THATCHER – DeKeuster’s Gymnastics is gearing up for a new season of classes with a new owner and will start with registration beginning Monday, Aug. 1. The gym is located at 2281 Suite E in the Thatcher Plaza.
DeKeuster’s Gymnastics was founded in the Gila Valley about 40 years ago by Jo DeKeuster in the Fort Thomas cafeteria. Since then, it has continued to serve the children of the Gila Valley, giving them an active opportunity to learn, set goals, and gain strength.
Heidi Morris followed Jo, and owned and coached at DeKeuster’s for about 20 years. And, most recently, Sarah McDougal took over the reins in January as the new owner/coach.
Sarah learned gymnastics from Heidi for eight years and coached alongside her for 11 more. She plans to keep the traditions of DeKeuster’s Gymnastics alive while growing the business even more to provide additional opportunities for growth and improvement for all of Eastern Arizona’s gymnasts.
Registration for the upcoming season begins Monday, Aug. 1. For more information visit DeKeuster’s Gymnastics website here or call (928) 428-3598 or (928) 322-2905.
