Weekly Update

JV/Varsity:   After further discussion, JV will not be competing this year. Therefore, on the calendar it should state whether it is Varsity/JV , just Varsity, or just JV for events.  You may need to scroll over the event to see this.   To make it a little but more clear, JV will be participating in all Spring Practices, which start Tuesday April 21 and conclude Thursday May 14.  These are held every Tuesday and Thursday from 4:30pm-6pm.  When Choreography starts (May 27) that is when it will be Varsity only, unless a JV girl would like to participate.  Like we mentioned in the meeting we have 21 girls on Varsity, to maintain super large we need to compete with 20-25, if someone gets hurt (hopefully this is not the case) we will need a replacement, therefore a JV girl will be called up to compete with the Varsity team, in this we will be looking for commitment and skill on what is needed.  JV will not compete meaning summer practices will be optional when they are posted. 

Fundraising: Our first fundraiser will begin April 21.  WE will be selling cooking dough.  The fundraiser person will be there to discuss what is expected of each cheerleader.  Each cheerleader is required to sell 5 products.  These first 5 will be a squad fundraiser.  The remainder of product that the girls will sell will go directly to their own accounts to help alleviate the cost of the year. 

Vacations:  Any vacations/ plans that will require to miss any practices including summer practices must be sent through an email to both coaches ASAP.  This will help us keep organized and know when you will not be here.  Keep in mind Varsity, if you miss practices over the summer it could possibly hinder competition in July.
