Abby loves to dance.
Abby loves to cheer.
Abby loves to be center of attention.
What better way to fulfil all of these? Cheer camp!
The Jr. High and High School cheerleaders have put on a cheer camp for several years...last year we moved here too late, so this year we HAD to get her involved. It is a short program- just three weeks...but in that time period they will learn 10+ routines, cheer the entire 1st quarter of the H.S varsity football game, make new friends and most importantly...have a great time!
The camp is open to K-6th grade and is ONLY 20 bucks! The last camp we had Abby in (Cheer America http://cheer-america-minnesota.com/) lasted three months and was a close to a hundred dollars- so this is a HUGE bargain! Abby has also performed with the University of Minnesota-Duluth's dance team during a Bulldogs football game...way back in the day. So needless to say, she is in the comforts of her own pleasure :)
Isabella has even taken a liking to the cheers. One of the video's demonstrate her ability to cheer...at the ripe age of 18 months. Hey...if I get her started now, I can be like one of the psycho sideline moms...kinda like that TV show. Sorry, that was out of line. No cheering for her just yet...she will have to wait a few years!
Being told the rules :)
