HOMECOMING
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

HOMECOMING = JOB WELL DONE :-)
Ladies,
I am extremely proud of all of you. Parents of
these great teenagers, you should be PROUD!!!
Some of you new parents, you probably didn't
realize what a commitment this would be......but
believe me, it is all WORTH IT!!!! You have all
put in alot of time and energy to this football
season, which includes Homecoming, and just
think...you have next year to look forward to it
as well!!!! Seniors, we expect you to come back
next year and help, ok you don't HAVE to, but it
would be alot of FUN. Anyway girls, I just
wanted to let you all know how much I appreciate
all of you. The hard work is over....YEE HAA!!!!

Thank You
Thank You Christie, and all the girls on the
VARSITY CHEER SQUAD for the beautiful flowers.
They are really pretty. Christie you do an
amazing job with these girls. I know sometimes
it is really hard and you just want to give it
all up, but look at the RESULTS!!!! Look at
your seniors, and think where they were when
they first started with you as either sophmores
or juniors. They have all come a long way,
personally and CHEERFULLY!!!! (ha ha). But in
all seriousness, Christie you are a great coach,
and you seriously do alot for these girls, they
may not realize it now, but some day they will.
Thanks again for the flowers :~)

I first wanted to say thank you to all you girls
you really came through when it was needed the
most. I know for some of the sophomores and the
new juniors (and new senior) it came as a shock
just how much we do. And the returners.. its still
hard and stressful but at least we had somewhat of
a heads up. Christie was saying how no one but us
knows how much work it takes to pull off
everything we do during homecoming, but honestly i
don't think all of you girls even realize how much
of an asset you are to the squad. It gets hard to
take a whole week and have your life be nothing
but homecoming but if you let it, it can be really
self rewarding. I think it kind of helps us learn
how to do things that will benefit the majority
even if it is not what we may have wanted for
ourselves. But im rambling so.. I think we all owe
more thanks we could ever give to Christie. She
not only does everything we do and more, she has
to deal with all of us when we have gotten very
little sleep and are at the peak of our attitudes.
You do soo much work behind the scenes and it must
be really hard to do everything that you do for us
then feel completely unappreciated. I'm still not
really sure how you do it.. Then there's Jewels.
Honestly, youre just nuts. You just stick around
and are always there to help us and thank you! i
dont know what we would do if you werent around to
keep Christie sane (well as sane as one crazy
person can keep another crazy person). I mean you
two really think about it :: A bunch of TEENAGE
GIRLS. Both of those words are super scary. But
you guys just keep on keepin on, luckily for us.
So you guys deserve something super awesome like a
lifetime supply of marbles to replace all the ones
youve lost over the past few years. I dont really
remember what ive covered and havent covered and i
really dont feel like going back and rereading it
all and probably like two people will even make it
this far anyhow so just thank you all so much!!!
I'm glad things have turned around as much as they
have. I love you all!! See you soon!

awhh
christie that makes me smile.
i think that makes all of us feel so good to hear
you say that this squad makes you love being our
coach.
we love you so much and ill see you tomorrow! =]

Homecoming
Christie... YOU are the backbone of this squa
d. The girls are a reflection of your outs
tanding example you set and your expe
ctations. You are a very rare find!!! My niec
e is also in cheer at her high school in San Dieg
o. The stories I hear about the coach , the squa
d and the lack of organization would make you ill!
!! I am so proud to have my girls on your squa
d. I bragg about you all the time!!! I wish that
all coaches had your philosophy, your caring atti
tude and energy. At this stage in life, It is s
o important for the kids to have a positive roll
model. I want to thank you over and over for
what you do/done for my girls and the squad. Thes
e special years will be remembered very high
ly by my girls. Thankyou, Thankyou,
Ter

WOW
I am over whelmed by the comments on here! Like
Julie said I do struggle with things sometimes.
It's just cause I'm old. But truley in all
honesty I wouldn't still be coaching if it wasn't
for the wonderful girls i have on my squads year
after year. This year especially has been a lot
of fun. I know you've all had some drama but
what squad doesn't. As long as you all know that
at the end of the day, you have all pulled
together and worked together to reach the goals
that have been put in front of you. I think this
squad looks excellent when you cheer and when you
dance. That means you've taken your squad and
your job as a cheerleader serious. I mean
really, if we don't who will, right? Your energy
is contagious. Your dedication has been a huge
benefit for everyone at the school. My outgoing
seniors will be hugely missed, but my returners
will be the new back bone of this squad. I think
you might have your work cut out next year but
we'll pull together like we always do, because
you all have pride in yourselves and you want to
be proud of your squad and takes dedication and
commitment. None of which is a shortage with
this squad!!! I said I was spoiled last year,
well I was really spoiled this year! Parents, i
really want you know how much i appreciate you.
Without great cheer parents we could not have a
successful cheer year. A lot of coaches don't
coach very long because they have difficult
parents. I've only experienced that a couple
times in my coaching career. Not fun! 99% of the
time I've had the best parents. I think you're
all raising some amazing kids. Teresa, that made
me cry =) thank you for your kind words. What
really counts are the kids. The girls on this
squad have done an amazing job all year. They
really want to please their coach. That says a
lot about how they are raised. They know how to
give and get respect. It's a wonderful thing =)If
they don't have respect for their parents and
siblings at home, there's no way I'm going to get
it. I have such a great group of girls I can't
say it enough. Love you all!!!!! Coach Christe
