More than 150 members of Pegasus Gymnastics Club participated in the club's Annual Festival and Awards Ceremony ranging from the pre-school classes to the top squads. The event was held at Mote Park Leisure Centre in Maidstone in front of a full audience of 850+ including VIPs and sponsors. This year's event theme was Seasons and National Holiday Days.The festival started off with a colourful bang, with the Floor and Vault squad performing the introduction to 'Firework', smoothly followed by Pre-School classes all dressed as snowmen. Next were the 4/5 year old classes performing a number about Valentines Day with hearts, followed by the Women's Artistic Squads performing a spring number.

Next to perform were the 6+ classes using Umbrella's as we pasted through April and a real crowd pleaser as the clubs children with disabilities performed to 'Don't blame it on the Boogie' encouraging the other participants, and the audience to join in with the chorus and actions. Soon after we saw the 8+ Advanced class performing with beach balls, towels, and plenty of colour, followed by the 9+ classes with a 'Thriller' performance. The club's Men's Artistic squads were up next, and finally finishing with a Christmas Finale including Santa, Elves, and much more.

Throughout the festival awards were presented to the club's members for Progress, Achievement, Volunteers and a Memorial Award in the name of Malcolm Taylor.
