7.9.15
I hope you had a restful break but you were WORKING - weights, running, etc. You don't get stronger by sitting on the couch (unless it's a rest day.) If you've taken a some time off, please get back in the swing of things NOW by doing burpees, running, sit ups, v-ups, russian twists, squats, and lunges. Please do enough reps to make it a work out. It shouldn't feel good until it's over.
You should have been learning from the cheer link on youtube... there will be a test! No excuses. https://youtu.be/AC_4iOUThCg
Parent gear is in! We will pass it out at the first practice back at CT.
New mats are here! In order to keep them in good shape, we will be changing the way we transport them through the halls. Please be prepared for the changes and do not complain. These mats will be here long after you graduate (our old mats came to CT when some of you were in the 2nd grade! There are 2nd graders who need these mats in good shape when they are 9th graders) and we must make them last. On a side note, we have the best and safest mats in the league as of this second. Yay! If you see Mr. Carpenter, please say thank you. This was largely funded by the athletics department. We will also need to have a "mat chucking party" when we move the mats down to Fox Ridge - parents with trucks we will need some help on that transport process. Because 9/10 only purchased outdoor shoes, we must take care of our mats and our shoes so please be aware of how dirty your shoes get once we are outside more... no dirty shoes on the mat and you cannot practice without shoes.
Please keep apprised to the calendar as a LOT of things are coming up and will sneak up on us very quickly.
I need you to register yourself and sign the waiver for United Elite. Please go to their website:
http://cheerelite.net/united-elite/
And create a new aacount with all the necessary information.
On July 13th, I need all unsold Rockies tickets. If you did not make the effort to sell them, you MUST make the effort to bring them back on MONDAY the 13th. If you do not bring it back by then, you WILL be charged the $50.
1. Unsold Rockies Tickets- DUE MONDAY 7/13/15 in the main office.
2. All money collected for Rockies Tickets- DUE WED. 7/15/15 at 10am fundraising meeting- this is the SNAP fundraiser meeting that will be 30-45 minutes at 10am. I know if it at an odd hour, but we had to try to accommodate all 55+ cheerleaders on all 3 teams.
3. The names of 20 VALID email addresses and phone numbers for our next fundraiser. Yes, we are soliciting donations. No, people do not have to donate but in order to maximize our return on donations, ALL cheers MUST participate.- DUE 7/15/15.
4. I will have cheer balance sheets for you on Wednesday - they will NOT include King Sooper discounts or Rockies discounts since we won't have them calculated yet. Please plan to make a payment toward your cheer balance by July 23. - Especially for those who have no paid anything yet. No one has reached out to me regarding aplan, so until I do, this is the expectation for an installment, please.
Please note we are still only practicing two times a week. Fridays we are strictly tumbling/conditioning as the Elite instructor sees fit. Therefore, we will not tumble on Wednesdays. We will hunker down and prep for football games to come. These will be hard practices as we have a lot to cover with a short schedule. The expectation is that you are doing your own fitness routines outside of practice to remain flexible (so stretch) and cardio/weights for stamina and strength. We will not progress with stunts if we are not getting stronger. Period.

6.24.2015
Hi all, we are on our post camp break right now so I hope you are all being safe, wearing sunscreen and relaxing before practice on July 15th. I wanted to make sure you had a few updates:
1: Fundraising Life:
You should have gotten your King Sooper cards. If you need more, please ask! We can get them. Each card was pre-loaded with $5 in order to activate the card. We will just add the total to your overall balance. No need to bring in the $5.
Rockies - we still have PLENTY of Rockies tickets to sell. If you need more, please ask Krista, Sierra's mom. The fundraiser is coming to a close and I will need to collect money at some point before we resume again in July. I'll update you as soon as I know.
SNAP fundraising - When we return, you will need to have a MINIMUM of 20 email addresses or contacts to load in to our snap fundraising account for the July 15th set up date. It's very similar to a GoFundMe, but the donations will go to each individual cheer - if you can acquire a business donation, the full profit amount will go to your account. (The company takes a cut, then we have to pay for the goodies they get, like logos on t-shirts and signs and such. You get the rest.) Even if you don't want to participate, please bring the 20 active emails so that those who do want to participate can get the maximum return for profit.
2: Fall Tryouts:
We are thinking of tryouts from 3-4:30 pm on August 17th and 18th, practice Wednesday and Friday... This is tentative! Please know that both the 9/10 team and JV both need team members.
3: Cheers/Chants:
There will be a quiz on the cheers we have learned and the cheers from the video. Beyond everyone teaching their own cheer from the video, you are expected to know them. You have been given the tools for a long time. If you are not prepared to cheer a game, you will be benched until you are. I will give plenty of warning of when the test is in August.
Be prepared.
4: Financials:
Please continue to pay on your own schedule. If you are waiting for fundraising money, I need you to inform me. This all about communication and trust. Your account balance needs to be paid in full by October. Let me know if you have questions, need another statement, more fundraising tools, etc. I am here to help you!
Please call if you have questions.
--Coach MJ
