Brief: LV getting gymnastics center

Owner Rita Brown owns five gyms in the Orlando area and what the company calls the largest gymnastics facility in the world in Houston.

The Las Vegas center is the first in the West for Brown's, which said it trained Olympic gymnasts Kerri Strug, Wendy Bruce and Brandy Johnson.

"This is the perfect place for Brown's because there is a growing number of children here and very few things they can participate in year-round. We will provide a fun and safe gymnastics atmosphere for the children in Las Vegas," said Vice President Dayna Isaacs.
