Week of Aug 20-Aug 30
Hello! Feels like school is finally getting underway! We are starting to get busy!
Please look at the spirit week dress up days. You are required to dress up for spirit week. You are a cheerleader. You are supposed to be the most spirited person in the building. Plan ahead for the days so you have SOMETHING to wear each day. I'm not saying you have to get all crazy if you aren't that type of person, but you need to represent.
Also, we need LOCKER NUMBERS. If you don't use a locker, find someone else's on the team and use theirs.
Please make sure you are getting your assignments handed in. Eligibility will run for next week.
I"m working on updating invoice sheets for August but running in to a few speedbumps when it comes to starting back at work again. Things are still pretty hectic for me with new classes. I have only received a July payment from about half of you. Please get that in to me ASAP.
If you have a set of Rockies tickets that are unsold and you have not returned them, you owe for them. Plan to see that reflected on your balance sheets.
Next week will be the first morning practice on Wednesday. There will be no practice on Tuesday. We will practice from 6-7am in the main gym, and then go to elite for an hour in the afternoon. DO NOT BE LATE.
We got invited to the football barbecue!!!! It's short notice, I just got the info today, but the barbecue is on Saturday at 11am after the scrimmage. It's at the school, please come if you can! It's a great, free team bonding opportunity and it will be nice to know the team you will very soon be cheering for!
I need a cheer who has not finished community service yet to volunteer to man the table at Back To School Night. It will be from 5:45 until around 8pm. It won't complete your service hours if you haven't started, but it will put a decent size dent in them!
Week upcoming:
Aug 20: Practice 3-5:30 in the gym/cafe
Aug 21: Practice 3-4:30 in the gym
Aug 22: Practice 7am-9am, then football bbq at 11am.

Week of Aug 10-21
Hi! I'm updating early because of a calendar change of which you should be aware!
A few announcements for your future planning...
We DO have practices AND competitions during fall break, many of those fall during "blackouts." PLEASE vacation plan accordingly, and be aware of the policies of missing blackouts for ANY reason (yes, even the ones out of your control. I realize it can feel harsh, and, at times, unfair. But this is the ONLY way to keep things equal) during comp season. If you DO choose to leave during fall break, please let me know as far in advance as possible so I can get formations moved.
Also, December 5th is the JV State meet. We (parents AND cheers) are required to work the second half of the day - we will either try to exhibition at JV State to get one last comp in, and/or we will go to the evening Varsity competition at Mountain Vista high School. Please mark your calendars for that Saturday in the afternoon - both cheers and parents. This is a big fundraiser for nationals, and each girl gets a cut of the earnings if she AND a minimum of one parent work. Since Pom is working morning, and we are working afternoon, it is on our program to make sure that all of our stations are manned during the afternoon. The responsibility is 100% on us to make sure this happens.
Good news! I know it's been on the table for the girls to get indoor warm ups, but I never put it on the financial agreement. I know that Nationals expenses haven't quite been laid down in concrete yet, so I'm apprehensive to just tack on that money. BUT! We have a great opportunity coming this Thursday, August 13 at 3pm. Morgan's mom is coming to give a presentation on Mesa State University to the cheer team and we need 7 parents to attend (minimum). Her request is to give feedback on the presentation in order to drive more front range students to Mesa State after graduation. The presentation is at 3pm at CTHS (location TBD). If we participate and have 7 parents participate, the donation will cover the vast majority of the cost of indoor warm ups for the girls. The remaining athlete portion will be about $10. We need 7 parents! If you can come, please do!
As a result, we will have practice following the presentation until 5pm on thursday, and then forego Saturday's practice to give you the full weekend to enjoy your family before many saturdays get absorbed by cheer.
Still have one more spot available for a 9th, 110th, or 11th grader to attend Leadership Conference on August 22 at EHS following Practice until 4:30pm. Please send me an email if you're interested and available to go.
