Gotham City Synchro travelled to Lowell MA, this past weekend to compete in the Colonial Classic.   We had a great time, had another great skate of our “Don’t Stop Believin” program, and finished 3rd in a field of 11!

Thanks to the Colonial organization for another well run competition and congratulations to all the teams.  We look forward to seeing all of you in a few weeks for the Eastern Sectionals in Hershey PA.

Gotham City Synchro Doesn’t Stop!

Eastern Sectionals

Gotham City Synchro traveled to beautiful Lake Placid to compete at the 2011 Eastern Sectionals February 4th and 5th. Battling almost 16 inches of snow in two days, we put in a great performance in the qualifying rounds that put us through to the Championship Round. Unfortunately, during the Championship Round we had a disappointing fall and finished 7th.

In spite of this, we have had a wonderful season. We had a worked hard, learned new skills, and had so much fun! Congratulations to the winners and we look forward to skating with you all again next year in Hershey, PA!

Lake Placid Summer Training

To brush up on their skills and have some Summer training fun, four members of GCS travelled to Lake Placid for an Adult Synchro Camp. Taught by Josh Babb of the Skyliners Junior Team, the skaters worked on their stroking, stretching and emoting.

The team had a lot of fun testing out some new moves and are excited for the next season to begin!
