part training, part camp, all fun
Join the first annual Lake Frances Fall Adventure Preparation Camp, hosted at Lake Frances, home of the Flip Fest Summer Camp. The Fall Adventure Prep-camp is designed to be a great jumpstart to your competition season for levels 7, 8, 9 and 10. This event will help the gymnasts be more prepared and confident for the upcoming season, as well as encourage coaches to share and gain different ideas and techniques.
Gyms will arrive Friday from 4-6 p.m. and have the opportunity to train through Sunday afternoon. During the weekend a variety of coaches, nationally renowned clinicians and nationally certified judges will work with the gymnasts. Saturday, during a special testing time, all the gymnasts will have the opportunity to perform new skills, individual sequences or routines for the judges and clinicians and receive written feedback. This is an opportunity to start your season off in a positive direction with coaching and judging input from some of the top experts in our sport.
Along with the gymnastics training, teams will have the opportunity to compete and participate in a variety of team-building and camp activities throughout the weekend, including the Ropes Course. This is a chance to create some great team chemistry and memories that will carry your club into the season.
for coaches
Each gym will be able to bring one free coach for every eight gymnasts from their club. Additional coaching spots are available beyond this for $50 per coach. All housing, meals, and activities are included. Coaches from each club will coach their own students alongside the visiting clinicians, judges and guest coaches that are brought in for the camp. For the coaches, throughout the weekend there will be clinics and coaches’ roundtables that will include our guest clinicians, judges, coaches and Olympians John Macready and John Roethlisberger. National team coaches and clinicians Tom Forster and Steve Butcher will be attending both sessions. Other visitors include Olympic team coach Mary Lee Tracy, five-time Olympic gold medalist and top women’s judge in the world Nellie Kim, national team clinician Tammy Biggs, and Olympian, national team clinician, and Brevet judge Kristie Phillips. Clinicians’ schedules are tentative and subject to change; please check www.lakefrancesretreats.com for updates.
housing
Teams will be housed together on site in the Lake Frances cabins. Each team needs to bring a coach or chaperone (of the same sex) who will stay with their team in the cabin. There will be separate housing for any additional coaches. Gymnast cabins hold up to 16 campers and one chaperone. If you bring more than 16 gymnasts, you will need to bring an additional chaperone. If a team brings eight or fewer gymnasts they may be required to share a cabin with another team.
camp cost
Spaces for the camp are very limited. Entry fee for each gymnast will be $225 and will be on a first come, first serve basis. Included in this price are meals for the entire weekend for gymnasts and coaches, all camp activities, and housing for each gymnast and chaperone.
