March 14 - 19

UXC Tumbling open to those trying out for JD Cheer in April
There are only four Wednesday tumbling sessions left before tryouts
The cheer account is being closed out so you must pay $10 to Kory each time you attend tumbling.  The  school will cut the final check to Kory this week to close out our account with him for the year.  I will no longer be able to pay Kory through the cheer account.
Tumbling at UXC is not mandatory in March and April but highly recommended  for those who plan on trying out for JD cheer in April.  You will need to bring $10 each time you attend.  New girls and boys planning on trying out for JD Cheer are also welcome.  They will need to go to the UXC website, print off the waivers,  and have their parents sign them if they have not already done so.  If they are not a member of UXC there is also a registration fee.  All the info will be on the website.

Exit Interviews
The coaching staff will hold a meeting with the new team shortly after it is chosen to get input and ideas for next year but if you would like to meet with us before tryouts we are offering exit interviews. It is not mandatory but if you would like the opportunity to privately meet with us before tryouts this is your chance.  Our first available date is Thurs. March 17, after school in Coach Kara's classroom.  We are able to hold individual meetings that day starting at 3:15pm.  We will add dates next week if there is a need for them.  Text me if you would like to schedule a time to meet on Thursday. Thanks! 

Seniors 
If you would like to help with tryouts this year we will set up a couple times to get together after spring break to learn tryout material and set up a plan on how to best teach the candidates. As it gets closer to the dates I will reach out to see who would like to help. :-)

Pep Assembly
I am waiting to get information from student government as to their plans for the last pep assembly.  If we are performing we will hold practices the week of April 10th to get ready for it. 

The end of year banquet is being planned for mid April.  Information will be given when details are finalized.

3/7 - 3/13

St Patrick's Day Parade
The St. Patrick's Day Parade is Saturday morning.  I know it is a long weekend and some of you may be out of town.  Please text me ASAP whether you are able to attend or not.  Thank You!


Competition Team
Congratulations to our competition team who took 2nd place out of ten teams in their division at JAMZ Nationals.  It was a great way to end competition season!


Spring Sports
Basketball and cheer competition season are over but the team still has a couple obligations along with the fact that JD has a number of spring sports to support.  Spring sports are not cheered for on the sidelines like football or basketball but that does not mean we can't come together as a team and cheer them on from the stands. Please continue to read the weekly blog updates.  I know this time of year is typically light for you.  I am looking for the team to attend just one or two home girls lacrosse, boys lacrosse, soccer, baseball, and softball games.  If you have friends on any of these teams talk to them and let me know if there is a game they would really like some extra support.  We can get the info out and hopefully get a group together to cheer them on.  Thanks!


UXC Tumbling
Tumbling at UXC is not mandatory in March and April but highly recommended  for those who plan on trying out for JD cheer in April or any of our seniors trying out for college cheer.  You will need to bring $10 each time you attend.  New girls planning to tryout for JD Cheer are also welcome.  They will need to go to the UXC website, print off the waivers,  and have their parents sign them if they have not already done so.  If they are not a member of UXC there is also a registration fee.  All the info will be on the website.


UXC Past due balances
Wednesday I will get account balances from Kory so you are paid in full for tumbling this season.  As stated above from now on you must bring $10 each week to tumbling until the new team is selected.  In the mean time I need everyone to get caught up on past balances due.  If you do not have them paid off soon you will be put on the fines list.  If you are on the fines list you are not able to take your finals.  Kory gives us a great deal!  We need to make sure he is being compensated in a timely manner.  Thank you!

The end of year banquet is being planned for mid April.  Information will be given when details are finalized.
