Thanks from the Iqaluit Gymnastics Club

It has been almost two years since the Iqaluit Gymnastics Club has been up and running. The club has gone from having just a few interested kids to having over 100 children at present taking part in our program.

We owe a great deal of thanks to the City of Iqaluit’s recreation department, which has helped us keep track of our finances, provided us with moral support and encouraged our growth.

The coaches would like to thank all of the parents who have entrusted their children to our program. It has been a formidable two years of learning about coaching, and how to run a program. We hope to continue to be as successful in the future.

We owe another debt of gratitude to Sport Nunavut, which has financed our training as coaches, and to Kyle Seeley in particular who continues to listen to the dreams and aspirations of our club.

Our expansion would not have been possible without the financial support of the City of Iqaluit, the dedication of our coaches and the participation of our gymnasts.

Finally, we would not have been able to expand our equipment without tremendous support from the Iqaluit Legion and Spieth Anderson. Thank you to the Legion for generously contributing to our purchase of a spring floor. And to Spieth Anderson for patiently awaiting our continuing payments.

When we work together as a community, we can achieve wonderful things for our children.
