Join us in celebrating our 32nd anniversary of the Garden City Invitational! Judges,

Coaches, and Gymnasts enjoy our garden-themed competition each year. Victoria is

known as the “City of Gardens” for its trademark hanging baskets and the annual

“Spring Flower Count”. Join in the fun and dress in theme along with our Judges,

Coaches, and volunteers!

Why not tour some of the highlights of the capital city while you’re here? ...The

Butchart Gardens, Legislative Buildings and Inner Harbour, Royal British Columbia

Museum, and Chinatown to name a few.
