Judges Invitational

On Saturday Kaiya competed in the Judges Invitational. This was her first competition of the season (there was another meet in July but she chose not to participate because it was scheduled on a Sunday). Anyways, Kaiya rocked it. She earned blue ribbons for vault & beam...and red ribbons for bars and floor (blue & red ribbons are the 2 highest level ribbons you can earn). Thus, she won a gold medal.

Everyone earns a bronze medal for participating...but you can earn a silver or gold medal if your scores are high enough to reach the silver or gold tier (does this make sense at all?). As you can see, only Kaiya and one other girl had scores high enough to win a gold medal.

We are so proud of Kaiya- she's an amazing gymnast. The Spring State Championship meet is in 3 weeks...we'll keep you posted on how she does!
