Kimberley Gymnastics hosted 188 athletes at its annual season end Coconut Cup meet at McKim School May 28-29.

Athletes came from Golden, Radium Hot Springs, Invermere, Cranbrook, Trail, Nelson, Castlegar, and Kimberley.

Local vendors from the community supported the event with a local vendor market in the lobby. International students volunteered to help with concession, and some worked at judges tables during the meet. Many local businesses sponsored the event with cash donations, gifts, and gift baskets.

Club volunteers, athletes, and staff pulled together to prepare food, plan and move the gym to McKim School, set up the equipment on Friday, and do it all again in reverse to put the gym back together on Sunday – a tremendous show of dedication to the club and to the athletes.

The club will be finishing up its Spring Session and getting ready for Summer Camps starting July 4!
