Discover Upcoming CAGIS Virtual Events
CAGIS works hard to create a safe online environment for participants. Adult supervision is always required for youth attending CAGIS Virtual sessions.
Upcoming events are usually posted at least one month in advance. Members will have access to event sign up links before the general public. We expect to always have enough space for all sign ups. However, in the event of a very popular event, spaces will go on a first-come-first-served basis with others added to a waiting list. Registration deadline is 1 hour prior to start of the event. The schedule is subject to change, pending changes in host availability.
