I’m sorry that this post is a little late, but I thought I’d end my passion blog with some interesting updates about Gymnastics Club. On Friday, we had our formal at the Atherton Hotel, and for the first time since the beginning of the school year the entire team was gathered together. Because of the variety in everyone’s schedules, it is difficult to have a practice when everyone can attend. The whole event was organized very well, thanks to our executive board, and the entire evening was classy and an overall success. The lobby of the hotel was decorated beautifully for Christmas, which made it the perfect place for taking pictures and socializing with the entire club. Also, the room our formal was in was the perfect size for all of us, and the food was a great Italian selection.
After formal, two of the seniors in our club hosted an after party, and I had the opportunity to talk to a lot of people in Gym Club who I never spoke to before. Everyone was dressed to the nines and looked really great, and of course we listened to music, hung out, and talked about other upcoming Gymnastics Club events.
Unfortunately for the guys team, they had gotten permission to have an early Saturday practice the day after formal, so many of them left either formal or the party early so they would be prepared for practice. Soon enough, both the girls and guys teams will be preparing for their next meet, which is being hosted by Ohio State University if I remember correctly. Everyone who competes is so dedicated to their sport, and because gymnastics has been a part of their lives for so long, it has become a huge aspect of their everyday lives. I’m so glad I have the experience to be a part of such a great club, and since I have joined I’ve made so many new friends.
