CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Flip Fest at Lake Frances is getting ready for its 13th year of operation. In June of 2006 we moved the camp from its original location in Knoxville to its new permanent home, one-hour west, on 150 beautifully wooded acres in Crossville, Tennessee. Small creeks and natural springs feed Lake Frances, a 32-acre private lake on the property, making Flip Fest one of the most picturesque camps in the country. Flip Fest is the only summer camp owned and operated by two Olympians John Macready and John Roethlisberger. When families send their children to Flip Fest we work hard to insure they return home with not only an increased zest for gymnastics but also for life! Join us for the summer of 2016 at one of the most exciting and impressive gymnastic camps in the country.
