...kind of sad...

Well Ladies...

I was just writing up the MC script for the year end show and I found myself getting a little sad. I hope you know how proud I am of all of you and what this team means to me!! You are something very special and I am so lucky to have each and every one of you in my life!! I am so proud to say that I coach the JD Drill Team!! So thank you and please take all of this week and especially next week in!!! Remember how fast it truly flies by!!! Here is just some stuff that NEEDS to be accomplished this week and next!!

Thurs: practice is at 6:00-7:30 am. Meet in the dance room so you can run Hip Hop and then book it into the gym to do the rest!! I want all routines to be completed by 6:30 am!! DEAL?? You will then have 1 hour to get the end of your Intro dance cleaned and maybe some of your beginning ready to go!! So please practice on your own!!! It is on YOU TUBE!!!

Fri: practice is at 6:00-7:30 am. Meet in the dance room again so we can run Hip Hop we will run all of your routines 6:20 or 6:30 (shoot for 6:20 to be done with those) we will walk over the beginning of the Intro dance (again please practice on your own) and run it with the music. We will separate into groups for the BoyLiner routine...please come with ideas...we won't have much time!! Also officers you should have something for me as well!!!

***Also on Friday. I need your parents checks for the banquet dinner along with who will be attending out of the 2 of them or both of them...just let me know***

Sat: MEETING at 9:30 a.m. on the dot!! We will finish up BoyLiners if we have to. Please make sure that your boy is ON TIME!! We will start right at 10:00 am!! Also, I need them to wear what they are going to wear to perform in...we don't want any trouble!! Have them wear something black or something JD, basketball shorts, etc. Our goal is to have it all taught by 11:30 am so we can run it with the music a lot!! Please practice with them so they look amazing!!

Right at 12:00 we will have the boys leave and we will go over our comp routines and answer any questions regarding the intro dance!!! **Make sure you bring a snack you can pop in your mouth**

Tues: March 23: Try-Out Meeting!!! be there!!!

Wed. March 24: Practice at 6:00 am we will run our show and then right at 7:00am your boys should be there to run over their routine and run it with the music some more!! Then you need to be completely READY and at JDCHS at 4:30 p.m. (again bring some snacks for the night) Once the show starts you will have to be on top of your game...there will not be runners coming to get you...you are on your own!!!

...wow...

Well Ladies-

You have done it!! You have almost made it through the drill team year!! You are by far one of the greatest teams and I have enjoyed every second with you. Please remember all that we have done and accomplished this year. We have 2 short weeks left as the 2009-2010 team please use the next 2 weeks to soak it all in, remember all of the moments, and really reflect on this year.

I am so lucky and so blessed to know all of you and I am so excited to see what the future has in store for all of us!! You are the best!!

On my drill note side...Please practice all of your routines so we can really focus on the Intro dance and getting the BoyLiner routine going. The year end show is for all of you...it is not meant to be stressful!!

Thursday Practice 6:30-7:30: Go over competition routines (Jenni will take you into the dance room to do Hip Hop) and get your partner sections down transitions and all.

Friday Practice 6:00-9:00: Finish intro dance. Get it looking cleaned (you can do it) run all competition routines and start working on BoyLiners!!

You are the best!!!
