Camp and Other Goodies

Camp is coming up! Wahoooooooo! Camp is the greatest because it gives our team time to work hard together, learn new dances, and create unity! I can't wait to see the amazing things that you will do next week! I'm sure you have several questions, so here is everything you need to know about camp:

  • Wednesday, June 21: PDC waivers due. You cannot participate in camp without them!
  • Thursday,  June 22: Practice as normal and then sister team time. Take this chance to help your little sister feel confident and ready for camp.
 Camp Packing List: Bring (everyday)
  1.  Pair of gore boots (black if wearing long pants, beige if wearing shorts).
  2. Hair must be SECURELY fastened up BEFORE you arrive!
  3. Water bottle - you get WAY more water this way then waiting at the drinking fountain, and it takes less time! This is mandatory - so bring one!
  4. Camera - I'll snap pictures for you if you want.
  5. Snacks - lunch will be provided everyday, but you may want some snacks, too!
  6. Your daily requirements - so below!
Camp week!!! 8:45 am - 5:00 pm in the Nest.
  • Monday:
    • Arrive at the Nest at 8:45, ready to go!
    • Wear your black pants, black gore shoes, and purple tank.
    • BRING your "all about me" bag with 5 small items that fit inside the bag (I will pass out these bags in practice. If you don't get one, check with your sister!)
    • Lunch will be provided.
    • Camp ends at 4:30, but we will run through our "Black and Gold" routine, etc. Plan transportation to pick you up at 5:00.

    • Camp ends at 4:30, we will practice until 5:00, and then we will have our weekly team time. We will be heading to Subway to get some dinner, then hanging out at the park and eating together. Pay for yourself - some bring some cash! Please let me know in advance if you will not be able to attend. Talk to your sister or an officer if you need a ride!
  • Wednesday:
    • 8:45 am, ready to go - hair ready to go for performance (tbd).
    • Wear your black pants, black gore shoes, and black W tank (if we have it).
    • BRING tennis shoes for our hip-hop routine!

    • 4:00 pm - Performance for Family and Friends! All family invited to come see how hard your dancers have worked! We will be performing 3+ routines from camp plus our Black and Gold football routine (maybe). The more people to support, the merrier!
Make sure you are keeping yourself healthy and strong during camp week. ALWAYS eat breakfast, drink plenty of water, and get at least 8 hours of sleep! You can only dance as strong as your body is!

Please let me know if you have any questions! I can't wait!
