Monday, January 17 ... NO SCHOOL
TUESDAY, January 18th:
School day attire:
Varsity and JV must wear skirt, liners and football jerseys to school. Due to the cold weather you may wear your warm up pants UNDERNEATH your skirt, if you choose. Please wear the designated cheer shoes as well. NO EXCEPTIONS!! Due to the lack of participation on previous "jacket and jeans" day and "dress up" days ... I am forced to have all cheerleaders in uniform for school on game days.
JV game starts at 5:15 pm and EVERY JV cheerleader must be at the gym 30 minutes prior ... so don't be late!!! So ... that means by 4:45 pm you must be at the gym ... READY to stretch. If you are at the gym at 4:45 but in the bathroom doing your hair ... that doesn't count!!! You must be in front of the bleachers stretching at 4:45 pm. Hair up with bows!!! NO BOBBY PINS!!
Varsity game begins at 7:00 pm and EVERY Varsity cheerleader must be at the gym 30 minutes before the start of the game ... so that means 6:30 pm. Same thing ... NOT in the bathroom straightening your hair or doing your make-up!! Hair up with bows!!!
WEDNESDAY, January 19th:
Optional practice ...
to learn the youth cheer dance from 3-4:30 pm ... at the latest. All Captains are required to attend this practice!! Please if you are able to attend this practice we can use all the help we can get and we can plan a cool "stunting show" for the youth cheerleaders. :)
FRIDAY, January 21st:
School day attire: Both JV and Varsity are required to DRESS UP!!!!!!!!!!! From now on if you do NOT participate in the dress up days or whatever the designated school day attire is you must attend a "special practice" designed for those individuals who are NOT following the game day attire. I do not expect you to go buy clothes to dress up for school however ripped jeans are absolutely NOT acceptable. Nice pants, a skirt, etc. is considered dressing up ... so just put some pride into your "dress up" decisions and look nice ... PLEASE!! Otherwise, we will wear our uniform to school every game day ... so that's the alternative. :)
JV game begins at 5:15 pm and you again must be at the gym by 4:45 pm ready to stretch. Please wear your uniform and hair up with bows.
Varsity game begins at 7:00 pm and you must be at the gym by 6:30 pm ready to stretch. Please wear your uniform and hair up with bows.
SATURDAY, January 22nd
Youth cheer camp in the HS Cafeteria from 8-12. Please be there at 7:30 am and plan to stay at least till 12:15 pm to help with clean up. Wear your polos for the Saturday camp. Bring water and a snack for yourselves. Unfortunately, we have NOT had the attendance participation that I was hoping for so again if you know of ANYONE interested have them contact me asap. Unless we have more kids sign up we won't make a profit to apply to uniform balances. I consider this event a community service opportunity ... however, I was hoping to have a big turn out and be able to apply some funds to the uniform balances but I need your help!!
On a brighter note ... both JV and Varsity performed STELLAR at the games against PA. The half-time performances were awesome. Several people from the games commented on our sharp uniforms, our boundless energy and someone even mentioned that we are the best cheerleaders in our district!! I am beyond proud of all of you. I know that back to back games are extremely demanding and I just wanted to let you all know how great you did this past week. REMEMBER ... in between cheers/chants ... unless you are rallying you MUST stand in "attention". It's amazing how professional we look standing in "attention" and it keeps us from being fidgety. :)
