Panther Cheerleading
2009-2010

         Thank you for your interest in joining the ’09-10 cheerleading squad. We would like to welcome back the cheerleaders who cheered with us last year and welcome all new students who are interested in participating in cheerleading this year.  Last year was a highly successful year, winning a second place trophy and a fifth place trophy at the Kings Dominion Competition. This year we are setting our sites on first place.  
 
    Cheerleading is very active and requires a large time commitment.  We emphasize respect, responsibility and team building. Since this is a team sport, each member is expected and needed to be at every practice.   

Meeting days:  Mondays and Thursdays

Fundraising:    A variety of activities will be held both during school and on Saturdays.

All Cheerleaders are expected to attend fund raising activities.
