GTC Rocky Mountain Invitational 2016

Being the host gym means a couple of long days....

Plus the added stress joy of having a kid competing. 

Which all means the staff/coaches, gym moms, & trophy dads of GTC had mulitiple hats to wear and a ton of needs to balance.

The girls too! 

They moved from competitors to cheerleaders to "hired" hands.
