We will be meeting at the high school at 5:15am. Please be there on time with everything you need for competition. Our bus will leave at 5:30am. Please go through your packing list with a family member the night before to make sure you have everything.
I will have Jessica post the packing list for everything you need. Make sure you bring your big rolling bags!
You will come with your hair and most makeup done before you arrive at 5:15am. There are limited mirrors at UVU and we are very first in hip hop. No exceptions! Plan accordingly!
We should arrive at UVU around 6:45am. When we arrive, you will need to get everything off the bus, pay attention and follow quickly. There will be a lot of teams. Please be respectful, be quiet, and have good sportsmanship.
After arriving, the team will get in their first costume, finalizing hair, makeup, pinning, while Janica, Veronica, and Katie do music checks and shoe checks. We will have about 10-15 minutes of floor time before the competition starts. This is a very crucial time to mark our spacing. Please NO talking during this time. We want to be able to use it wisely and be as effective as possible.
If you have to go anywhere during the competition,you must go with a buddy. Approval to go somewhere without the team must be approved by a coach.
Remember this week to begin preparations:
- All nail polish needs to be removed.
- Your fingernails are clipped, can't be passed your fingertips.
- You have your hair nets matching the color of your hair (I'd buy a couple!)
- You are stocked up on bobby pins
- You have small safety pins (not too small, but smaller so they aren't so noticeable.)
- You have competition gore boots and black Jazz pants. They cannot have any holes!
- Many of you have stated that you have run out of black eyeliner. *Black eyeliner came for free with the bags, this was not part of your competition makeup. Make sure you have black eyeliner and mascara. (I will be providing you fake eyelashes.)
We have purchased the box lunches. They asked I tell you what we ordered so you know what you got, that way you don't take the wrong lunch. We have: 13 Turkey, 5 Ham, and 1 Beef. Please make sure you remember what you ordered!
Alternates- diligently go over all the choreography and spots/formations. We may need you!
Please be working on our specialty items: headstands, al la secondes, fouettes, leaps, splits, etc...
I am so excited. We have worked so hard. Keep it up girls- its almost here! Love all of you!
