Videos are posted

Check under Eaglettes for flag on the field and Thursday’s practice.  PRACTICE over the weekend! 
-Jazz needs to be solid in your memory.  It should be BETTER next practice and EVERYONE needs to know it.
-Flag needs work on memory, moving, and overall sharpness.  The video is not the best qualilty but you can really see how the flags are not together.  Please work on it this weekend. 
Love ya!

Additional Routines 2008

Click here for the additional routines choreographed by Jessica.

I would like to see everyone participating in an additional routine.  I am looking forward to seeing you work together.  Your options…
Solo
Duet
Small Group (3-5)
Medium Group (6-12)
Do not take on more than you can afford (entry fees, costumes, and practice time). 

BY Thursday, September 25

  • Need to know who is doing what additional routines
  • Need to know who is choreographing additional routines
  • Need music ideas for additional routines
  • Need costume ideas for additional routines

Note:  If you have this figured out before this due date, I would HIGHLY suggest visiting with me about it.  The sooner we get this set, the better.

 

Thursday, October 30

  • Show off additional routines
  • Routines do not have to be finished, but must show progress and that work (and pride) is being invested into routines.
  • Must have music cut on CD
  • Must show action towards costume.

Tuesday, November 25

  • All competition money is due
  • Show off entire additional routine
  • All group members must know routine
  • Must have additional copy of cut music to give to Mrs. Heptig 

Thursday, December 11 or Tuesday, December 16

  • Parent Show off with Additional Routines
  • Routine must be performance ready with work still needed

These deadlines are set to help you be the best that you can be.  I have no doubt that if everyone puts in time and effort, we can have fantastic routines that will make the Olathe North Eaglettes proud!

 

If any of these deadlines are not met or you do not follow up to additional routine expectations, you will not be able to participate with that additional routine.

 

Remember, additional routines are a privilege, not a right!
