I am forever grateful for Hayes and Jane Kruger for starting Skyline Gymnastics at JMU. I started when I was six years old and it is a blessing to give what I have received to every kiddo that walks through our doors today. I would like to shout out a huge thank you to Michael, Scott, Roger, Bob, Karen for making GYMNASTICS such a huge positive part of my life.

Thank you!

Dear Jill,

I never participated in gymnastics but have seen your hard work and dedication to your profession. First met you as a teacher at Turner Ashby HS. You’re always smiling and positive, a great role model 💕

Thank you for sharing your talents with all the young people along the way! Ella is enjoying gymnastics again thanks to the atmosphere and professionalism of Skyline!!

Wishing you more success and many blessings in the coming years 💕

I have been at skyline for two years and coach Jill has made it so special for me. When I walk in to practice and the end of practice she is always smiling. Coach Jill has helped me gain so much confidence and she has made me feel good about myself. If Skyline did not have you I have no idea what we would do. Coach Jill I have special place for you in my heart♥️.Coach Jill thank you so much for a heck of a rollercoaster (a fun one).Coach Jill thanks so much for everything.

I love you

Jill, your love for gymnastics and the care you have for the kids you coach never goes unnoticed! ❤️ I remember being a little girl starting at Skyline at JMU, and now watching Cammie on her own gymnastics journey with Skyline makes it even more special. One thing that’s stayed constant through all these years is you! What a full-circle moment. 🥹 We appreciate you!💗
