Hello Gymnastics Club members! Welcome to the official monthly Club newsletter, a part of the Executive Board's new initiative to improve the dissemination and transparency of information between the Club's leadership and the general membership. We're debuting a new Announcements section, where we'll include any relevant announcements that apply to the entire membership of the club. If you have any questions or concerns regarding these newsletters, or if you'd like certain content or information to be featured in our next newsletter, you can email gymclub@umn.edu.
Announcements
Men’s structured practices have been held during Monday practices in Cooke from 6-8pm. Chris Babbert, our men’s team captain, has been offering this time to anyone who is interested in learning and developing skills on the men’s events.
The Officer Board proudly presented the first ever equipment reimbursement opportunity for its members this summer and were able to provide financial assistance to ten individuals. As a Board, we want to ensure that our members have the support they need to continue their involvement in the sport we all love. After many discussions, we decided that providing this financial assistance to members would allow them to perhaps try an event that they previously did not have the means to try or more safely and healthily train an event that they might already be working on. If you have any questions about this process, please feel free to message a Board member or fill out the feedback survey in the following paragraph.
After receiving feedback at our latest competitor meeting, the Gymnastics Club Executive Board will be opening a permanent suggestions "box", which will be hosted via Google Forms. The form is completely anonymous, although you are given the option to include your name and contact information if you'd like a board member to reach out to you regarding your feedback. If you have any suggestions or critiques regarding how we operate the club, or if you just want to chat with us, feel free to drop us a note here.
As always, if you’re interested in learning more about the decisions and conversations that come up during Officer Board Meetings, feel free to attend one or message an officer with a topic you’d like discussed. We are here to ensure the success of this Club and love hearing input from our membership.

Check out some action shots of our campers as they enjoy the wonderful Willow River Falls during our Annual Gym Club Camping Adventure! Our campers endured harsh conditions like some flooded tents and wicked winds, but managed to keep their spirits high!
