I would love to know how other families handle gym travel. Does your gymnast travel with her family or her coaches and team? Does your entire family (parents and siblings) accompany the gymnast to local meets? What about for out of town meets~especially ones with interesting destinations?
We have 4 daughters involved in gymnastics at various levels. This is our 5th year involved in competitive gymnastics and the 1st year that we have not attended local meets together as a family. For meets with great destinations (like Orlando) I have tremendous guilt over excluding my non-competing daughters, so I tend to want to plan a short family vacation around the meet. However, I know that we will not be able to afford this expense every year.
