I need you to do the following, it will make the entire process SO MUCH EASIER and I won't have to be a grumpy coach out last 2 week of practice for the 2010-2011 season!!

1. Make sure you know Camp Dance. It is going to be in combination with out intro routine. In the intro routine every member will have 1 set of 8 that they will perform on your own. So start thinking about that. Please make sure that you know the following Camp Dance Sections
  • (8/27 Halftime) You Tube time- :12-:26 (4 sets of 8)

2. Hip Hop

March 11: Senior Practice, starting right at 6:00am. Start looking for something simple that you can dance in that has the color Pink in it. It can be whatever you want, make it YOU just have hints of pink in it...you will be bare legged and bare footed. Modest please

...so proud...

"Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming."

I honestly could not have asked for a better weekend with all of you. I was able to witness greatness and I am so incredibly happy that I am your coach. You have taught me so much this year and I am so excited for what more we have together. The rest of the year will bring us much fun and very new experiences. Remember to live for each of these moments and each of these days! Thank you for giving your heart at every practice and at every competition. You have had such a successful year and we still have a bit more to prove and this time we get to do it in CALIFORNIA!! I CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN WITH YOU!!! We are very lucky to be doing all that we get to do...Just let me say it one more time (I am sure it won't be the last time I say it) but my heart is full and I am so incredibly proud of every single one of you. I was not kidding when I told you that there was something special about you! All of you bring something so special to this team...let us keep IGNITING THE LIGHT!!!

Dates to keep in mind. Please write these down so you know what is going on please!!!

Feb 10 & Feb 11- Miss Drill Fundraiser. Please refer to the paper I gave you. You must be on your best behavior even if you are just sitting there doing nothing. It is a great and easy fundraiser. PLEASE LEAVE YOUR CELL PHONES IN YOUR CAR or give them to an adult to take care of. They have asked that the girls DO NOT have their cell phones. Please listen to any of the adults that are in charge. Both days I have class and as soon as class is over I will be there...I know you will be awesome. It is a fun competition to watch!! Very good dancers will be there.

...rainbow...



"If you only knew what the future holds, After a HURRICANE comes a RAINBOW...
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow And when it's time, you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light"

I could not be more proud of ALL OF YOU!! You are truly an amazing group of girls and IT IS NOT OVER!! The next 2 weeks we will continue to push ourselves and we will go to State and PROVE OUR WORTH!! We will nail Military and look like an army out there and we will INTIMIDATE everyone, we will be flawless in dance and KILL IT with our technique, and WE WILL KICK our faces and show everyone our amazing energy! WE WILL MAKE THEM REMEMBER FOREVER THE DAY THEY COMPETED AGAINST SILVERLINE.

We have good placements for State...we have a 2nd placement for Military and Dance and we WILL PROVE OURSELVES. We have a 3rd placement for KICK and we will MAKE THEM remember us. Our region was not swept and we all have a 3rd place going into it...ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE...WE MUST BELIEVE, WORK HARD, AND LEAVE IT ON THE FLOOR!! It is time to show EVERYONE what we are made of and no placement will get in our way...THE SHOW MUST GO ON!!!

-Now you have Monday and Tuesday off of practice. I had that planned since we started competing. You MUST get caught up with your homework and REST. If you are feeling sick with the cold please go in and get an antibiotic and lets get HEALTHY!!

...twas the night before REGION...

We are finally here. All of the hard work, sweat, tears, blood, sicknesses, fractures, love, dedication, and HEART!!! I am so proud and I believe in you with every ounce of blood in my body!! Please watch these speeches...they did inspire your little video.


"Great moments are born from great opportunity"
"Tonight WE are the greatest DRILL TEAM in the World"
"This is YOUR time"

*Just watch this because it is too cute*


"When you take that field today, you've got to lay that heart on the line, men. From the souls of your feet, with every ounce of blood you've got in your body, lay it on the line until the final whistle blows. And if you do that, if you do that, we cannot lose."


"You make sure they remember FOREVER the night they played the Titans"



Coach Brooks said this BEAUTIFULLY!! It is exactly how I feel...I love you all!!!

"The sight of 20 young men from such different backgrounds now standing as ONE, young men willing to sacrifice so much of themselves for the unknown"

xoxo-Meg

WE CAN DO THIS!!
"I said remember this moment in the back of my mind The time we stood with our shaking hands The crowds in stands went wild"
