Jesus Telo Nuñez (2007) |
On Thursday evening, the big sports hall of Las Palmas, the Centro Insular Deportes, was dedicated to the memory of the founder of the BLUME Festival, Jesus Telo Nuñez, who at the same place seven years ago (2007), at the last time opened the 47th festival, but 12 months later, he died at 2008, November 02, at the age of 82 years.
Long ago was his son, Jesus Telo Rodriguez, now further developed by his side and had in the hand seamlessly all the threads of this half-century tradition of this unique festival's structureand in the 7th year in-house.
This BLUME GALA 2014 was to a further proof that the ideas of the Canarian fatherof gymnastics be further developed creative ...
It's really not so easy ...
... about 800 participants from over 20 different clubs and nine European countries bring together on an island, thousends of kilometers distant from central Europe, to the same time, on the same place, with thousend different ideas in the heads, but with one big philosophy:
GYMNASTICS at the BLUME FESTIVAL! A top and maximum power!
Of course backstage this looks like a lively bunch of excited players at the moment, but it's been a pleasure to see that you can recognize this special glow of anticipation in every face:
Whether small excited preschooler, or gymnasti senior in the 9th decade of life, whether the disabled athlete, or a competitive athlete:
Cross runs through the generations of the joy of movement to and from designing in particular, none, whatever the level of sports this is is.
This festival with heart, where its founder, Jesus Telo Nuñez, once given the name of the great Spanish hero and 4-times Gymnastics European Champion in the Fifties, Joaquin BLUME, is just as colorful and turbulent and diverse as this very Gala, in this dynamic evening in the sports hall of Las Palmas, as evidenced by the following photo impressions of our GYMmedia photographer Achim SCHAEFER:
