Booster Meeting

Good Morning Parents,

We will be having our next General Booster Club meeting next Tuesday night from 6:30 to 7:30 in Coach Smith's room. I would like to apologize for not having this meeting sooner...we have struggled this year between school events, Coach Smith and Booster member's schedules, Action practices and football games to set dates that work for everyone. Our goal is always to have as many of you attend as possible. I have attached our last booster club meeting minutes that will be up for approval at our meeting for your review. I have also attached an agenda for the meeting. If you feel there are any other items you wish to discuss at the meeting please send me an email and I will be happy to add your item to the agenda for discussion. We ask that everyone come on time so we can keep the meeting to 1 hour and to remind you that this is a parent meeting and no cheerleaders should be brought to the meeting. 

If your cheerleader has items they want discussed you can represent them or they can discuss with their Captains/Coach Smith.

Thanks for your time and hope to see you all this Friday at our rivalry game..LQ vs PD....Go Blackhawks!!!

Back to School Night and this week's update

Hi Cheerios!

Varsity- we won't be having practice tomorrow. I need to get ready for back to school night, and it is too hard to not have a prep period on a Wednesday, then two hours of cheer, and rush right into greeting parents and being a teacher! We will practice super hard Monday and Wednesday of next week. Thanks for understanding!

BOTH TEAMS-
For back to school night

Report to the mini-gym at 5:30 and not a minute late!
Wear uniform, cheer shoes, white socks, regular spanks, PINK BOW with hair half up half down.

You will perform and then you will also do the fight song with band when they play it. Make sure you review that dance.

I will need some girls to help the parents with the booth by the clock tower that will be selling sweatshirts and t-shirts. If you help, they can take down your names and you will get merits. You guys are so cute I know yo can help them sell things!!

VARSITY-

Practice your dance for homecoming on your own before Monday. NO ONE is allowed to miss practice next week. FOR ANY REASON. We cannot practice with people missing.

Starting Thursday of THIS WEEK we will be painting the homecoming run-through. This is a massive undertaking! YOU MUST come at lunch to help with this. I need people with 6th period unscheduled only to help with balloons next friday when we fill it.

We are playing INDIO away. Report to the bus at 5:30, hair half up half down with pink bow and uniform. Please wear the correct thing! Your hair MUST HAVE a rubber band hair tie and then the bow. No loose hair hanging over ears. It must be all off your face. Also no bangs out. I will ask you to re-do it if it is wrong.

Wear to school- uniform, cheer shoes, or Toms, hair as you like. It may be nice to wear your pink bow to school.

If you haven't gotten a pink bow because you missed practice let me know.

BOTH TEAMS WILL BE REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN SPIRIT DAYS NEXT WEEK. Plan ahead. You are the SPIRIT of the school, so in order to increase school spirit I expect you to participate.

October 3 Back to School Night

Wednesday October 3rd is Back to School Night

Both teams will need to be in the mini-gym at 5. Dressed in uniform, and hair as you usually wear it to games.

Varsity knows what they are doing. JV- Coach Ciotta and I will discuss and get back to you.

Make arrangements now as your work schedule or other activities will need to be changed. No excuse will be accepted as this is a month in advance.

NOTE TO ALL CHEERLEADERS

Read the post about the kids camp I just posted.

I will need about 10-15 of you per day to help with the kids. We usually have 45-50 of them so this is very important! This is a great event for us and it really depends on YOU to be there.

Both JV and Varsity should plan on being there AS MANY DAYS AS YOU CAN. In other words- from 3-5:30 Mon- Thursday 9/17- 9/20. We will not have practice that week. So Mon, Tues, Wed when you would be practicing you will be at kids camp. Both teams Monday, ALL of JV Tues, and All of Varsity Wed. (Tuesday and Wednesday anyone who can be there- meanign you don't work or have another commitment you will be there if your team isn't scheduled to be.)

Varsity Captains will teach the dance and make a clothing schedule for both teams for the week. It is important you look professional as you are the coaches for the camp!

VARSITY- before next Friday, our next home game, you need to make at least two sings. One for your goody bag players, and one general. These will be re-used throughout the season so make them durable. Goody bags will resume next Friday as well!

JV- Keep being awesome! I am so proud of all of you! I'll see you at the game tonight!

Love you all!
