Parkettes Mission Statement
Parkettes are organized for the purpose of providing all boys and girls, regardless of age, financial, mental or physical ability, the opportunity to experience the joy and benefits of gymnastics while becoming part of our family of athletes. Toward that end, the officers, directors, staff and volunteers are commited to:

Programs that cover the entire range of youth and their development, beginning with pre-school classes, with the opportunity for advancement to team programs through which young athletes may ultimately gain national, international and Olympic recognition.
Program for children who have special physical, mental or emotional needs so they may gain physical benefits and inner confidence through the sport of gymnastics.
An environment to experience the importance of physical fitness, including strength, balance, flexibility and coordination, and the value of a disciplined training regimen that enhances any athletic endeavor.
A learning experience with emphasis on the values of responsibility, competitiveness, dedication and goal setting, which can be retained throughout adulthood.
A community resource that promotes the Lehigh Valley by increasing its exposure nationally and internationally.
Exhibitions for schools, service organizations and community events to promote public awareness of the importance of physical fitness and to offer positive role models to aid in the social development of area youth.
The resources to aid young gymnasts striving for a berth on the Olympic Team, a college scholarship or simply valuable self-esteem.
Providing an oppurtunity for all young athletes to reach the Parkettes' goal - "to be the best you can be."
