I know nothing at all about the AmeriKids program in the USA nor Mike Stanner, National Chairman.
The website states:
AmeriKids now has registered 21,700+ athletes and over 90 clubs from 25 different states.
Looks like one of the major reasons to join is a savings on insurance cost.
The organization hosts their own National Gymnastics Championship on June 13-15, 2008 at VETs auditorium in Des Moines Iowa.
Leave a comment if you have experience with the program. More choices for participants is a good thing, so long as the alternative is safe and well managed.
