<strong>Cheer</strong>leading <strong>Handbook</strong> <strong>2013</strong><br />
Our parade staging area is usually on Westpark Rd, located off E. Franklin Street. All<br />
participating cheerleaders need to be dropped off near the old casannos parking lot by 9:30<br />
a.m. in order to practice cheers performed during the parade. They are easier chanting cheers<br />
so everyone can catch on fairly quickly.<br />
Parents need to pick up cheerleaders immediately after the parade. Our pick-up area is<br />
the parking lot on the Virginia Ave side of Cline Elementary School. Please do not wait until<br />
the parade is over to pick up your cheerleader. Please do not be late!<br />
Head Coaches are welcome and encouraged to attend! We will need volunteers to walk in the<br />
parade with the cheerleaders. Coaches wear dark shorts and a white or gold top.<br />
In the event of severe weather, a decision about participation will be made the morning of the<br />
parade.<br />
8.2 Picture Day<br />
The date for Picture day will be August 11 th . Pictures will be taken of the sideline cheer<br />
squads, comp squads, individuals, 4-6 year veterans (6 th grade only), siblings, and possibly a<br />
combined cheer and football team. The location will be announced during cheer camp. All<br />
coaches will receive a time schedule. <strong>Cheer</strong> Head coaches will determine the uniform pieces<br />
worn, and the pose the squad will use for the squad picture. <strong>Cheer</strong>leaders are not permitted<br />
to change uniform pieces for their individual pose as there is not enough time for changing.<br />
Envelopes containing different portrait packages are distributed to all coaches. Please call<br />
your coach if you do not receive one. A separate photo envelope must be completed for<br />
veteran and sibling pictures. <strong>Cheer</strong>leaders must be in the sixth grade to be considered a<br />
veteran. Payment for pictures is due on picture day.<br />
Centerville Wee Elk Programs are sold at the Spirit Shop for a nominal fee.<br />
