8.7.2007 - Hi Ladies! I hear that a reunion is planned for next summer. If anyone is involved or wants to be involved, please let me know. In May 2007 I left my law firm, after making partner on 2006, to accept a position with PPL Corporation in the Office of General Counsel. I am still practicing law, but much more sane hours and a professional opportunity that I couldn't pass up. Those of you Parkette alums who worked out on 6th Street above Symphony Hall will appreciate the irony I feel every day as I head to work on 9th and Hamilton in the tower of the old "Penna. Power & Light" building! My daughter, Keeler, is now 5, and loves stories about her mom's life as a gymnast. She has attended Parkettes for a few years, but her attention span is too short to tell if she will really take to it! I enjoyed reading about all of my fellow alum's children following in their gymnastic footsteps.

6.16.2003 - After 11 years in the San Francisco Bay Area, I ended up back where I started... after graduating from Stanford in 1989, I attended law school at the University of San Francisco, and worked in corporate law in SF and Palo Alto. I never thought I would leave the Bay Area, but I came home one summer to be the maid of honor for Nicole Kushner's wedding in 1995, and met my future husband, Thurston Nichols. We were married in Sept. 1997, and live in Breinigsville, with four sheep, seven chickens and 1 dog. We had a daughter, Keeler, in June 2002, and she is coming up on her first birthday. I just looked at the Parkette website to find information on Mom & Me Classes for her this summer, and found that my info wasn't up here anymore. I practice law in Allentown, at Tallman Hudders & Sorrentino - please give me a call if you have any legal needs, I would be happy to help a former Parkette! I can't wait for Keeler to get into the gym - she is already climbing and tumbling, and she can't even walk yet. Would love to hear from my old teammates that have discovered this site also!
