WILDCARD PRACTICE

hELLO cHEER pARENTS-

Michele has worked it out with Tom to have the practice floor on Wednesday nights 6:30-8:30. The cost will be $30 for each girl due on the first night, Wednesday, November 30.

I feel that $30 is a good price and worth every penny for the safety of our girls.

I will be at the church on Saturday from 1:00-3:00 if anyone would like to pay for the banquet or pick up their pictures.


JUST A REMINDER ABOUT THE BANQUET

SUNDAY

Hello Cheer Parents-

Our girls did a wonderful job at Pappa John's! They showed everyone why we won 1st PLACE--

We do have a game tomorrow against Lyndon @ 2:30 at Shawnee.

Money for the Nationals Team is due by NOVEMBER 10TH. If you can pay tomorrow, GREAT--if not, please see me about dropping it off at my house or mailing it to me.

I know that I am a little bit passionate (a good word for psycho) about cheerleading and the competitions-but I love your girls and in my book it is ALL about them. I will fight for what I believe is right and will not back down-I may not always win-evident today of parents having to pay $5-but I will continue to fight for us.

Your Dedicated (and sometimes a little (ok a lot!) Psycho) Director
