September Recap

Hey Woodward friends and family,
Hope everyone is doing well. It has been just over a month since summer camp 'doing fine in 09' ended. It has seriously taken me that entire month to accept the fact that new smiling faces will not be arriving every Sunday. It's so strange, I was really bummed. Camp is just not camp with YOU [the camper], promise. But we stayed busy, of course.

But first, before I forget:
Please answer this ONE questions for the Woodward Newsletter, VAULT

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE MEMORY FROM CAMP IN 2009?


Thank you.
Now back to business:

Summer Camp 'doing fine in 09' was pretty much my favorite summer. It was amazing, so many new faces and old faces and everyone just seemed so happy and stoked to BE at camp. I loved it.

I'll give you a little teaser of what has happened since camp ended but not too much since they will be in the Woodward newsletter, VAULT, coming out soon...

The first weekend after camp, we had the PC Magic All-Star Cheerleading team and their coaches, which was over 200 people. It felt like camp but without the action sport athletes. It was a ton of fun; there was swimming, canteen fun, and lots of cheerleading.

The second weekend we had the Region 2 T&T Training Camp, with over 230 athletes and coaches. We had bowling, canteen fun [RUSTY SLUSHIES!], and of course, where Foam-Tag started at Woodward West, a FOAM TAG tournament with Andy and the Gym Jerks, who won.. of course :]

The next weekend we had the Region 1 Boys Select Team and CSU Fullerton Women's Gymnastics Team, followed by the UCLA Women's Gymnastics Team, and a gym train-away with KT's All-Star Gymnastics and Cheer Team.

Busy, right?

This past weekend, which was the FIRST weekend where we didn't have a gym event, I went to Las Vegas to attend the Final Selection competition at the Cashman Center for T&T. The top athletes in Double Mini, Trampoline, and Rod Floor [power tumbling] qualified for the Worlds, in Russia. It was amazing to watch and I left some Woodward West brochures at the meet. It was so cool to see familiar faces; I'm pretty sure it's my favorite thing about my job. I love seeing campers who remember me and are actually excited to see. There is nothing better.
Hands down.

As you can see, we have been busy. Serious busy, but I love it.

I will always Myspace Blog on Wednesdays [myspace.com/woodwardwestgymnastics] but look for daily updates on this BLOG or twitter.com/woodwardwest


Love,
Linnea
