Cheer Camp!

Of course, I'm still trying to catch up on summer activities,
so please bear with me.  
It's just been too busy and I've been too tired sometimes
to work on the blog after working all day and
running to school, cheer practices, etc.
Lost my mojo I guess! ;)

Sooooooo, let's get to it, shall we!

Varsity, JV and Freshman squads
Cheerleaders have a 3-day camp every summer at our local university!

Off to the University dorms!
Maddy absolutely loves the food at the dorm!
Hmmm -- do you wonder about my cooking now??
 
It's supposed to be a great time for bonding with teammates,
learning new cheers and figuring out how to 
go, go, go, all day long, stay up late and
put on a happy face everyday.
You guessed it . . . it's exhausting for the girls! 

JV - the winningest squad!
The JV girls (Maddy's squad) worked super-hard
and had fabulous results!
They won 3 first place trophies and 1 second place!
Way to go Bolts!
 Doing so well earned JV and the other squads an
invitation to go to the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl
game in Orlando over New Years!
Exciting, but doesn't exactly work as well 
as one would hope.  
Hotel costs + travel expenses + crowds over Christmas holiday
+ logistics = nightmare.
Nice to be invited, but not able to attend. 
No matter, we are super proud of the cheerleaders
and their hard work!

High School Orientation!

Big night last Monday night . . .
High School Orientation for Miss M!

She will be attending our local (the one and only)
Catholic high school where her brothers
attended and mastered the curriculum
and dominated the tennis courts! :)

Huge crowd at orientation with students and parents
from all of the city's Catholic elementary schools and 
any other interested students in town.

Truth be told, I think the guidance counselor
scared most of the kids with the class
schedule -- oy -- how to handle all those classes,
find the way through the halls and the most 
important task of all . . .
figure out how to open your locker!

There are tons of activities and clubs to participate in at Pius.
She took information on choir, cheerleading and tennis!

It will be an exciting time to be sure!
Gooooooooo Bolts!
