Coach Stark's Corner
Are you ready for some football (and some volleyball)? I am!!!!! The Fall season has started.
PRACTICES ARE MANDATORY. Practices will be on Monday and Tuesday evenings from 5:30 until 7:30 p.m. We will also have some Wednesday afternoon practices. Please watch the calendar and listen at practice so you know when you will be staying after school. As soon as we are done preparing for our spirit responsibilities, we will begin competition practice. I know this year is going to be awesome! We will still have optional tumbling on Monday evenings at Sun Country. If you haven't taken it and want to start, make sure you bring a signed Sun Country release to the first practice.
As always, if you have any questions, call me.

'09-'10 Officers

TUMBLING CLASSES
Tumbling classes are held each Monday at Sun Country from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m., Each month is $50. Beginning in October, the fee will go up to $55 per month. Please make sure you bring payment for the month to the first class. Checks should be made payable to "NHS Cheer Boosters" as we write one check to Sun Country. If it's your first class this school year, you must also bring a Sun Country release form. It's not too late to participate. All NHS cheerleaders, beginners (still learning cartwheels) through the advanced, are welcome and encouraged to attend. Let Coach Stark know if you are interested!

NEWS UPDATES
I need your help to keep this site updated. Please let me know if you achieve something new and exciting outside of cheerleading so that I can put it on the Panther Praise page. Know that pictures are always welcome! As much as I try, I can't get pictures of everyone and sometimes my pictures just don't come out right.
