On Saturday, March 7, the CLC YMCA gymnastics team hosted the Lewiston/Auburn YMCA for the team’s first home meet of the season. Chris Lincoln and his basketball players, along with many gymnastics parents, were on hand Friday night to handle the daunting tasks of moving the vaulting table and “fat” mats along with two balance beam down the stairs to be set up on the main floor. The floor mats have come from the Boothbay Y and were set up as well for the younger gymnasts to compete upon. Twenty-three CLC gymnasts were on hand to compete and there were eight first place finishes out of nine age groups.

“We had 200 people in attendance today and all our gymnasts presented their routines with confidence; no one held back, which was very exciting,” Coach Janice Cormier-Hay said.
