2007 Women's Classic/Challenge  -  Battle Creek, MI
7-28-07:  A very special treat was tasted at Cereal City's Kellogg Arena for 27 members of All American Flames Gymnastix.  The 2007 Women's Classic / Challenge hosted by Branch Gymnastics brought to our state the best gymnasts in the nation.  2008 Olympic hopefuls were on-tap performing for their final chance to qualify to the 2007 Visa Championships, Aug. 15-18 in San Jose, CA.  This important International Elite-level qualifier is rarely hosted so close to our local area.  This inspirational trip encouraged our athletes who attended via demonstrations of excellent gymnastics performed at the highest level.

Congratulations to Geddert's Twistars' athletes Kamerin Moore and Jordyn Wieber (Jr Elites) on their fine performances in front of their home crowd.

Team Auction / Sleepover  -  Port Huron, MI
7-26-07:  Stuff, stuff, and more stuff was up for bid as the Lady Flames cashed in their points for stuff they wanted, stuff they needed, and stuff they certainly 'had' to have!  (let's not forget the silly stuff, too!) The fun-filled evening was made possible through many generous individuals who not only donated stuff, but also helped subdue the general chaos of trying to deliver the goods in a fair and timely manner.  Thanks to all who helped.  We had a great time and are looking forward to next year's auction!


 

NAWGJ Clinic  -  Howell, MI
7-20-07:  Gymnasts in-training for Levels 7-8 were welcomed to an informative clinic hosted by Michigan's Gymnastic Judges at Hartland Gymnastics Academy.  Neil and Patty Resnick, formerly of Flips USA in Sparks Nevada, were the Master Clinicians spotlighted for this weekend.  Neil has been a member of the National Coaching staff for many years, as well as the current head coach for Boise State University.  The clinics presented by the Resnicks were very informative and a delight to participate in.  The Friday workout for gymnasts preceded the classroom clinics for coaches and judges.


 

International Day Parade  - Port Huron, MI
7-18-07:  The deluge which tried to dampen the spirits of our gymnasts and families didn't quite bring enough water.  For the first time in the parade's 80+ year history, severe weather brought about a prompt ending to the festivities, even before it officially began.  The evening wasn't a complete washout, however, as there was ample food on-hand for consumption, and energetic bodies looking for some fun.  Turning the lemons into lemonade ended with an hilarious game of "Turkey on the Roof" between parents and their children.  Many thanks to ALL the volunteers who offered their talents and services for what would have been an impressive appearance.  We'll try it again next year!

Cassell Camp  - Muskegon, MI
7-13-07:  A small contingent of the Lady Flames compulsory gymnasts traveled with coaches Melinda and Joe Scheible to Michigan's "left coast" for a fun summer camp hosted by Cassell Gymnastics.  The Scheible's participated as clinicians for the 7th consecutive year.  Cassell's camp consists of 3 workout days and a beach party.  This was a great opportunity for our kids to meet other gymnasts, coaches and judges, in a very nice area for recreation.
