Cheer Rep 2010

These past 2 weeks have been so busy, fun, and have flown by. Our first day of traveling was extremely long. We got up at 3 am on Saturday to head to LAX and didn't get to Montreal until 9 pm because of all the delays throughout the day. We were exhausted when we finally got there and the very next morning camp began. Monday through Friday were nonstop teaching days for camp number 1. It was very tiring but at the same time very enjoyable. I taught stunts this year which was a nice change from baskets last year.

Wednesday nights were the coaches hang out night. The first week the theme was a traditional Quebec Christmas and the second was through the decades. Both were SO hilarious and fun. Stephania and I weren't exactly prepared for the decades theme so we went as 2010 :)

Thursday nights were pie nights. I was picked by a girl named Allie the first week; however I won the game and was able to pie her in the face :) .... the second week I wasn't so lucky.

 

What a mess!

Friday was the talent show night. Some of the girls performed their talents, the camp counselors did a dance, and the coaches performed a dance to Footloose to end the evening.


On Saturday we had the BIG performance for the cheerleaders' parents where the girls showed off all they learned throughout the week. It was so hectic and tiring but all the girls did great during my stunt rotation. After the girls were all finished with their rotations the coaches performed.

My second trip to Cheer Rep was even better than the first. It was great to see the friends I had made the year prior... we all picked up exactly where we left off. Thanks to all the coaches and cheerleaders of Cheer Rep 2010 for making my little work vacation so much fun!

Canada Bound

Wanna get away? Why yes, yes I do! & what better of a place to go then to Canada? Tomorrow I'll be heading to Montreal to teach a cheer camp. I'll be gone for 2 full weeks so that sadly means no new blog posts for me for a while, but I am very excited to go and will definitely write about my trip when I get back. These 2 weeks will be a much needed vacation from all the craziness. This is the 2nd year I'll be coaching at this camp. The first year was so much fun and I am sure this year will only top last. Who knows, maybe I'll even be on the shirt again? lol

We are literally in the middle of the woods.... TONS of trees, a lake, a grocery store about 30 minutes away, and little to no cell reception. It's definitely not like the cheer camps we have in the states but it's an experience I thoroughly enjoyed and am looking forward to. The Canadian coaches and girls are all extremely nice, I really can't wait to see them again.
