...1 more thing...

Sorry...make sure that you read the 2 posts below this one:)

WATCH DANCE OVER THE WEEK. WE WILL START WORKING ON IT THE FIRST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER!! I NEED YOU TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON!!

love
me!!

Also you ROCKED it on Friday night...just sayin'

...Aug. 24-29...

Hi Ladies!!

Here is what is going on for the Week!!! Please let me know that you read this:)

Monday- There is not enough room for everyone at the Performance on Sat. Aug. 29 so we have to separate into 2 groups. I have you separated so you are either in Mini-Liners (get your HEADSTANDS) or Camp Dance. We are not changing anybody's counts...formations may have to be manipulated a little, but we are not going to change anything. So we will separate into 2 groups tomorrow.

Tuesday- Kick...WE WILL FINISH

Wednesday- We have to go to the field (because we have Mini Liners the next 2 Wed.) and space out Hip Hop (Halftime Sept. 4) and Mini Liners (Halftime Sept. 11). We will do this quickly. When we come back in we will run everything and begin cleaning KICK (Sept. Homecoming Game)

Thursday- Jenni will finish cleaning Hip Hop, etc.

Friday- We will work a little more on our 2 Groups for the Performance.

Saturday- Blessed Sacrament Fall Festival Performance. 1745 East 9800 South. You are performing at 1:15 p.m. You must be there READY at 12:30 p.m. I have a Coaches meeting that morning that I have to be to, I will hopefully get there right at 12:30, possibly a little later. I will put a parent and your Officers in charge:) Come in your Car Wash T-Shirt, Warm Ups, and FLIP FLOPS. You are wearing the costume that you already have. Please wear your hair with a left part SLICKED (I mean slicked) straight low pony tail, full make-up, don't worry about eye lashes for this performance. Wear one of your diamond clips. So you need
  • Black/Blue Stripe Dress
  • Tan Tights
  • Tan Shoes
  • One Diamond Clip
We will hand out some Mini Liner flyers after as well...Remember GET MORE GIRLS

You girls are doing AWESOME!!!

...here she is...DANCER OF THE WEEK

Her dancing background....

She has been dancing since she was 3. She has danced at the Murray Ballet Center, she is currently dancing with Utah Dance Artist's in West Jordan. She was a member of the Angels dance team (Middle School) for two years. She was captain of the team last year. Her favorite kinds of dance are Jazz and Hip Hop.

Her favorite part about Drill Team is...

That she loves all the girls on the team. She loves the dances. She loves the change of conditioning. Also she loves Meg and Jenni.

Her least favorite part about Drill is...

Cleaning, she thinks it is kinda boring.

She has no favorite food, she loves it all!

Her favorite past time besides dancing is soccer, having fun with her friends and brothers, watching TV, and playing with her adorable doggie.

Some crazy info about her is that her favorite colors are lime green and hot pink. Her favorite animals are a monkey and tiger. She LOVES animals. The most important people to her are probably her brothers. She is a Disney and Batman fanatic. She even has the Batman comic books. Her dog Co-Co is a black tea-cup poodle with only one eye. Even though she is like 12 years old, she is still her baby. Her dog Blaze is 2 years old. He's a red/blue heeler mix and he's the most beautiful dog she has ever seen! Her entire family is Mexican besides her grandma who is Spanish.

Any GUESSES...

MARIA!!!!
(Posted by your Historian Officer)
I just want to say something about Maria. She is an amazing dancer and has a great personality. She tries her hardest every day at practice and always has a smile on her face. She is very dedicated to this team. She is an awesome girl and pushes through practice every day and always comes to practice, ready to learn and work hard. That is why the officers nominated her as the dancer of the week. Keep up the hard work Maria! =)


this is from Meg...Sorry about the Pics...they are not uploading:)
