CHAMPAIGN, Ill. - The third annual Justin Spring Invitational is set to take place Dec. 12-13 in the main basketball gyms at the east end of the Activities and Recreation Center (ARC) on the campus of the University of Illinois. The youth club event will feature young men and women gymnasts at levels 4-10.

"There's a lot of great programs up in Chicago, but this event helps promote the Champaign-Urbana community and gives people an extra reason to come down here," Spring said. "I'll be here all weekend signing autographs and taking pictures so fans are more than welcome to stop by and check it out."

Admission to the two-day event is $5 per day for students (ages 3-17) and senior citizens (age 65+) or $10 for a weekend pass, and $10 per day for adults or $15 for a weekend pass. Credit card payments will not be accepted.
