More Optional State and Spring Championship highlights next month.

Evaluations

Gym-wide evaluations will be conducted from April 28 through May 12. Each student will receive a written evaluation, so they know if they are ready to move up or what skills to work. Please be sure your gymnast attends their regular class, as written evaluations will only be done during this time. Students that progress to the next level may schedule their new class for the summer session. The summer class times will remain the same this year, so students will only have to change classes if they move up.

Spring Fling Class Meet

Annual Spring Fling class meet will be held on Saturday May 5th.  Our gymnasts will be showing off their skills and routines they learned in class to friends and family. All gymnasts will receive ribbons, a medal and a special gist designed just for this competition.

 

May Back Handspring Clinics

April Back Handspring clinic and "Bring a Friend to Open Gym" will be held on Saturday, May 19. Students may bring friends to the gym with a signed waiver and then stay for the tumbling clinic afterwards. Three hours of gymnastics fun for only $15!!

Yearly Registration Fee

Yearly registration fee of $45.00 is now due for all Desert Lights students. This must be paid for gymnasts to be on the floor as of May 1. Please be sure that yours is current.
