Practice Uniforms
We will measure for practice uniforms during the week following Thanksgiving. We will be collecting the deposit for the uniforms from those who have not already made a deposit.

Competitive Uniforms
We ask that returning competitive members, who have uniforms, assist the process by bringing in their uniforms so that we can attempt to get sizes without waiting for sizers, which usually slows the process. We will measure at the same time as practice uniforms.

Shoes
Please purchase Cheer shoes and not just any white shoe. Cheer shoes have a specific type of sole and tread which is different than that which  running shoes have.  They are also very light and snug fitting.  Shoes can be ordered online at several web sites. Ask Nina for suggested sites.

Information for Parents

1. The Gym will be closed for Thanksgiving from Saturday October 6, until Tuesday October 9. Tuesday will be the regular practice schedule.
​
​2. Parents Club: Volunteers needed ASAP!! If you are interested in volunteering for the Parent’s club please let us know right away.  We need to get started with fundraising.  For the last few years, our first and very successful fundraiser has been a gas raffle.  The parent’s club organizes fund-raising opportunities for the competitive team
​
3. So Sorry to any helicopter parents that we may have, but we ask that competitive team parents remain outside the gym during practice.  If you see parents in the gym they may be for Tiny prep or recreational for which we allow parent viewing.  It is difficult to coach when athletes are running to their parents during practice.  We will invite parents in to watch occasionally and when we have choreography to show off.

4. Choreography:  We will have special extended choreography classes Sunday October 14 to get the routines completed.  Please advise ASAP if there is a conflict with that day starting at 9:30 am -1:30 pm for the Jr/Senior team  and 2:00-5:00 for the youth team.

Competition Schedule

We are working on the competition schedule.  Some of the competitions that we regularly attend have increased their prices and we are searching for competitions that won’t break the bank.  Our first competition is scheduled for December 15, 2018 at Birch Run Michigan. A great Christmas shopping get away!

Semi Competitive  Team

We are seeking athletes for our semi-competitive Team Saturday at noon. Right now we have a 12 and under, but will add teams with interest.  Please pass along and share on social media.

​We look forward to a successful year and are very excited!
