Registration Is Rolling In!

Mar 20, 2012   //   by erin   //   Blog  //  1 Comment
Registration is underway and excitement is in the air! We’re at an even 100 days out from the 2012 YMCA National Gymnastics Championships and we’re excited to see registration packets rolling in. As a friendly reminder, this meet is a first come first served basis for team registration. This means not all entries will be accepted if the number of competitors is too high. Last year’s event hosted 1,800 gymnasts and we will be able to accommodate that number.
Coaches — The deadline for registration is April 9th, 2012.

For questions or concerns related to registration, contact Sarah Werner at swerner@ymcamke.org.

Jan 30, 2012   //   by YMCA   //   Blog  //  No Comments

It may be cold in Milwaukee during the month of January, but planning for 2012 Nationals is heating up!

We’re proud to announce the 2012 YMCA National Gymnastics Championships title sponsor, Midwest Orthopedic Specialty Hospital, in partnership with Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare. Through the support of our title sponsor, thousands of youth and their families will come to Milwaukee and be a part of something positive that will last a lifetime!

In addition, Promolux, Inc. has been named our official Awards Sponsor. Thank you to our sponsors for their support of this national event where gymnasts will have the opportunity to gain new skills and build character in a supportive environment.

Please continue to check the Web site and blog for regular updates and new information as we spring towards the event in June!
