TRACK CONCESSIONS
Cheerleaders (and Mascot), and Drill Team members, (and Coaches Mahoney and Heese)-

Please put on your calendars the following dates. Cheer and Drill host concessions at home track meets. If you are in Track, you still need to work at least one meet. You can get NHS members or your parents to work for you, but I'm sure you can work something out with Coach Heese, we have been doing this for at least a decade now. She will let you out of this one meet, so don't freak out.

Below are the dates. In the next week or two I will put up a sign up sheet for which meet you'd prefer to work, and then posting a schedule after that.If things come up you can make substitutions (again, squadmates, NHS members, or family) but your slot has to be covered and it's your responsibility to let either Coach Mahoney or Coach Mallory know about it.

• Apr 8- BV Lady Bulldog Invite
• Apr 22- BV JrHi Invite
• May 3- Girls Western Valley Conference Meet
• May 11- BV (Co-Ed) Bulldog Invite

TEAM PICTURES
2010 Cheerleaders, If you woulld like to get "semi-professional" team pictures done, bring your uniforms and hair supplies to school Monday, March 3. I will be glad to take some group pictures, buddy pictures and individual pictures. We can work in the commons or the gym depending on if/where track & golf is practicing. Who knows, if the weather's nice, maybe we can even take some outside. I will upload the pictures to share at either Wal-Mart (Rachel's Mom) or PhotoBucket, burn them to a CD, or save them to a flash drive for you, but it's up to you or your parents to order prints. That way you only get the shots you like but can get as many or as few copies as you want.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO CLEAN AND RETURN YOUR UNIFORMS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER MARCH 3.

SUMMER CAMP
Cheerleaders, and potential cheerleaders, Do you want to learn how to stunt for next year? Wanna learn some new cheers, chants, and dances? Do you want to improve all your other skills with the help of NCAA university cheerleaders and highly specialized professionals? Do you want to meet other cheerleaders from all over Western Iowa and Eastern Nebraska? Then whether you want to cheer for football, basketball, or both you need to get to camp!

UCA will be putting on a camp at West Harrison HS this July. I'm checking to finalize the dates, I know it's either July 23-24 or 30-31. I will let you know as soon as I fond out. I'll get the final price too. I know it's really cheap compared to other UCA and NCA camps. If it doesn't work out fo you, Morningside University also offers a 2 day camp, usually in late June and the Iowa Cheer Coaches' Association also offers one day clinics in August about the time that school gets started.

Please let me know ASAP if you're interested.

MAKING PLANS
Cheerleaders, and potential cheerleaders, two people have asked me about football cheer. Please let me know ASAP if you're interested in cheering for football, basketball, both, or neither next year. I need to know if we need to hold tryouts or not and when. It would also be good to know for ordering poms, warm-ups, tee-shirts, or shoes.

I will be posting this information on facebook soon too. There are a few 8th graders who I'd love to have come out. Volleyball, Cross Country, Drill, Basketball, jobs, poor grades, family obligations and boyfriends all have a way of siphoning off great cheer candidates. We want to build the best program we can. Come join the fun, help fire up that Bulldog spirit, and make 2010/2011 the greatest BV year ever!
