USA
Gymnastics is preparing to "Turn the World Upside Down" on National Gymnastics
Day, Saturday, September 22, 2012. In conjunction with our National Gymnastics
Day efforts, the USA Gymnastics Fitness Program is partnering with First Lady
Michelle Obama's Let's Move! initiative to help get more than a million
young people involved in sports.
Last
year, the theme was handstands, but this year, anything goes. Get coaches,
friends, classmates and parents involved by doing a flip, roll, cartwheel, back
hip circle, handstand, flip into the pit, etc.; the possibilities are endless.
Please take a picture of your “upside down” activity, and share it on the
USA
Gymnastics
Facebook page, along with how many participated in the activity, and your city
and state to join in on the fun. After the event concludes, we will announce
the number of nationwide participants on
www.usagym.org,
Facebook and Twitter!
USA
Gymnastics is also teaming up with the Children's Miracle Network, which
benefits children battling illnesses in the local communities across the nation,
to raise awareness and donations for this amazing charity. So, as you and your
friends, teammates, and family have fun “Turning the World Upside Down” on
National Gymnastics Day, let’s support a great cause and turn our piggy banks
'upside down' too! For an overview
