With all the volleyball action, we must not forget about the competitive gymnastics season in which Clare is participating this fall.
This is her first year in level 6 (last compulsory level), and, bluntly, it’s been a struggle. The new skills have been tough to master and put together in a meet in front of the judges. Not to be deterred, she continues to work hard and put hours and hours of time in the gym. Next year will be better.
I finally got to attend a meet held at UW-Whitewater and was impressed by the competition. She finished 9th in the all-around and received a medal for her efforts.
