| Haha yes. It’s tradition. I thought they allegedly beefed up the site this year? |

There are so many ways to stagger the registration to avoid the website crashing.
10 minutes and still the “please wait” I can’t believe I wasted so much time in preparing for this delay. |

| They sent so many emails with “tips for successful registering”. |

The most important part is to set aside 30 min to an hour to stare at your screen if you want one of the competitive camps. If you just want non-gymnastics sports camp you can sleep in and come back later. |

| It's not hard to stagger registrations for different camps to varying days/times to avoid overload on the system. Instead there are 50k people trying to register at the same time. |

| Lottery for staggered registration times - like college course registration? |

I got into gymnastics! It's like some kind of dream!
May the odds be ever in your favor, Arlington Moms. |

| 20+ minutes getting nowhere. They need to shut it down and regroup. |

Once people give up and move on with their day it smooths out. That’s the regroup plan. |

But this is Arlington, the land of competition for the sake of competition. |
