Sorry i did not blog earlier. I went out of town
right after we were done with homecoming. Ladies,
I thought this homecoming was fantastic!!! You
all pulled together to make it memorable for your
school. The rally was a lot of fun. I'm not sure
anyone else could have pulled off a Halloween
rally like the cheerleaders. Our dance looked
absolutely gorgeous! I woke up on Sunday morning
just thinking about how pretty it was in there. I
have no doubt no one decorates a dance like the
cheerleaders. The only bad part about doing all
this is that the kids think this all magically
appears. The time and effort and money are lost
on everyone. No one will ever realize how much
time, work, and dedication goes into this time of
year. All the prep and then being able to pull it
all off. Truly remarkable. Most remarkable is
that is basically put all together by teenagers.
I think that is the best part. I know the parents
are right there with you supporting your crazy
hours and crazy tasks, but they have to very proud
of what you have accomplished. They know what it
took to get all this done. They deserve a great
big thank you for giving you all the support they
did. Not just the parents that physically helped
out but the parents too that tried to understand
the demanding schedule homecoming can bring. thank
you parents for understanding. I've been there.
I know it's not fun to let your young teenager not
get enough sleep and out at all hours of the
night. Parents of my captains. Can you believe all
the stuff your girls did?!? The captains made
sure all was done that needed to be done. They had
baskets, shirts, posters, and props to make sure
got done. That doesn't even begin to cover the
scope of responsibility they had. They deserve the
biggest pat on the back from everyone. Juniors, I
hope you paid attention. That will be you next
year! I'm so proud of my squad! I no longer have
newbies. Now that football season is coming to a
close. My hope for this squad now is to relax.
Enjoy the last little bit of your year. Seniors,
it's going to go quick. I'm going to miss you
girls terribly =,( It's been a sad year for me
with my Dad being extremely ill and my Mother in
law dying. But the one thing that always snapped
me out of a funk was my girls. This years squad
made me love my job as a coach. Thank you from
the bottom of my heart. Coach Christie
Wow, you all did such a good job. I hope you all
had fun!!! Let's take this start and run with
it. I have no doubt everyone that watched you
was impressed! I was. Very pleasantly
surprised. You all looked beautiful and you
represented Burroughs and yourselves very well.
I'm proud of you. Keep up the good work. Hard
work DOES pay off.
Wear green jersey and black track shorts with knee
highs to school on Friday. For the game: all poms
and uniforms should be in your bag and bring your
bag. You need more than one pair of nylons. You
can not wear nylons with runs in them. Come
dressed in your shell and skirt with black
bloomers, no show all white socks and without any
bra showing no later than 4:30. Your hair around
your face must all be up and wear the long bow.
Don't forget to bring food, water and money in
case we are able to stop for food. Hopefully Bravo
burger!
