8:29 a.m.: The judges are marching in, followed by the gymnasts. A final warmup is beginning.
KAMLOOPS, B.C., 8:25 a.m. -- Welcome to Examiner.com's live blog coverage of the women's open session (age 16+) at the Canadian National Championships. The gymnasts are just getting ready to march in.
What's at stake for many of these young women is not just the national title in the "Open" (basically level 10) category. There are several college coaches and scouts in the stands. Although some have already signed with NCAA schools (including Nicole Pineau, to Iowa, and Camille Santerre-Gervais, to Iowa State), many of the NCAA worthy are uncommitted.
