I'm a long time lurker, but I finally got around to registering.
I just wanted to commiserate with some people who are in the same boat.
Last night, I added up the annual cost of DD's gymnastics, and it was a little bit of an eye opener for me. I came to the realization that this year will probably be our last big family vacation for a while due to the increasing cost of gymnastics each year. Starting next year, our vacations will probably consist of gymnastics meets. I don't mind; I actually love attending them and seeing the girls enjoy it. I was just surprised once I added everything up.
If you don't mind sharing, how much do you think you spend annually on gymnastics, and what level is your gymnast?
EDITED TO ADD: Oops...I meant to post this in the parents' forum. Not sure how to delete this one, so I will just post it there.
