This concert will highlight SHS seniors in their fi nal high school performance, as well as recognize some of the outstanding musicians and what they’ve accomplished throughout the year. On Thursday, June 4, starting at 6:30 p.m., the Florence Events Center will come alive again with jumping and tumbling fun from Coastal Fitness gymnasts. This year marks the 20th annual show and will spotlight skills and talents of Florence’s youth of all ages. Expect to be inspired by the dreams of young people whose tumbling routines will be fi lled with enthusiasm, energy and fun effects. Come enjoy a wide array of abilities, color, costumes and themes with a few surprises mixed in as the participants show their skills. The show is choreographed by Myrna Clark, a 30-year gymnastic coach and judge from Washington. She is assisted by Deena Mitchell, Brynne Sapp, Sarah Holdren, Erin Linton, Ivy Clement, Natalie Madden, Angie Herring, Lori Johnson, Tracy Markley and Bonnie Coombs. The show will also be polished by several dance numbers from “Time and Tide Dance Company” taught at Coastal Fitness by Laura Brandon.
