It was okay. It ran pretty much on time so that was good, but the the floor was like 3 feet from the parent viewing and not elevated so it made it hard to see the whole routine. My daughters team won, but as another poster mentioned there was nothing for first place, not even a medal. Only...
Biden can’t shut the country down just as Trump couldn’t force states to come off lockdown. And I wouldn’t be surprised if the NJ gyms find a way to stay open
This 100%! CP’s team just got their choreography 8 days ago, other teams at her gym have had theirs since late August but they had to reschedule twice due to outside events. They certainly haven’t done a full out yet. I just have to continually tell myself she’s learning new skills and at...
We normally get our schedule in June/July, so I totally understand your frustration! I’m just trying to be Zen about the cheer season, no easy feat I assure you;)
I’m just assuming most comps will end up being virtual, if any happen in person, great but I’m not optimistic. I’m in NJ and CP still hasn’t gotten a comp schedule yet, I’ve seen a tentative version but nothing official. At this point I’m just happy she’s in the gym and getting to do what she...
This was my daughter this year too, she was 11 then 12 on a S5 because they wanted her to fly but all of her friends were on the J5 team. It was hard because though they were a good group of kids, they were mostly 15-18 and were not remotely her peer group. She made the best of it, but is...
My son is a math major and he switched 3 of his classes to pass/fail because the online format was just not working for him, some classes just don’t translate very well online. I’m glad the school recognized it and gave them the option without penalizing them, but at the same time all those...
I’m in NJ too, and it’s simply not possible for everyone to stay home. I need food and the wait times for all groceries delivery services is too uncertain to count on. It also depends on where you are in New Jersey; north Jersey has been very hard hit, the rest of the state, especially south...
Lucky you. Today was only the second time in 5 weeks that I’ve seen toilet paper and paper towels in my Target. The Walmart I go to hasn’t had either since mid March, it’s ridiculous.
I’m sure it was, I feel like everything on the news nowadays is always spun in a way to make people afraid. I’m not saying we shouldn’t be concerned, but the constant drumbeat of fear is not a good thing. I know people that are terrified to leave their house, as if walking outside will envelope...
Our gym is currently closed through March 18th, but I’m expecting it to end up being longer, and have already asked the parents if they should cancel our comp at the end of April. I’m truly baffled that your gym is still thinking about getting bids and threatening to sit kids out if they don’t...
At my CP’s first gym she was 8(2nd grade) on a junior 2 team and yes there were freshman on the team, but the gym only had two teams; a junior 2 and a senior 3 and only about 35 athletes. I really think most gyms would rather put youth age kids together, but there are always going to be times...
I would like to know this too. My CP is currently 12 with a September birthday and on a senior 5 team this year, so the age grid very much effects her for next year. I actually don’t care if she has to be on a junior team next year but the not knowing drives me crazy!
