Dear Friends and Family,

I love to be upside down and so do 180 other kids in my community! My coaches have given me an upside down challenge! I will test my upside down skills by counting the seconds I can be upside down in a headstand or handstand in a 10 minute timeframe!

This event raises money for the Sitka Gymnastics Scholarship fund so all kids can continue flipping in our gym. Gymnastics has had a huge impact on the health of Sitka kids! The scholarship fund helps families who are in financial need by partially covering tuition costs. This in turn, helps my gym to be able to continue to provide gymnastics classes for our community!

I would really appreciate your help and no amount is too small!

Thanks in advance for your support!

About this fundraiser:

Sitka Gymnastics Academy believes that gymnastics should be accessible to all, regardless of financial situation.Although we do our best to keep our prices as low as possible, there are many families who need help with tuition in our small, isolated, and expensive island town. As a private facility, we receive no government funding to support our gymnastics program. We therefore rely on tuition to cover all overhead costs and fundraise to support the tuition of the families in financial need.

We are asking friends and family from across the USA to help support our scholarship fund by pledging a flat amount or per second handstand/headstand is held within a 10 minute timeframe.

Over the past 5 years SGA has made kids stronger, more flexible, and more confident. Our ultimate goal is to promote healthy and determined individuals who are ready to conquer the world and its challenges as they enter adulthood. Gymnastics is far more than a sport, it gives children the tools to learn to overcome challenges and work through frustrations. By working hard and persevering, gymnasts learn what it takes to reach ultimate goals. They learn that these goals take time and patience. Our program serves nearly 180 Sitka Youth.

Please support our fundraiser by pledging funds to keep kids doing what they love doing, being upside down! No amount is too small!
