Gymnastics Center In Fallsington Closing After 39 Years

FALLSINGTON, PA — Bucks Gymnastics Center II, a fixture in the Levittown area for nearly four decades, will close its doors forever due to the coronavirus shutdown.

The center, on Lower Morrisville Road in Fallsington, announced the closure on its Facebook page on Thursday.

"Through the years, so many people have been a part of our business, from staff members, recreational and competitive gymnasts, preschool, summer camp, birthday parties, open gym and back in the day, sleepovers, Girl Scouts, the list could on and on," the post read. "We thank each and every one of you for your loyalty and support through the years. We never thought that we would be closing under these conditions."

The announcement was met with sadness by the families of students at the center.

"Much of my childhood was spent in this gymnastics center. I loved being on the training team and a part of Bucks Gym II!" one Facebook follower wrote. "Now here I am 30 years later reading about you closing and it’s so sad!"

Wrote another: "Bucks Gym was a big part of our lives when our kids were younger. Our daughter was on your competitive gymnastics team which was a big part of her life from age 9 to 18. It had helped form her into the young lady she is today. You will definitely be missed in the community."
