| Camp - During
the summer we attended Pine Forest Cheerleading Camp. During those
three days we learned new cheers, chants, crowd involvement, dances,
stunts, and team building activities. We were evaluated each night
we were there on a cheer, chant, and the dance. This is where we really
bonded together. Spending hours upon hours with one another really
got us to learn about one another. We got the spirit stick every
night and one night we got the "top banana". We came home
from camp with ribbons, trophies, and knowing that we have finally bonded
as a team.
Practices - Practices started before camp and have gone up until our last competition. During our practices we got ready for football season. We worked on stunts and learned side line cheers and chants along with band dances. Also at practice we worked on tumbling skills. During the season we also went to Airborne to tumble and learn new skills. At practices is where we learned our competition routine and perfected it there. Everything is done at practices before it is done at game or competition.
Games - We cheer for football, soccer, and basketball. Friday nights is when the huge football games occur. We only cheer for home soccer games because there are so many games to attained on our schedule. There was normally two to three basketball games per week. Our top priority is to support our teams and be there every step of the way.
Competitions - This is our time to shine while we are out on the center of the floor. For a first year competition squad we were amazing. Our first competition was Suburban 1's. We placed first runner up. Our next competition was University of Penn. Here we placed 3rd. Our last competition was Cheer Tech in Wildwood NJ. We placed first and are the 2005 national champions.
Fundraisers - Our main fundraiser was doing cheerleading clinics. Here we taught elementary aged children how to do some of the things we do. We would teach them cheers, chants, stunts, and dances. After the clinics were done they were invited to come and cheer with us at a football game.
