What camp are you going to? They should give you a packing list anyway. And don't be scared about being a 'bad gymnast'. You'll be better at some events/skills, and some people will be better than you at different events/skills. Thats life.

Uh oh... you're about to be kicked off Chalk Bucket. No 12-year-olds allowed. Please come back and join us when you're 13! But before Bog bans you, here's the list I gave to my 11-year old when she went to a 6-night gymnastics camp. At her camp, kids under 12 had their mandatory practice in the AM and kids over 12 in the afternoon, so not only were kids grouped by abilities but also by age. I think you'll find other kids at camp that are both your age and your skill level. Regardless, you will make friends and have a blast!

Good luck, have fun at camp, and see you when you're 13!

Sorry gymnastgurl. Requirements for this site are for you to be 13 years old. This is for your own saftey.

However, you have your answers, so don't worry go have fun at camp. Come back and join us when you turn 13.

You are now banned. But let's be clear, when you joined you saw that you need to be 13 to join, you gave a false date of birth (1990 no less).
