An amazing effort to raise funds by Club gymnasts'

 When a gymnast wants something - really badly - it is amazing just how far they will go  to achieve their goal.

 Such was the scene over the weekend of 19 & 20 June at Sainsbury's Savacentre in  Sydenham, London - where a group of gymnasts' from the Club packed bags for  shoppers in return for a donation.

 The effort was to raise much needed funds in support of their forthcoming trip to an  International Invitational Gymnastics Competition in Malta.

 The girls gave up their valuable free time over the two days and I am delighted to say  that their efforts were not in vain as a truly fantastic sum of money was raised.

 Below is a picture of the girls taken as they joined together in readiness for their  incredible effort.

 The Club would like to thank Sainsbury's for allowing the girls' this opportunity; their  parents for allowing them to do it and for chaperone duty; all the shoppers for their  generosity - and last but not least - the  girls for their amazing display of stamina and  wonderful team spirit over the entire two days. Once again, you did yourselves, your  families and the Club proud by presenting  yourselves in such a mature and positive  way. Very well done!

The girls' prepare for the onslaught!.
