. Everyone she was in contact with during her three hour stay has been traced and is currently being monitored. Rest assured, however, none have developed symptoms.

Our new date of May 29 is more than two weeks after this case briefly passed through Beijing, so we’re confident that we’ll be 100 percent in the clear by that time.

Other than the change of date, the Summer Fling will remain the same – fun in the sun for everyone (don’t forget the sunscreen!) and summer activities providers galore, offering you the perfect chance to meet camp counselors and organizers before planning your child’s summer vacation.

What’s more, we know some of Beijing’s school communities had events planned for the 22nd, so the postponement is great for anyone who was worried about scheduling conflicts. Simply put, now more families can join in the fun!

Tickets already purchased (and won) will of course be honored on May 29.

However, if you purchased a ticket for May 22 and cannot attend the picnic on May 29, please send an email to marketing@truerun.com with the cellphone number you used to purchase your ticket(s) and you will be issued a full refund.
