Week of 5/21 - 5/31

Hello, cheer families!

I sent out email lists to everyone via email.  This helps committees get in contact with one another, etc.

By pushing back the financials due date, I'm now missing shoe sizes.  (I knew there was a reason why I needed that last week!)  Please if you haven't already, email me (don't text!) your shoe size AND if you need outdoor shoes, please tell me that, too.  For sizing, we will likely do Nike for outdoor shoes and the indoor shoes are definitely going to be Asics.

If you haven't been on signup genius for the Broncos games, please do so - Cheryl Henke is the main point of contact for this - please email her with questions.  Hopefully you have signed up for a few games to pay that way to Nationals!

Upcoming community service:

Saturday, June 7th.  Arrive at 4pm for a 5:30 performance time. We will warm up, etc beginning AT 4 - do not be late.  If, after we perform, you want to remain from 6 - 7 to get a community service point, please email Lara Mills (Ella's mom) to sign up.

Second opportunity:  June 8th there is a Splash Dash to support the Drennen's Dreams foundation.  Three years ago, we lost a member of my neighborhood in a drowning accident.  Lifeguards were present during the time.  In honor of Drennen, our neighborhood hosts a 5k each summer to raise awareness and money for the D'Zone, which is a community center built in his name.  The event needs two things - on Saturday night, the neighborhood chalks the streets with encouraging messages for the runners.   On Sunday morning, they need race volunteers.  If you want to volunteer for the race, go directly to the race website at  www.drennensdreams.org and sign up under the events -2014SplashDash then scroll down and click on the link to send you to the volunteer page.  You can sign up at a station or a location with some other cheers.  If you want to chalk on Saturday night after the carnival, please email Lara Mills (Ella's mom) to sign up.  I will be the point of contact on Sunday but it has to be brief because of no contact rules.  I'll let you know where to meet me on race day.

Workouts!  See the following for abs/cardio/etc for the rest of this week.

Complete 3 rounds on Thursday AND Saturday this week.
