I know many of you miss your dances because of your dedication to your sport so Nor*Cal Elite is having a dance mixer at their gym this Saturday January 27th. We thought it would be fun to meet cheerathletes from other teams and have a great time doing it! Here are the details
All the proceeds go to our Booster Club which provides financial scholarships to our athletes that need it. Thank you for your support and we hope to see you there!!
What I would like to see is a dance or event put on and sponsored by several/multiple gyms that would benefit a nonprofit group or child that is in medical need. Now that would be a worthy cause. That would be a great step towards supporting each other by supporting someone in need. Can the cheer community gather together and put the competition aside to do something like this? What organizations could we agree to support? What is your favorite organization that helps those in need?

If there was an event we all could all get involved in to help raise money for a worthy cause I know my gym California Spirit Elite would love to help out in any way we can! Keep me updated!! I like the idea of doing something for Sydney!!! Linda

I heard that one of the gyms in the bay area is organizing an event like. It would be interesting to know what gyms would like to be apart of this. I think its great.
I think it needs to be something that each gym could do individually or as a group together with other local gyms. But host something that is the same, such as a run, jump-a -thon or ???. (I would avoid those because of injuries, but you get the picture) Kind of like a Girl Scout cookie sale idea.... or host a BBQ..... whatever. But different gyms "sign up" then turn all proceeds in to one place. I would maybe have a posting of what gym or group of gyms did what and the top 3 get a plaque or ??? for their top selling or fund raising efforts.
Then we could vote on where the money goes. Maybe start a fund for any sick cheerleaders and/or special needs teams.

That would be awesome! I know that Sydney's mom just started back to work - she has been off for dealing with Sydney. Sydney had her last chemo treatment last week and is hoping to return to cheer soon. She is already working on her tumbling. She got her back handspring like two days before she was diagnosed and is working hard to get it back.
I know money is tight for them as mom used to work full time and has gone back part time after close to a year off. I know that they are trying to figure out how they are going to pay for Sydney to cheer next year, much less their other daughters.
I know that our gym would be more than willing to participate in any event that blossomed off of these boards!!
