This year’s award for ‘Dedication to the Tumbling Program’ goes, ironically, to an athlete who isn’t here tonight. Jack McGarr, though away on his Grade 8 class trip is continuing to demonstrate his dedication to his commitments at the OGC by being picked up tonight in Haliburton so that he can be back in time to train at 3:30 tomorrow afternoon as he is part of the OGC Acrobatic Gymnastics Men’s four who are going to the World Age Groups in Poland in July. Jack made the jump to the National Tumbling Program this year with great success, as he was able to snag a Bronze medal at the National Championships in Kamloops. What makes Jack the most dedicated is his unwavering attendance and his enthusiasm for both the tumbling program as well as his commitment to the Acrobatics Program. Jack is presently training 6 days a week sometimes dual discipline. We want to acknowledge Jack’s dedication and his parent’s ability to get him to the gym whenever we ask. Thanks Jack and Thanks to the McGarr family for setting a high standard of dedication and commitment to the tumbling program. We will present this award to Jack on Sunday in front of his group. Congratulations Jack.
