Beginning of a new gym!






It has all happened so fast! In a little over a month, a 25 year old gymnastics gym has gotten new owners, a new name, and now the start of a new facility! Today you can see the beginning of work on the site that will soon be 360 Gymnastics new home. Coach Ryan, along with Mark Heuett General Contracting, began the process of getting the site ready to build on. Today this included cutting down trees on site (Coach Ryan is the one in the orange vest). The existing pole building will be moved by Monday, and you will see dirt begin to move next week! Check back for updated information, or drive by 15th & Poplar to check the progress!









The foam pit is the first thing the crew has to do...

Update: June 6, 2008 The pit is completed as well as the footings! We are almost ready to begin laying the foundation!

As a family member of one of the girls on the competitive team, I just want to say how great I think it is that they will be given the opportunity to really progress their skills with all the resources this new gym will provide. As great as the old gym was for so long, I think this will really be a shot of adreneline to the whole valley-not just for competitive gymnasts, but for all kids. Whether it's gymnastics lessons, cheerleading classes, birthday parties, etc., this place will provide something that is sorely missing in the L-C valley. It is reminisicent of when the water park opened a few years ago - something that was greatly desired, but was long overdue in coming to fruition. I have nothing but support and encouragement for the new owners as they try to open up this facility that will cater to the hopes, dreams, and desires of kids all around the area. I can't imagine a destination where kids would have more fun. Thanks for taking the chance for the kids - the valley wil be a better place because of it!

Well said, "payner" I couldn't agree more. I drove by today (Monday), the shed is gone and they're moving dirt.
