TG Tumbling Camp Update
We regret to announce that the January 2022 tumbling camp has been postponed.
It was a difficult decision to make, but it was ultimately determined that offering the camp when it is safer and less restrictive for athletes and their families to travel is the best path forward.
We thank you for your support of this event and look forward to hosting you in the spring.
Questions can be directed to: dmcboyle@gymbc.org.
