Summer Refresh!

We’re getting back into the swing of things after a brief summer break.

Summer classes are now in session and we’re pumped! This is a great time of year for kids unfamiliar with gymnastics and tumbling to give it try! Summer is also a time that’s pivotal for established gymnasts and tumblers to learn new skills and routines.

Before we took our brief summer break, Gem City hosted the AAU Illinois State Trampoline & Tumbling Championship. It was a great time and our kids did an awesome job! We want to say a big Thank You to all the athletes, gyms, volunteers, and employees for making the meet a big success! We are now looking forward to the AAU Junior Olympic Games in Des Moines, Iowa, in July! Below you can find individual placements and scores.

Start planning now for tan lines, popsicles, and summer classes!

diamondBefore we know it the sweet heat of summer will take hold. This means some summer season favorites of Gem City staff will soon be here. These favorites include deep tans (guess that staff member!?), baseball, popsicles, never wearing shoes, and summer classes.

Of course, summer classes are Gem City’s favorite summer thing and as luck would have it—drum roll please— registration for summer classes begins today, Monday, April 14! Check out our classes below or here too.

The office opens at 9:30 am on Mondays and Friday and at 12:30 pm Tuesday through Thursday. We can’t wait to see you this summer!
