    DD is 8, planning to compete L5 in the fall at a top gym in a competitive state. She has expressed interest in joining her non-gym sister for 2 weeks at a traditional sleep-away camp.

    Parents Summer schedule and eating

    Our girls are use to working 3 hrs in the gym with quick water breaks in between. In the summer we do 4hrs. What is your schedule and do your coaches give quick breaks or one big break for hydration and snack.
