Student Reporter: Ashlee AnsayToe-touches, leaps, and pregames are all signs that the 2008-2009 dance team have once again begun. This summer tryouts were held for the football and basketball season. There are eleven girls on the football and about sixteen girls on the basketball squad. Practices began a few weeks before school started, and the girls are still working extremely hard. Their first performance will be homecoming on October 10th. They are performing a funk routine choreographed by their coaches Stacy Arndt and Sara Staton to a remix of the songs They Both Reached For The Gun from the movie Chicago, Damaged by Danity Kane, and Disturbia by Rhiana.
The dance team is also holding a Kiddie Clinic (dance clinic) for kids in grades 1-8. The clinic will be held Monday, October 20th through Wednesday, October 22nd. On Thursday, October 23rd, the girls will perform at halftime of the high school boys football game against Random Lake. The girls will meet after school in their commons and practice will run from 3:30 to 5:00 each day. The clinic costs 15 dollars, which includes the cost of the T-shirt that they will receive and wear for the performance. Permission slips will be sent home the week before the performance and will also be available in the elementary and middle school offices. The team is hoping for a great turnout to help the dance team fundraise for a hopeful state appearance!
