  • Football Performance Rules & Reminders!

    Because we went through everything super fast at practice, here is the info in case you might be forgetting something!

    What to Bring/Wear:

    Be at MHCC NO LATER than 5pm! If you think you might be late, tell your parents 4:45pm just to be safe. If you are late, you do not dance. No exceptions!

    Wear your black performance pants, black leotard, black socks, dance sneakers and blue sparkly performance tops. Please wear something warm over this, a zip up hoodie, warm-up pants, etc. It is going to be cold!! Please come with your hair half up, anyway you like. Makeup needs to be darker than usually so we can see you from the stands. If you arent sure on this, please do your best at home and bring your makeup with you to the game, we will help you. Absolutely no jewelry of any kind please!

    Please bring a change of clothes with you for after the performance. Bethany and Erin will be collecting the costumes once halftime is over, so please prepare for that. Also, bring your secret sister gift to the game and dont forget about your locker poster! :)

    Rules:

    We will sit together as a team for the first half of a game. This is a tradition, so please dont invite your friends, boyfriends, etc. to come sit with us. You will have the opportunity to hang out with them once halftime is over.

    There will be no eating or drinking in your costume, so please make sure to have something over your outfit. Warm-ups, etc. will work just fine. Dinner will be provided by the booster club, so you do not need to bring dinner with you.

    After halftime, Bethany and Erin will be leaving. So please take your stuff with you! We are not in charge of it, and wont be sitting there any longer. We would hate to have anything happen to your belongings so please take it to your car, have your parents take it with them, or carry it with you.

     

    But most importantly, we are so excited to see you girls perform tomorrow!!! :)
