Thanks for all your hard work with the Dockhounds, Milkmen and Parades! We know this is a lot of extra commitment and we appreciate all you do! Because we don’t have a booster club, most of our advertising is word of mouth and doing shows or fundraisers – so please continue to help with these events! This is what helps keep our costs down! Thanks again. We are looking forward to an Admirals Game performance and our Trunk or Treat! Please see the previous post to help with the Trunk or Treat!

Competition Schedule – We are working very hard to not make many changes to the meet schedule that was already posted – but many of the meets we had planned to do are already full. We are waiting to see if the gyms will open up more spots but as of right now, we know that Oct 5-6 will not be at Cream City (Oak Creek). We are trying to reschedule it to Capital Gymnastics in Verona that same weekend. The Salto meet Oct 19-20 is also full – we are looking for a replacement. As of right now – we are booked for Air force in Green Bay on November 16-17. We apologize for any inconvenience. The meets filled a lot quicker than in past years! This means we may have to start registering much earlier next year!!

• New Level 2 parents – many of gymnasts continue to compete during the AAU Season/Winter – not only is it great experience but provides more opportunity to perfect skills and routines and reminds gymnasts of what we work so hard for. The meets with * above have both USAG and AAU sessions. Our Level 6 and up gymnasts will compete in both. Most of the time in the Winter we focus only on AAU for Levels 2-5 but there may be opportunities to do USAG. Some Level 2s will move directly to Level 3 for the AAU Season. This is often an opportunity to “test out” the new level and see how the gymnast does before competing USAG in Fall. If you have questions, talk to Amy or Kate at the front desk. IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you compete the Winter Season (plus AAU has State, Regionals and Nationals) – so it is quite climactic for the gymnasts!
