at the Santa Barbara Center

Thanks to Atlantaic Aviation and their 2016 year-end donation of new furniture for the Kinderfun classroom at the Santa Barbara Center. The $2,500 donation purchased 32 new chairs and six new tables, and a "cool" new area rug.

The previous furniture was outdated and mismatched.

The girls loved their new rug and new matching tables and chairs.

Our Annual Holiday Showcase was held in December, 2016. The gymnasts worked on routines for several weeks to prepare to perform for family and friends. Gymnasts received pictures, medals, and goody bags for their wonderful effort.
To wrap up the year, we held a recognition banquet and sleepover for our team gymnasts (one of their favorite events of the year!) After the festivities, the gymnasts slumbered in the gym for movies, games, treats, and a white elephant gift exchange.
We are looking forward to a fun and successful 2017!
