By Diana Remacle
With the start of the 2022 calendar year starts another season of gymnastics.  This month, eight-year-old Harper Blewett and eleven-year-old Marjorie Remacle have both been competing for 360 Gymnastics and Cheer in Clarkston, WA. 
Harper Blewett, a third-grade student at Saints Peter and Paul, competed in the XCEL Silver class.  She is the daughter of Colby and Angela Blewett of Grangeville, and this is her second year of competitive gymnastics.  To date, she has competed in three different competitions: Winter Spirit, Flip Fest, and Wine Country Classic.  She placed first overall, with a final score of 36.95, at the Winter Spirit meet.  She scored a 9.5 on vault, a 9.35 on the uneven bars, a 9.3 on the balance beam, and a 9.1 during the floor exercise.  The following weekend, Miss Blewett traveled to Spokane to compete in the Flip Fest.  Again, she placed first overall, with a final score of 37.2.  She scored a 9.3 on vault, a 9.575 on the uneven bars, a 9.0 on the balance beam, and a 9.325 during the floor exercise.  Finally, Blewett competed in the final meet of January – The Wine Country Classic, in Kennewick, WA.  Wine Country is a large competition and several teams from the Seattle area come here to compete as well.  Here, Blewett placed fifth overall, with a final score of 36.75.  She scored a 9.45 on vault, a 9.3 on the uneven bars, an 8.95 on the balance beam, and a 9.05 during the floor exercise.  Next up for Blewett is the Royal Festival at the Beginning of March.
Marjorie Remacle, a previous student of Prairie Elementary has switched to Inspire Academy and is currently in the competing in the XCEL Gold class.  She is the daughter of William and Diana Remacle of Cottonwood, and this is her fourth year in competitive gymnastics.  To date, she has competed in two different competitions: Winter Spirit and Wine Country Classic.  She placed third overall, with a final score of 35.825, at the Winter Spirit, which is hosted by her home gym in Clarkston, WA.  She scored a 9.15 on vault, an 8.575 on the uneven bars, an 8.7 on the balance beam, a 9.4 during the floor exercise.  Remacle also competed in the Wine Country Classic and finish fifth place overall, with a final score of 36.1.  She scored an 8.8 on vault, an 8.825 on the uneven bars, a 9.05 on the balance beam, and a 9.425 during the floor exercise.  During this final floor routine, Remacle performed an illusion – which is very rare to compete at her age and no one from 360 has competed it, ever.   Next up for Remacle is the Smoky Mountain Classic in Pigeon Forge, TN on February 19th.
