Walkway of Lights

Hi Cheerleaders,

We will be participating in the Walkway of Lights Parade on Friday. 

Due to my foot injury, I will not be able to be with you.  Mrs. Lazos, MFMS teacher & Anais’ mom, will be in charge.  Her phone number is 512.300.4254.

Meet in the parking lot at the corner of Main and 5^th Street at 5:30.

The parade starts at 6:00.

We will march down Main Street saying chants and cheers with our poms.  (We will not pass out candy.)  One of the captains, will be in charge marching and pick the cheers.

You will wear your full uniform.  You may wear a holiday hat with your uniform (elf, santa, reindeer, etc.)  You may put lights or glow sticks on your hats, in your poms, or on your body.  If you are cold, please wear white, black, purple, nude, or grey long sleeves under your shirt and the same colors for tights or leggings under your skirt.

Have your parents watch the parade and pick you up at the corner of Main St. and Yett St. (It will be pretty soon after 6:00.)

This is always a very fun parade!  Remember that you are representing Marble Falls Middle School and the Cheerleaders, so please have fun but act appropriately!

Please reply and let us know if your will make it or not.  Thanks!

Texas State Cheer Clinic Information

I am very excited about our trip to Cheer at a Texas State football game.  You already filled out permission slips for the district but attached are UCA waiver forms for those conducting the clinic.  Both the girls and adults with a “Coach” ticket will need to fill out the waivers.

I need each girls t-shirt size plus a t-shirt size for adults who are paying for “coach” tickets.  Please reply to this email with sizes.

We will wear our practice uniforms with bows, shoes, and socks for the clinic portion.  For the game, we will change into the t-shirts they give us with black bottoms (shorts, leggings, or the black warm up pants depending on the weather) plus our bows, shoes, and socks.  Girls will need to bring their cheer bag and their poms.

Jos will wear her Magic the Mustang costume during the game.

We learned half of the routine yesterday at practice.  We will need to add a practice to learn the second half.  So, 7^th grade will practice after school on November 8, and 8^th grade will practice before school on November 9.  If your daughter will not be going to Texas State, she will not need to attend that practice. 

Girls should work on learning and practicing the routine at home using the youtube links on this email and on the Cheer Tryout 2016 Playlist on my youtube channel (MFMS Multimedia).  I have attached the music to this email and it is also on the Cheer Music Google Folder:  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B-nTUfhbJXYfdmhxRXpYTnF1MDQ?usp=sharing

Please send your final payments for the clinic ASAP!  Most of you owe $20.  If you are not sure how much you owe, I will have my spreadsheet with me at the game tonight.

The pep rally for next week was cancelled by Mr. Barr.

Please see the notes below from the clinic for more detailed times.

Phew! That was a lot.  If you are still reading, thank you and have an awesome day!
