  Flip-a-thon
 

Flip-A-Thon 

What? Similar to a walk-a-thon or a fun run, but GYMNASTICS STYLE! Competing at 3 different levels based on skill ability the kids "flips" will be cartwheels, back handsprings or back tucks. Kids interested in participating will be able to download a sponsorship Google doc or pick up a physical form from the office in the coming days. They'll fill up their forms by asking friends and family if they'd like to sponsor them for the Flip-A-Thon to help fundraise for MWGC. Sponsors can choose to donate a "per flip" amount or a flat rate. The sponsoships that the kids raise will be tallied up, including all "per flip" payments (we will have staff counting each participants number of "flips") and the top 3 fundraisers will get a prize!

Why? We wanted to try a new style of fundraising for the gym, and we're helping some uni students doing an event planning degree by hosting an event planned entirely by their team!

When? Sunday 3rd November 2024

Where? Manly Warringah Gymnastics Club - 24 Middleton Rd, Cromer
