for Tuesday, July 12th ...
Both squads stretched and jumped together. We passed around the Lavendar Festival sign-up sheet work schedule. This is your opportunity to earn money towards your uniform, so I suggest you work as much as you can.
We split for stunting.
Varsity rehearsed Cadence dance with music and got into a "rough" football formation.
JV reviewed cheers.
We did a few Zumba dances and ended with the try-out dance (perfected). :)
Reminder: MANDATORY parent meeting tonight at 6:30 in the cheer room to discuss camp details and sign medical waiver.
Also ... we are meeting at the HS weight room tomorrow at 9 am!! We will then head over to the field, dress accordingly. Also ... bring your poms to practices from now on. I will bring all the newly ordered poms tomorrow!! :)
CHEERS!!

Practice Agenda ...
for Tuesday, June 28, 2011
Watched Crowd Leading video
JV watched a Basic Stunting video
Varsity stunted (halves, fulls and organizing girls into stunt groups)
JV stunted (thigh stands, L-stands, Lib thigh stands)
Reviewed cheers:
S-H-S, We are the best!
Get on up, get on up, and yell for the boys (Wolves)!
Come on, come on, pump it up, pump it up, let's go Wolfpack!
We discussed the girls taking responsibility for their time, attendance and actions. Planning various summer activities. Choosing 'Right' over 'Wrong'. Vacation schedules (please make sure your coach knows of any days that you will be missing cheer). No jewelry at practice. Short nails for cheer. Hair up! I am sure I am forgetting something but the lesson is ... we have lots to cover so please make cheer practice a priority!!! Thank you!!

Attention ALL cheerleaders ...
Beginning Wednesday, August 17th practices become MANDATORY!!! This means that you are required to be present at all practices from August 17th on. If you miss a practice it will effect your eligibility to cheer at the games. We have so many girls coming and going during the summer (which I understand to a point) but everyone was aware when joining cheer that summer practices are a requirement. **Someone today actually said they didn't know practices started tomorrow!!! When I have posted it since tryouts!!** AHHHHH
We have a HUGE performance the 1st day of school, Varsity and JV both have games before school starts, and we need to learn over 100 cheers, several dances and a performance routine. The only way this can be accomplished is if EVERYONE attends practice. Again, if you miss several practices this may cut you from the performance and/or the first few games (if you don't know the cheers and stunts).
Above all our games are a performance. We have to be prepared. It isn't fair to the girls who have perfect attendance and work hard if Julie and I allow someone on the field who is lost and doesn't know the cheers and chants.
Please mark your calendars on August 17th with the mandatory practice date. Typically we take the week off after cheer camp but looking at everyone's vacations schedules this might not be possible. So many girls are gone throughout July that I foresee having to add on Monday practices and even maybe extending a few days to 3 hours.
One other note ... I am struggling to get ahold of several girls. If you get a text from me ... please respond, especially when my text indicates a response. I can't "stalk" 32 girls!!! I also recommend you check the cheer blog DAILY!! Camp money was due today and I am still missing payment from 8 girls!! I cannot pay the balance until I receive all the monies owed. They will only hold our reservation without full payment for so long. Please try to be responsible, do your part and let's work as a team!! I absolutely appreciate all the girls and parents who are diligent in their duties ... it really makes my life so much easier!!! So thank you to those people who paid on time for camp, call me with any changes, and keep track of schedules, etc. :)
Thank you,
Coach Kim
PS I cannot wait to have Captains ... :) I could use the help!!

Today was the cheer garage sale and for the most part everyone did very well!! I would like to say, "thank you", for all the community support! A HUGE applause to all the parents and cheerleaders who participated. I just absolutely LOVE this group of cheerleaders and parents. I have had more generosity and support than EVER. Also ... I can't say thank yous without mentioning Julie Leaf, our new JV coach. Julie is beyond stellar!! She is motivated, positive and even remembers all the cheers and dances from her days as a SHS cheerleader. I am so excited to have her onboard. :) So ... thank you!!!!!
Reminders:
Camp balances are due this Monday, June 27th. I will be at the cheer room at 11:00 am to take payments. If you are unable to meet me then please call or text to make special arrangements. I absolutely have to get your payments on Monday because I have to send in the money Tuesday.

Latest and Greatest
Few things ...
The garage sale is right around the corner. Please be there at 7 am to set up and don't forget you must bring your own money for change. You are responsible for selling your items and removing any unsold items. The money you earn the day of the garage sale will be turned into Kim King and it will be applied to your camp balance. I will have receipts available for those interested.
July 13th Diane Lawrence is hosting another Arbonne Spa Party/Trunk Show from 6-8 pm at her residence. Although our last Spa Party fund raiser for camp was mellow (thank you Coach Julie who invited most of the attendees) we still managed to make a HUGE profit. I highly encourage you to invite people to this event. You can use the money earned towards your food for the 1st day of camp.
Also, we did receive a random donation that will be applied towards purchasing camp food for everyone on the 1st day but I still recommend you bring some spending money. Also, I ask that everyone bring ONE snack item (granola bars, etc.) to share with the girls in your room. If everyone brings something to share, a little bit of spending money and we grocery shop with the donated funds we should be good to go.
Our 1st day of practice is next Tuesday, June 28th and we will be watching 2 cheer videos in A3. Please be there by 9 am. Anyone who is late will have to run lines the following day at practice. So please be responsible. Also, if you have any days that you will be absent from practice I NEED to know, so please email me asap. Also, remember to wear proper attire to practices; tennis shoes, work-out clothes, hair up, no jewelry, etc. No bellies showing, rears, etc. we are athletes and you must dress accordingly. :)
Just to give everyone a head's up. We are going to have a Hawaiian theme day at camp so start looking for items now. Be creative, check goodwill. Please don't spend a lot of money on this. It is just for fun!!
Last thought ...
I really want to organize several events/activities throughout the summer ... purely SOCIAL for everyone to attend. So if you have any ideas or want to host or help organize an event please let me know. For example; roller skating in PA, a day at the lake, sleep-overs, etc. Let's make this a fun summer!!
