Bridgette Clement
June 8, 1990 to November 30, 2003

Gymtowne Gymnastics will never forget 13 year old Level 7 gymnast Bridgette Clement who passed away Sunday, November 30, 2003 from a tragic skiing accident at Alpine Meadows (Lake Tahoe) on Friday, November 28, 2003.  She was wearing a helmet and was only trying to have fun with one of her beloved teammates when the freak accident occurred.
	Bridgette had just finished her last season as a Level 6 earlier this November (2003) with the State Championships and was training to compete Level 7 beginning in January 2004.  She was loved by her teammates each who she made feel like they were her best friend and was a friend to all who knew her at the gym.  Bridgette will truly be missed by all of us.  Our hearts go out to her parents Mary and Les as well as her two sisters who she cherished so, Stacy and  Sara.
