Again, we will be meeting at the school at 5:15am, we will leave promptly at 5:30am. Don't be late!
We will do a packing list check at 5:15am upon arrival. The Grantsville Lariettes will be riding down on the bus with us, so we will be putting all our bags underneath the bus. If there is anything you need on the bus, place in a separate small bag you have on the seat with you. Be respectful and good sports. We will be letting them get on the bus first. They will sit at the back so that I can communicate with the bus driver. It will be fun to have a larger cheering section during competition for each other!
Check in starts at 7:30am. We are the very first team again to perform, but this time Officer's are first with the competition starting at 10am.
For Parents, The competition will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. The school address is 50 W. 300 N. Delta. If you haven't been to Delta High School before, drive west on main Street in Delta and turn right (North ) at the 7-11 Store. This will bring you directly to the Palladium parking lot. It doesn't mention what time they will begin letting in spectators, but I am assuming that 9:30am would be a great time to be there. Spectator Fees are Adults $7.00, Students $4.00, Seniors $3.00, 6 & under free. *Don't be afraid to cheer and scream!!! Try to sit together so a big section erupts when our girls step on the floor- it feels wonderful to hear that!
Here are a list of our performance times:
- Officers- 10:10am - very first for the day.... I think that we are just that awesome that all the comps what to have us go first! haha
- HipHop- 11:14am - a pretty quick change officers!!!
- Military- 1:30pm- we are close to the end in this division which is ALWAYS best!!!!
- Dance- 2:55pm- also a pretty quick change
- Character- 4:30pm
Surprisingly, we are against a whopping 8 teams in our main divisions; there are more 3A than any other at this competition. I thought this would be a smaller competition, but I'm assuming everyone was thinking that resulting in quite a large one! That's only 2 less than UVU! I will be giving each girl a list of teams/schedule tomorrow at practice.
Stallionettes:
- We will not be getting any practice time on the competition floor. We are going to have to do our very best to "feel each other" and not the floor!!! If there is time, we will go in the stands and mark from up high.
- There are many quick changes. If you aren't in every dance, be ready to help. Listen and stay focused so things can move efficiently!
- Jessica will be posting a packing list and Veronica will be posting hair instructions. *Those that used egg whites at the last competition, their hair stayed, and looked better than those that didn't. This is mandatory. Those that don't use egg whites will result in the team running. (It is small things like this that really make a difference AND it saves time at the competition avoiding re-application of gel/hairspray.) Those that did it said that their hair was so soft after they washed it out- it truly is really good for your hair- I promise!!!
- Again, it states that food/drink are not allowed in the dressing rooms, but i'm okay with you bringing "clean" snacks and bottled water.*Please do not make a mess- this competition requires a $50 cleaning deposit that we may/or may not get back when they give us our judges sheets/checkout at the end of competition. *We will have a classroom for our dressing room, which is how the rest of our competitions (except for State) will be. Do not touch anything in the classroom- it should look exactly the same at check out as when we get there.
- Since Officers is first, I will be having other members do our shoe check and music check. I will be having Olivia and Mckaylee do shoe check and Erin and Caitlyn do music check. Please get with the officers that have done this before to make sure you understand what you need to bring/do. Both checks will begin at 8am, shoe check at the announcers table and music at the sound system. By doing this, our officers will have plenty of time to get dressed, stretch, and review. Thanks in advance Olivia, Mckaylee, Erin and Caitlyn!
- There will be a place for us to warm up/ review but it is first come first serve. Please be respectful and listen so we can be quick! (We did a pretty good job a that at UVU!)
- Make sure you bring money for dinner! We will be stopping for food on the way home!
The competition is looking to end around 5:15pm with winning soloists performances, drill down and awards to follow. I'm thinking the competition will end around 6:30pm.
Yay for our 2nd competition!
Can't wait to see all you parents there!!!
