1.16 Update

Hello girls! I hope you enjoyed your day off!  Very well deserved!  I hope you enjoyed yourself on Saturday!  What a great day it was to be an Eaglette!  From start to finish, it was wonderful!  I am so proud of you for so many reasons!  Congratulations on a wonderful first competition! :)  One down, one to go!  A HUGE thank you to all the people who helped us out this weekend!  From the fabulous food, beautiful decorations, awesome props, amazing costumes, to the awesome cheering section, we appreciate you all very much!!!  What a special day it was!!!!  I hope you experienced that Eaglette feeling that only a few people in this world know!  I hope you realized why we work so hard!  I hope it was all worth it! :)  What more could we have asked for?!?!  INCREDIBLE!!  CONGRATULATIONS TO THE MOST ADMIRED TEAM!!!!!!

I do not have announcements to post.  I am putting the information you need to know below.  Please read it all!  See you January calendar for this week’s schedule!  We need another good intense week to get us ready for the biggest competition of the year!!!!!

  • Tuesday:
    • Wear to school:
      • Tuesday, January 17: Basketball- New Red Blue w/ Blue Tank and white tennis shoes (JV wear peace / love / on)
    • V report to my room at 7:30 – do not dress out
    • JV report to my room for 2nd hour – do not dress out
    • For the basketball game:
      • JV – report to my room at 4:45
        • Bring everything for jazz
      • V – report to my room at 6:00
        • Bring everything for cosmic love
    • Since we are watching the video / going through judges scores in the morning and have a basketball game in the evening, that means we are losing 1 day of practice that we normally have.  It means you have 3 days off.  It means we have 2.5 days left to prepare for an even bigger competition.  That means we must take advantage of the time we are practicing.  Make it count!
  • Garment Bags
    • You will be keeping your garment bags through this next competition.
    • You need to take all of your clothes out of your garment bag to air them out.  Take the white cardigan (varsity) out of it’s plastic bag.  Make sure they are all hanging up.
    • If there are any problems, please take care of them.  Remember, NOTHING can be washed.  It something is wrinkly, please iron / steam it.  If something needs to be treated, please visit with me before doing it.  Do not let a stain sit, though. It needs to be taken care of ASAP.
    • Check to make sure you have ALL of your costumes.  If anything has gotten mixed up, let me know ASAP.
  • Restocking
    • Make sure to restock your supplies for next weekend 
      • Body tape is super important!  Make sure you have enough.
    • If you need to get more tights, don’t wait until the last minute.
    • Go through everything and repack.  Do not think, it was in my bag last weekend so it will be there again!  I know that is not the case because I have some of your items!
  • Due:
    • I want everyone to write out (NOT COMMENT) corrections for all of the routines you did this past weekend that you are going to be performing this next weekend.  That means all team routines, officer, jr/sr, and whatever duets / solos are competing again.  We will be watching routines in class tomorrow so you can start creating your list then.  I am working on getting the additional routine videos posted.  You should also write down the judges comments that are posted online.  Your corrections will be due on Wednesday morning.  This is OUR LAST PUSH FOR OUR LAST COMPETITION!  We have come so far.  You cannot give up now.  There are going to be higher expectations for us this weekend so we must make sure we take advantage of every opportunity we have this week!

Love you girls so much and again, I am so proud of you!!  ONE Love!  Looking forward to a great week and another great weekend!!!
