Wildcard Gymnastics Team News

Friday, Dec 1st – We can get into the gym at Vincent by 6:30 p.m. so ANYONE/EVERYONE that is available to help set up the equipment PLEASE plan to attend.  The more people we have, the sooner we can be out of there!  We could feasibly have it done by 9:00 p.m.!

Optional gymnasts and Level 2s – You will NOT have practice this Friday – so if there are people available to help at 4:30 p.m. – We can start decorating and getting the concessions/awards areas ready. Optionals – you can plan to go straight to Vincent!

Any gymnast not competing early Saturday morning can plan to help out Friday night. Older gymnasts may get dropped off/picked up to work but gymnasts under the age of 9, should be accompanied by a parent, unless on the Optional team. Xcel, Gold Bugs, Fast Track and Boys parents – we would greatly appreciate your help as well! If you know anyone needing service hours, bring them along too.  Also, Older gymnasts (9 and up) can be dropped off to work this weekend but please remember, you are to be working – not just running around.

Friday, Dec 1st – Only competing Level 3s & 4s 4:30-7:00 p.m.

Good Luck at State and Clash of the Titans
There will be open gym (I believe).

* We will have a celebratory State Dinner AFTER the State Meets. Typically, we offer a pre-State Dinner, but with all the craziness hosting State, we thought this would be best done AFTER the State Meets. Watch for more info coming soon.

Holiday Schedule and January Schedule changes – should be out after State.

Thanks for all your help.  If you STILL haven’t signed up for something or have suddenly found extra time on your hands, feel free to get in touch with Julia or Amy or Ben.

Count down to show time begins!

Several families have not signed up for any volunteering yet and we have a large number of open spots. Assigning spots has been put off as long as possible. Starting tomorrow, any family not signed up to volunteer at all and has not made other arrangements with Julia will be assigned a spot.

We need people to help cook and freeze taco meat, make puppy chow and rice crispy treats, bring coolers, slow cookers, labels medals, put together shout outs, etc. please email Julia at juliafs@wildcard-gymnastics.com if you are able to help during the day at all or can cook items at home (we provide all ingredients).

Don’t forget to invite anyone that needs service hours to help set up and tear down!

Current order numbers are very low. Please get your orders in ASAP!

We are almost finished with the final qualifying meet of the season and that means all clubs have their entries due tomorrow at the latest. Our current number of athletes is sitting right around 775, and  – believe it or not – that is down in numbers from last year. With the wrap up of the compulsory qualifying season, however, we could get a ton more entries! That means certain things need to be kept in mind as we charge forward toward the actual meet day.

-We need crock pots, power strips, and extension cords! Please donate or offer to cook and transport certain concessions items that need to be kept hot during the day. Label all your items with your name on a tape label so it can be returned accurately. Food is provided to you. We just need it cooked and temperature maintained!

-Sign-up Genius volunteer schedule is an estimated timeline. Those exact time slots could fluctuate a bit.

-You all will receive a final schedule Tuesday……at the same time every other club in the state receives the final schedule.

-There are plenty of volunteer spots open. Please fill them with someone to represent your family. If we have open spots and families that have yet to participate, following the release of the official schedule Tuesday, I will have to go through and assign those spots.

-In case you forgot, the Concessions/ Hospitality buy-in will be running this week if it is not paid.

-There are many tasks to assist with if you want to help out even more. Just ask/ email Julia with any questions, concerns, or comments.

Thanks for all of your support while we undertake this big event!
