Week of Oct 30 - Nov 2

Good morning, cheer families!

Here are a few quick reminders for the rest of the week.  I'll update again early next week for the week upcoming, but the dates and schedule for next week (with the exception of any playoff game we may have) is already posted below.

Friday:
Practice:  4 - 5:30 pm for comp run throughs.  Parents, please come to learn the cheer for the last half hour (5pm) of practice!  Remember, this is a practice for parents to learn and support our cheers.  Cheers, bring your uniform.
Game vs. Arvada West at home:  arrive at 6:15 pm - game time at 7.  Bring bundle up clothes but also bring your uniform.  Coaches will decide how to dress for the game depending on weather.

Again - if you are headed to Pueblo on Friday night to stay over in a hotel, the coaches will not be present and any supervisory responsibilities lie (lay?) solely with guardians.

Parents - if you have not received an email request from Leticia Pacheco, please reach out to her!  (I don't want to say too much on the  blog.)

SATURDAY!

Please arrive in Pueblo absolutely no later than 2:30.  Let's just say 2 to be safe.  Arrive ready to go in comp whites, and comp socks (guys wear white socks, judges won't see them).  Girls:  White comp bow, hair all the way up and the same, blue spankies, and everyone needs to wear matching shoes.  They should all be broken in by now.  Girls, if you need to do makeup or have another cheer do your hair, please do not wait until you arrive at 2:30 to ask someone.  There is not enough time.

Our mat time is 4:30,  run through time, 4:35, and our performance time is 5:00 on the dot.  We need time to prepare before this, which is why we are arriving early.  As stated in the Remind101, we have good placement after a large co-ed and just before the superlarge coed division.  Remember we are not competing against any team going before or after us.  Please stay focused on OUR TEAM.  Don't gawk at what other teams have -we compete just as much in the warm-up area psychologically as we do on the mat physically.

We will begin stretching and warming up early stunts (if there is an area to do so) about a half an hour after we get in and settled.

That should be it for the rest of the week!  Enjoy these few days off!  Rest but stay loose!
