With as much work as this week is for all of us to put on, I am proud to say we are almost half way there and ready to rock on Friday!
Before I get started congratulations to Natalie C. on JV and Shelby McNicol on Varsity for being Cheerleader of the Game!
Friday is a very long and involved day for the girls and it is very exciting for them.

The rally will start at-11:15 Parents welcome to come and sit on the visitor side. I think you will need to check in in the office though... I am not sure.You will be dismissed from all of fourth period. Period 4 starts at 10:22. Be on the field ready to warm up then. Jewelry must be out at this point! As soon as I get there we will warm up. Coach Tae will be there too! I am so thankful for this, it will make everything run much more smoothly.
We will perform our routines for your school and then I will see you again after school.
For the game-
Be in the staff lounge upstairs in the main office at 4. We will have food provided by the Booster, and catered by Rubios. This is where you will get ready for the game, hair, make-up and so on as a team. You will get your flowers then as well.
Come in uniform, cheer shoes, Varsity- you will have a poof and hair down (Bring a pony holder for the game for stunts please or no one will stunt!) You will need at least 4 bobby pins for your wreath and 4 for your poof. Plan accordingly.
JV- Wear your hair as told to you by Coach Tae. You must have a pony tail holder in your hair for half up half down. You may not have it held by bobby pins only.
Remove all nail polish.
At 5:45 we will go to my classroom to retrieve the balloon banner that we have been working on already. (We still need help at lunch in my room all week.)
6:00 we will be on the field to get boxes out, show JV where to stand, warm-up and stretch.
Before the game JV and Varsity will stand in a line for the National Anthem, and welcome the team to the field with the dance team.
JV will cheer with Varsity for the first half, then can go into the stands to be with their friends.
We should have some left over waters for the girls from the banquet but in case we don't I will need 1 case (24) waters on the field from each team. Varsity- Brianna DeLariva. JV- I will talk with you tomorrow. We have goody bags being made for the dance team, and the other team we are playing already. I don't think snack is needed because everyone will have just eaten an hour before.
Game starts at 7. ( I don't know about you, but I am already tired typing, and we are only at kick off! Whew!)
The Booster has purchased a pink bracelet and pink football for every football player, and enough for each girl to be able to throw into the stands for the fans in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We are also putting pink balloons in the banner, and having pink ribbons on the Varsity girls' head wreaths. This has been so awesome, and I would like to thank them for their support in allowing us to become involved in such a worthy cause. Many of the football players are wearing pink socks, and laces, and gloves to help support the girls as well. It is really neat to see everyone coming together for the cause!
I sure hope I managed to get it all out... I am exhausted! Thanks for reading this long and tedious e-mail... I appreciate all you do for the girls and TO THE GIRLS- SIU! I LOVE YA!
