College Park Cheer was asked to be in the Walnut Creek Twilight Parade! Along with some other high schools whos cheerleaders attended this event, it was a super fun parade! Maddy drove me there in her car that she learned how to drive yesterday. a 4-runner (stick shift) and we took freeway! I was a little scared at first, but then I calmed down a little bit, only stalled twice :) I smell like moth balls though.. If you don't know what they are? don't ask.
So we got to the parade a little later than we were supposed to, but that's because the traffic absolutely sucked! We rehearsed our camp dance, and a cheer with jumps in it that we would perform for the judges at the end of the parade. As we walked along the street we did chants that got the crowd interacted and excited. It was really fun seeing all the little kids look up at you and smile when we walked by chanting and waving.
When we got to the judges we were all lined up and ready to perform. We did the jumping cheer first which went really well because at Camp, College Park was awarded the "Best Jumps" award for having the best squad jumps. I'm super proud of our team for accomplishing that :) Then we turned around and got set for the dance. We all worked it out and put on our best facials. It wasn't until midway through that I realized there were two professional looking cameras filming our routine! But we totally played up the spirit and gave them exactly what they wanted.
After that, Maddy dropped Taylor and I off at Jo'Annes. In the Bay Area, it's basically like a fabric store. We went there because we wanted to make special bows for Breast Cancer Awareness month in October. Even though we didn't really find anything we liked, we know what's there. And we still have a fair bit of time to do some researching. It was a super fun day, I love cheer <3
