Easter Holiday times now out for boys' elite and competitive squads - please book your sessions as soon as possible. Details available from Sue.
Next Boys' parents' meeting - Saturday 17 March at 12.30pm
SKATING TRIP
Our date for skating this year is Tuesday 27th December. Final times are still to be confirmed but are likely to be 5pm to 6pm. There is no outdoor rink in the Square this year so we have booked for the Indoor Arena - it will be decorated festively and is bigger than the outdoor one so should still be a good event!
For the meal afterwards we are going to Frankie & Benny's at Lenton (near the Showcase Cinema)..
Skating tickets are £5 per person for age 5 and over (under 5s cost TBC). Deposit for the meal is £5 per person (all ages) - this will be deducted from your final bill on the day.
Please let Sue have numbers for skating and Frankie and Benny's as soon as possible as we have to book the skating tickets and the restaurant.
BOYS' SQUAD CHRISTMAS DISPLAY
The MA squad is holding their Christmas display on Sunday 27th November at East Midlands Gymnastics Centre. Doors open at 2.30, display starts at 3pm (gymnasts need to be at the gym for 12.30 for practice - plus helpers for setting up). Tickets are £4 children, £7 adults, £18 family but tickets are discounted by £1 if you buy them before the day so get your tickets early from Liz or Sue!
Donations for the raffle will be gratefully received - please hand to one of the fundraising committee to pass to Sue in the gym. Please sign the notice board outside the gym to indicate what refreshments you can provide.
