    Summer Fun - Musical Theatre Camp - Joseph :)

    This is a bit off topic but wanted to share anyway. DD had SO MUCH FUN doing this musical theatre camp! They did Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and it ran for three weeks and on the last two nights, they did two performances. Here are a few clips from what I was able to videotape...

    TOPS National Camp and Developmental Camps

    Does anyone have any knowledge/experience, personal or otherwise, on the significant benefits of going to the TOPS camp and the developmental camps? Making it to national testing and eventually the TOPS camp gives recognition to the gymnast and the gym; the gymnasts gets to see their picture in...

    Rising Stars Training Camp?

    Has anyone gone to the Rising Stars Training Camp in the past? We got a note that it will be held in our region in September and it is $95. It's almost a 2 hour drive for us and I wonder if it is worth going. It says the guest clinician is Tammy Biggs though I don't actually know who that is...

    Summer Camps?

    Hi there, I was just wondering what gymnastics summer camps are the best ones out there? I know of Flip Fest, Woodward and IGC. But what ones do you recomend going to? My DD's want to go to a gym camp next year, but I have no clue where to send them! I want them to be as comfortable as possible...

    Parents picked up at camp last night

    Well we picked her up last night and she was beaming. She couldn't stop talking the whole ride home, all through dinner until she went to bed. So I would say she loved this camp. Guess we found a new camp for her to go to instead of the one we use to go to. It's only 45 min from the house so...

    Parents Camps - other than the biggies

    I'm interested in your thoughts on smaller camps other than the obvious ones that run all summer (Not Flip Fest, Woodward, IGC, etc). Sleep away or day camps, either one. What did you like, what did your gymmie like?! My dd loves Shawn Johnson so I tried to see if Chow's has a summer camp but...

    Difference between class and camp

    Let me preface by saying that I am NOT calling my daughter's coach to the carpet. This is not an indictment on her professional judgment or ability. I love our gym and the coaches are wonderful. This is a not understanding and therefore curious question..... At gym, Bella has been spotted on...

    Parents Camp Day 2 down...minor set back

    Well two things happened yesterday. 1) DD jammed her ring finger on the vault and couldn't practice bars :(. The one element she should be concentrating on to get that kip!! Maybe today...at least that is what I keep telling myself. 2) She, and her other level mates, were pretty upset that...

    Parents Camp Day 1 down...and a few questions...

    DD called last night...I honestly find I can't sleep till I hear from her!! They learned half on half off of the vault table!! They wouldn't even let them valut off the table at her gym so I am so proud of her. This leads me to a couple of questions maybe someone can answer. 1) It seems like...

    Opinions on if I should attend this camp please?

    So, I've been doing gymnastics for about a year, and I LOVE it. But I want to compete next year, so I'll need some more skills over the summer. I found this camp that goes for 7 weeks, is 3 days a week, 1 1/2 hours a day. I thought this was perfect, and it was only $35/week! However, I went on...

    Parents Anyone else send their kid(s) off to camp this week?

    Two kids, two camps, opposite directions (of course), both dropped off safe and sound. Mom's a little sad though. Funny, because when my husband takes them to visit his folks (sometimes for 2 weeks at a time) or they're with my mom, or whatever, I enjoy the quiet house that doesn't get messy...

    Parents Camp opinion for those who asked about younger gymnasts before

    I remember a few camp thread wondering when the right time is, is it worth it etc. Now that DD just finished a week of camp, I thought I'd share my opinion and the problems DD encountered. DD did 28.5 hours over 4 days. That is the actual time spent in the gym practicing. It does not...

    Do kids trade pins etc. at camps?

    My daughter is going to IGC in July and she is from Canada. Do kids bring things to trade or give to other kids in their cabins from where they are from. I know when we travelled for ball tournaments we would trade or give pins from our province with other teams etc. I don;t want to not...

    What do you pack for camp?

    I loved our list of "What should new team parents know" and am thinking about compiling it. I would love to give it to our HC but I'm never sure when I will be stepping on toes. Maybe I'll give it to our parents committee secretary and let her do with it what she will. Anyway, with Kathy's...
