This was my third year coaching the Mountain Shadows Camp in Okotoks, Alberta, Canada. The club is owned by Jim McLuskey, a legend of gymnastics in my region, the first man to hire me as a coach back in the 1970s.
The most unusual aspect of this camp is that girls as young as age 7 spend 5 nights in sequence living and training in the gym. This is the first time away from parents for some of the kids.
The camp is an unforgettable experience in the life of a young girl. I recommend it.
