Cheer Camp 2014

Madeleine is doing cheer this year for the first time. One of the great things about our new school district is that the kids have a LOT more opportunities to try new things! They offer cheer (and football) beginning in 4th grade through the booster club and Madeleine was so excited to get to give cheer a try. They started practicing in early August and we did cheer camp at PGHS as a good way to learn some of the cheers and meet some new friends before the first day of school. Madeleine even went to a sleepover that week with the girls from her cheer group....thankfully she was with one of her best friends from church, or I probably would not have let her go. :) 

When we went to sign up that first day of camp, they said that PreK could participate as well, so Charlotte ended up doing camp as well. It was every morning for a whole week and they learned a cheer and a dance. Each group gets to perform at the Black & Gold game at the end of the first week of school. 

 Madeleine did great and learned a lot! She is already loving doing cheer and while it's going to be a busy fall with practices and going to games, she's made friends from it and it having such fun! They cheer for the 5th grade football games and they even have their own little "homecoming." So cute!

And, Charlotte loved every moment of cheer camp! She does her little routine daily and I'm confident that she will still know it by the time the game rolls around! She was certainly in her element that week at camp -- she showed off all her skills and loved it!
