Third Annual Shooting Star Invitational Back in Johnson City

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – The excitement is building as Johnson City prepares to host its premier gymnastics competition for the third consecutive year at the ETSU Mini Dome! On Saturday, February 22, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, 175 talented athletes from Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia will showcase their skills in an event that continues to grow and inspire the local community.

Hosted by Johnson City-based Appalachian Stars Gymnastics, this highly anticipated competition brings together athletes and fans for an unforgettable day of sportsmanship and performance.

“I am thrilled to be bringing this competition back to Johnson City,” said Dulci Miller. “Each year, the event grows, and I love sharing this sport with the community!”

Spectators of all ages are encouraged to attend and cheer on these incredible athletes. Admission is $15 for adults and $5 for children, while kids 4 and under can attend for free.

In a special highlight of the event, a commemorative leotard will be revealed, representing both the meet and a meaningful partnership with The Niswonger Children’s Hospital. A portion of the proceeds—$10 from each leotard sale—will be donated to the Hospital, with additional donation opportunities available for those who want to support this important cause.

Don’t miss this exciting day of competition, community, and giving back!
