Black Hills Brings Home Gold frequently, and we're certainly proud of that, but our team focus and motto are God Gives the Talent, We Must Give the Effort - and therein lies our strength and the key to our continuing success.
	A lot goes into winning - hard work, unyielding dedication and real character on the parts of athletes and coaches alike. A gymnast blessed with talent is ahead of the game, but it's the other three qualities that make a real winner - in gymnastics as in life. That's why we put our emphasis squarely on developing the person inside the athlete.
	We love seeing our gymnasts succeed, and we motivate them to be goal-oriented and focused - but not to the point of losing sight of what's truly important. Winning is very important, but learning to challenge one's self and work hard to overcome challenges--win or lose--is by far the greater goal.
	Competitive gymnastics is an exciting sport that can greatly enrich the lives of all who embrace it - athletes, coaches and parents alike. The rewards are many, taking the form of medals and trophies, peer recognition, team travel opportunities and even college scholarships. But the real rewards are the SATISFACTION, the CONFIDENCE and the FREEDOM one earns by doing his or her best at each step along the way.
	We want every team member to enjoy these benefits, so we work for that every day. We help develop strong, well-rounded young people and in the process we get winning gymnasts. Sort of the ultimate "Win-Win" situation.
