Last Thursday was a really hard night for Katie.
It was her favorite coach leaving.
Kalk was moving to DC to start a new chapter in her life.
Katie and Kalk
a couple of days before her last day.
She was all smiley that day.
Katie took this picture and made a
beautiful tribute to her.
Monika had Kalk the first two years she was in competition
This year she had her one night a week.
Kalk had promise Monika to help her with her floor routine when she moves up.
Kalk promises to help her still even with her living many states away.
Thursday night was her last night coaching.
They did a mustache theme
Monika's coach and teammate
End of the night, the girls had some going away presents
Kalk looking at her big card signed by all the gymnasts
I had made a scrapbook of the current group of girls
that Kalk coached including Katie.
One page had two pictures the gymnasts, one of the beam and other on the floor
the other page had something the girls each wrote on
Most of the gymnasts who have had her over the years.
Some of the gymnasts in a final picture with Kalk
Them giving her their last hug
The gym and the girls lost a great coach.
She always scoop to their eye level when
she was giving them advice during the meet.
Always gave a comforting hand on them
with words of encouragement.
The girls grew with you
as you were a positive role Model to them.
I pray for Kalk to have a successful
trip to DC and good luck.
