You will need to wear your uniform as usual for the game. You will also be wearing your tall socks!

It can be in a half up but only if ALL hair in front of your ears is pulled back and is in a ponytail on TOP of your head (it can be worn to one side but it has to be on top). 
Makeup: Bright Pink lipstick or a Light Purple. (not Red) Lots of Blue eye shadow.
I will have face tattoos.
Please Crimp your hair! If you do not have a crimper find someone who does and come early to have time to get it done.
(If Coach Anne doesn't like your hair she will re-do it!!!)
We need to go all out in order to really make it look good.

Dress time is 4:00 PM- Everyone needs to be there by 4:05 so we have pletny of time to make sure everyone is 80's ready. 
We will have Jimmy Johns sandwiches and chips. Don't forget to bring your $5 tomorrow morning and write down what you want with your name on a piece of paper.  
5:00- Practice
6:00- Last minute fixes and then head out to field.
Stunting and Tumbling warm ups on field.

Wearing Jerseys on Game Days!

Dr. Colosimo has said that he would like the athletes to wear their Jerseys on their game days, So...
Soph and JV squad will wear their Jerseys tomorrow (Thurs.) and Varsity will wear them on Friday.

VERY IMPORTANT: You MUST wear a white tank under your jersey. NO bra straps showing and tanks must cover "everything" so that Mr. McFall doesn't get upset about them being a little see through.  We WILL lose this privilege if he does not think they are modest enough!

You may wear your JD cheer clinic T shirts instead if you wish!  Soph and JV squads will receive theirs tomorrow morning at practice.

JV game info

JV Game 9/6 @ Skyline
Checkout at 1:15, board the bus at 1:35, game starts at 3:30
Wear your hair in a high ponytail with a poof. Wear your low socks. Because we will be on the bus with the boys you have to be wearing your pants, but you can wear your jersey or mini cheer clinic shirt instead of your jacket. EVERYONE needs to remember to bring your own water! Every week we've had girls get dehydrated because they were counting on someone else to do it, and last week a lot of you had to sit down because of the heat. Don't just bring one bottle, you need more than that! Girls who are signed up for snacks and meals please make sure you bring those. Mrs. Lester will be riding the bus with us. Text Coach Kara or Anna with any questions.
