I am so excited! Alex is competing in the Magical Classic this year in Florida and I just got a sweet deal on a vacation package!! Flight, Car, Hotel, and 3 days at Universal Studios for only $500.00 a person (7 nights). I can't wait!
And the best part is Alex's 1st babysitter now lives in...
Our gym is going to the Manhattan Classic for the first time in Feb. I was just looking at the meet schedule and it is a HUGE meet! Takes place in 3 different gyms (rooms) with multiple sessions of the same levels at the same time!
If you've gone, is it fun for the girls or does it seem more...
I have searched the internet but cannot find prior years' schedules. The meet is Friday - Sunday, but for the purposes of booking flights etc. it would be good to know how early they usually start on Friday. i.e. do they start from morning or only from afternoon/evening? I am going on the...
My DD's Prep Op (X-Cel) and Level 7 team are competing in this meet in February. Is anyone else from CB going to be there?
I for one am very excited to leave the cold weather in Missouri for a few days of sunshine and beachtime in Feb!! (the meet is secondary IMO LOL!!!)
The Level 7 team...

Apparently Shawn Johnson is competing again! There was an article published in my local Iowan newspaper that I thought I'd share with you all. Gems include, "Johnson's coach, Liang Chow, expressed skepticism about her return.."
Ms. Johnson also talks like a teenager: "I remember the first...
Our gym is putting together the meets we will attend (levels 5-8) this year. Parents would like to suggest 1 meet for the team to attend. We are thinking of this one. Anyone have an opinion on it? is it worth it? the cost is kinda high(L3-L6 $100; L7-Elite $110 plus team fee). Whats the...
Our gym is thinking about taking the level 4s (my DDs team) this year to the Presidential Classic in Orlando. My personal opinion on this is that it is going to be a huge waste of money. I will have a 5 month old baby in February (he's due in Sept) and my husband will be working, so he won't...
One big question I have had on my mind for a couple of years now. Do we have enough people on this website with enough sway at their clubs to do this meet?
We are talking about doing a large meet (convention center) right off the bat. If we run a large meet and get 300 athletes we are...
I have been thinking about running a meet for quite some time now. I really didn't know where to begin before...didn't know if it was a possibility...didn't know if it would ever happen.
Now I've helped run several big competitions (1,000+ invitationals, compulsory and optional state meets...
Is anyone going there this year? Has anyone been in the past? Is it a good meet, in your opinion? As in, is it competitive and well-run? Did your daughter enjoy going to this meet? Was is worth the travel, expense, and time? Will you/are you going back? Just wondering, since this is a...
It's that time again, and I hate to ask, but my DGD certainly needs the good luck fairies to send her some lovin' for her meet tomorrow evening. She is struggling with both bars and beam and has not received great scores this year. She totally scratched beam for the first two meets and only...
I just had to give a shout out to our gyms Level 7 team!!! They placed 6th out of 22 teams at the Magical Classic Gymnastics Meet!! My DD Alex is level 5 so she can't wait till she is able to go to Florida to compete (they only took the Level 7's this year)!! Way To Go GT !!!!!
Deadline was December 11, 2010....they FINALLY posted preliminary schedules last Friday night (Jan. 21, 2011)...booked our flight Saturday morning (3 tickets, $220 each)...arriving Friday, Feb. 18-mid-day for a competition Friday night....leaving Sunday at 5 PM...seems like enough time...
It was a great meet. Well organized and the girls had lots of fun. And a Leo given to all at the end. I think that was thier favorite part LOL.
There were some really GOOD teams there!! they must be in the gym 40 hours a week!!
there were gymnasts there getting 9.5 - 9.7 they were awsome...
Just got back from Em's second meet of the season, and I'm happy to say she had a great meet. She was able to compete beam this meet along with bars and vault, we are hoping her leg will be strong enough to do floor by the middle of February - she still does not have enough "punch" to make her...
The Woga Classic is one of the meets in our meet schedule. Everyone is encouraged to participate (L4 and up). My DD is only a L6 and may be a L7 by then. I am leaning towards not letting my DD compete but my husband feels it is a good experience and wants her to compete. I do see how much fun...
Well, I was only able to make it through half of the first session of juniors before I was told to put my camera away. So here is what I was able to get.
