Jennifer Chamberlain & the NK gymnasts are the best gymnasts there are Never once at NKHS is gymnastis respected as a sport. As a former gymnast on the high school team, i want to say that NK gymnastis gets no reconization. For the talent and the skills these girls work hard everyday after school for, and get a little article no more than 50 words is nothing. Jennifer Chamberlain has worked so hard to get where she and her teamates got at new englands and states, Jen has been doing gymnastics since she was very young. Gymnastics is her life, and now that she is getting older, her body is getting tired to the sport, and i think respectfully someone should reconize her for her accomplishments and bringing her engertic self, and inspiration to NK gymnastics, and coming so far. Shes my best friend, and i've listened, and have been to some of her meets and heard her talk for years about how much she loves the sport, i think respectuflly someone should get her reconized.
Thank you.
