MOUNTAIN CHEER CLASSIC RAFFEL

2008-08-22T08:21:00.002-05:00

THIS IS A MANDATORY FUNDRAISER !!

Each cheerleader is responsible for turning in at least one item with a minimum of 20.00 value. The item can be donated from a local business or you can purchase a restaurant gift card or merchant gift card. There is plenty of time for the girls to get donations from local businesses.

We will compile a list of all 50 items. We will draw the raffle tickets during the Mountain Cheer Classic on October 4th. There will be at least 50 chances to win.

The cheerleaders will sell the raffle tickets at the football games and we will also set up a table and sell them at the competition. They will be given a sheet with all the raffle items on it and will sell the tickets for 1.00 each.

The deadline for turning in raffle items is Tuesday September 9TH. Please make sure to put your name on the item you are donating, so I can mark you off the list.

Please email Ginger Gee if you have any questions! groovygirlmom@aol.com

Here are some examples of items you can get donated….or you can purchase

A round of golf, a one month tanning membership, a nail salon gift certificate, a car wash or oil change, a restaurant gift card, Tickets to a sporting event, basket of items from bath and body works, starbucks card, Blockbuster Gift Card. If you go to a restaurant, tanning place, or nail salon on a regular basis….it is usually easy to get them to donate something of a 20.00 value.

WAY TO GO GIRLS and other game stuff

2008-08-16T12:24:00.003-05:00

I just wanted to let you know that you did a great job on Friday night! Coach Jones came to find me at our football game Saturday morning to say how greatful the boys were for all of your efforts in the locker room. :)

Pre-game/banner: AWESOME job on the cheer and pyramid!!! Banner was awesome! Enough said!

Game time: Overall - it was pretty good - especially considering we have 14 new varsity football cheerleaders! Several of you have let me know that "you know" you need to work. Thanks for owning up and don't fret... we have two weeks until the next REAL game!

Post-Game: Great job making sure the room was cleaned up! Ashley C - please remember the mirror for next week. For those who are new (all 14 of you) we will always have a quick meeting before being dismissed so inform your ride home ahead of time so they do not wonder why it is taking so long...

One last thing: I want to recognize KATIE GILSTRAP as the Jamboree MVP... as a returning Varsity cheerleader - way to overcome the circumstances, lead your banner group and get it done! Please stop by my room on Monday morning to get this weeks MVP award!

A few changes and updates for the week...

We are a TEAM!

We must act as a team and not a bunch of individuals in order to be successful.

Disrespect of team mates and coaches has reached an all time high and will no longer be tolerated. From here on, any cheerleader engaging in disrespectful behaviors toward team mates or coaches (any cheer coach) will be removed from the KMHS cheer program for the remainder of the 2007-08 school year.

Disrespectful behaviors include but are not limited to:

1. cursing
2. degrading words
3. talking back to coach
4. yelling and screaming at each other or coach

Additionally, ALL music played on game day, on busses, at competitions will be school appropriate. Please make sure popular songs are the edited versions.
