The Oskaloosa YMCA Aerials hosted home meet “Spring Fling” on Saturday April 28th. The levels ranged from Xcel Rookies level 2 & 3, bronze, silver, & gold. Only 2 other teams from Urbandale and Waterloo also participated at this half day event. This was just a fun meet for the girls and also prepared the rookies, bronze, & sliver gymnasts for the state meet that was held on May 5-6 (results & article to come). Each gymnast that competed at this event received a trophy as their award for participating. The donations received for admission at the door are going towards a new spring floor for competition and practice.
