Thank You For Choosing Tumblebees!

On the fourth Thursday in November, Americans will celebrate another Thanksgiving holiday. Although most of us would associate the first Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims in 1621, our nation has celebrated this as a holiday since George Washington created the first national Thanksgiving in 1789.  Prior to it becoming a holiday though, our Continental-Federation Congress had issued "national days of prayer, humiliation, and thanksgiving." 

Today at Tumblebees, we would like to just refer to it as a Season of Thanks.  We are humbled and thankful that you and/or your children give us an opportunity to serve you as we jointly work to increase and grow physical aptitude, fitness, sport and life skills!  Our staff is grateful and we thank you for trusting us to teach and train you in gymnastics, tumbling, dance, diving, parkour and rockwall, whether it is in one of our gyms or on the Tumblebus.  We also appreciate when you choose to celebrate special times like birthdays with us. 

For 30 years now, Tumblebees has had the privilege of teaching and watching kids develop physically, emotionally and socially as they participate in these recreational and team sports.  Equally it has been exciting to see these same kids grow in their confidence and achieve success in these physically demanding sports. 

Just a few months ago, we also had the privilege of watching our USA Gymnasts and USA Divers excel at the Rio Olympics.  Didn’t it give you a sense of pride watching them perform for their country.  You could probably even empathize when they had a bad routine.  One day, those same athletes decided they would start learning and competing at their local gym.  Just like these athletes, we hope you’ll agree that it was worth the effort and you’ll continue to support and urge others to become involved in these sports in their local gyms.

Yes, our Season of Thanks will no doubt include more than we need to eat, a football game and time with our family and friends, but we’ll also be reminded of your willingness to partner with us over many years and we say “Thanks!”  We look forward to seeing you back in the gym very soon!  Keep up the good work!
