Supporting Northern Nevada’s Youth Gymnasts: How Flowers and Community Build Confidence

12/07/2024


Gymnastics Nevada: Building Confidence, Community, and Opportunity Through Youth Gymnastics

Walk into Gymnastics Nevada, and you’ll notice more than the thud of feet on mats or the quiet tension before a routine. You’ll see the determination in a young gymnast’s eyes as they prepare to vault, the calm encouragement from coaches who’ve guided countless athletes through tough skills, and the small clusters of parents exchanging proud smiles. You might even catch Olympian Jake Dalton offering a piece of advice that can only come from someone who’s stood on the world’s biggest stage. Here, in Northern Nevada, these moments shape not just strong athletes, but confident, resilient young people ready to face life’s challenges.

“Gymnastics is a costly sport,” says one parent. “But it’s worth it. This isn’t about medals—it’s about discipline, teamwork, and becoming a family.” That sense of family thrives at this Gymnastics Nevada, where athletes learn to trust themselves and each other, discovering that their potential reaches far beyond the gym. As gymnast Ava Brigger puts it, “When you spend this much time with your team, they stop being just your friends. They become your family.”

The Gymnastics Nevada Booster Club works tirelessly to ensure every child can keep reaching higher, even when costs like travel and competition fees stack up. By chipping away at financial obstacles, the Booster Club helps these athletes focus on what matters most—growing stronger, kinder, and more determined with every practice.

Sparks Florist 12 Months of Flowers Fundraising: Helping Dreams Bloom Year-Round

Community support extends beyond the gym’s doors. Through the Sparks Florist 12 Months of Flowers fundraising program, buying flowers becomes a way for the entire Northern Nevada community to uplift young athletes. Each 12 Months of Flowers card purchased directly from Gymnastics Nevada provides fresh bouquets throughout the year. It’s a simple, meaningful way to invest in local youth, one month at a time.

How the Program Works:

  • Purchase Your Card from Gymnastics Nevada: Contact Booster Club President, Lindsey Juraain, at [email protected] to buy a card. These make thoughtful holiday gifts—perfect for Christmas morning surprises, kind gestures for neighbors, or a special treat to keep your own home filled with color and life.

  • Redeem at Sparks Florist Locations: Each month, bring your card to a Sparks Florist location, including 1440 Hymer Avenue Design Center in Sparks, NV, open on Saturdays for your convenience. You’ll leave with a fresh bouquet, knowing that your support travels right back to those young gymnasts.

  • Invest in Local Youth Gymnastics: Every bouquet connects back to the athletes at Gymnastics Nevada, letting them know people around them care, even if they’ve never set foot on a balance beam. Your participation helps ensure that every child who steps onto the mat can do so without worrying about financial roadblocks.

These monthly flowers brighten kitchens, living rooms, and offices all over town. More importantly, they offer a steady, visible reminder that communities grow stronger when we stand behind our kids. Your support helps these young gymnasts learn to trust their abilities, rely on their teammates, and keep pushing through the tough spots—both in their routines and in life.

If you’re ready to help these athletes keep striving, consider purchasing a 12 Months of Flowers card. Your decision makes a difference—one bouquet, one smile, and one steady landing at a time.
