Great Job at the Performance

I am so proud of every athlete that performed on Saturday!  I loved watching the pride on each one of the childrens' faces as they performed their routines their very best and put their hearts into it.  Your children are amazing.  I loved the determination of Kenz to get her giants on the bar.  After she fell during the first session, she performed her beam routine with confidence and got right back up on the bars and swung her giants again in the second session!  It was so wonderful to have Graci back with our team!  We have missed her!  She is one strong young lady and a great example to all of us!  This is what gymnastics is all about!  That is why we teach and are so passionate about the sport! 

I would like to thank the community!  The support you showed us and the Brown's was amazing!  We could not provide this opportunity for the children without your support!  Thank You Star Valley! 

I am overwhelmed with all the people that helped us Saturday.  Thank you to ALL of the volunteers that helped with moving and setting up the equipment and during the performance!  I could not do this without every one of you!

Performance

Our annual performance is this Saturday, April 14th, at Star Valley High School.  This year we will be having two sessions.  The first session begins at 3:00 and the second session begins at 6:00.  Tickets will be sold at the door, $5 for an individual or $20 for a family pass.  Children 4 years old and younger are free.  There will be silent auction with proceed going towards new competition leotards.  The drawing for the quilt that we are raffling off will be at the end of the night, with all proceeds from the raffle going to the Brown Family. 

Silver Star Communications have donated a 10" Acer Laptop that has a detachable touch screen tablet that will be auctioned off for the Brown Family!!
Your gymnast needs to be at the high school ready to stretch 30 minutes prior to the start of their session.  They may wear their shorts with their leo to the performance.

We are so happy that Graci is now home!  We are trying to raise money for Graci and her family to help with their medical expenses.  We are selling raffle tickets on this handmade levi quilt.  They are $1 a ticket or 25 tickets for $20.  We will be drawing for the quilt at our performance at SVHS on April 14th.  You do not need to be present to win.  I also set up a Facebook page "April and Graci Brown Donations", anyone who would like to donate please contact Maurie Erickson at 886-9071. 

State Championships 2012

Our hearts are so broken for the Brown's and their families and the loss of one of our greatest fans.  We are praying for a speedy recovery for Graci and her mom April. 

Words cannot express how proud we are of our Team.  It was a tough weekend competing without one of our teammates.  The girls dug down deep and showed strength and courage and competed in honor of their teammate and her family.
