    Parents Summer Camp! IGI? UIC?

    We are considering sending DD to camp this summer if she can find a buddy to go (working on it). She'll have just turned 11 and is training level 7. Based on geography (not ready to have her too far away yet), we're primarily considering either IGI or UIC. Any experiences with either of them out...

    WAG Summer gymnastics camps costs?

    OK, this is completely out of curiosity since I don't think we'd do any camps quite yet. I was looking at the camps in the USA Gymnastics magazine and noticed the Karolyi's camp is like 1/2 the price of the others! I must be missing something...I would think if anything it would be more...

    WAG What's the team practice schedule in the summer?

    My daughter started recreational classes last summer, and she's doing really well. We've been told it's likely she'll make the team when they do evaluations later this spring. She's super excited. Our gym has the practice schedules posted for teams, but the effective date is right when school...

    WAG Summer College Camps

    I may be a bit premature for next summer, but I am a planner. My girls have attended IGC for a few summers and have enjoyed it immensely. However, now that they are a bit older and both have big dreams of competing in college, I would like to send them to a college camp this summer (they will be...

    WAG Best gymnastics camp for the summer?

    Hey fellow gym moms, I was wondering if you have any recommendations on summer gymnastics camps for an optional gymnast. My DD will be competing Level 8 at the start of the 2015 season.

    Parents Summer Camps 2015

    Hello fellow gymnastics moms & dads, Our daughter went to flip fest last year and had a blast, the problem, IMHO, is that 1 week is just short of them really getting what the need out of such a camp. But two weeks is a lot of $$. Shoot one week at flip fest was a lot of $$$$.. With that said...

    Parents Summer break might break me

    DD (almost 6) is finishing up at her current gym, but will have 3 whole weeks before she starts at her new gym. I'm pretty sure I (and quite possibly my furniture) won't be able to handle it. As it is now, with gym two days a week, her time at home is spent doing vaults over the love seat...

    Parents Summer Competitive camps

    My daughter is level 8 and has never been at gym camps. She is asking to go but at her level I don't know of any that could expose her to some new, fun skills while conditioning her well? If that exists? I have read so many posts on recreational camps but what about more serious camps? Anything...

    WAG Summer schedules - parents got angry

    We posted our summer schedule recently. One particular group of mine will practice 8-10 am M, T, Th. I just got some upsetting feedback from parents. They are horrified and they said they don't want the kids to practice that early. We really don't have any options because we have so many groups...

    WAG Questions for anyone who has been to Karolyi's summer camp

    Hi all, I'm not looking for "advice" about the camp, as our gym is going as a group, and DD is registered. I've got the "I've never been there before" questions. a) did you pack a leo for every day? b) did you pack a lot of fun clothes? did you need them all? c) we were told they have...
