Hero's Day!Monday I left for cheerleading camp at 5:45 a.m. The camp was at UT Knoxville so we had a little ways to drive. Hailey Jones and Haley Teeters rode with me down there and it was fun. We talked a lot and were excited to be going. There are four seniors this year Me, Hailey Jones, Haley Teeters and Raven Roberts. We were pretty upset when our coach decided that we would all be in separate rooms. She said that the other girls needed an older girl in their room to keep them on task.
When we got there on Monday we had to unload our stuff and carry it to the building across the street that was our dorm. It took forever to get keys but when we did we ventured up to the third floor and started unpacking in our gross dorms. This year our dorms only had an entry way with the bathroom on the left and the shower on the right. Then two rooms. No one liked to shower out in the open but atleast it had a door. Monday afternoon we headed out to the indoor football field to get started with camp. Its so hot in there. After we had been there for a few hours we had to move to the un air conditioned gym across the street because Peyton Manning was coming the field. How dumb!
our home pom outfit!Monday night we performed our Home Pom and we did awesome!! We won first place with it! After we performed my mom went home and we went back to the dorms to shower and go to bed.
Tuesday we went back to the field early that morning to get started again. We learned the extreme routine and a cheer to be evaluated on that night. We didnt do very good on our cheer but thats okay.
Wednesday wasn't a good day at first. My stunt group was trying to full and Hannah(flyer) knocked Haley(base) out. Haley fell on the ground and didnt get up. She hurt her hip and said it hurt her to walk. So we had to find vans to ride in for the rest of the day. That was hard because cheerleaders are supposed to walk the enitre time they are at camp. But later that night we went to the gym and when we walked in the door my mom, Lisa Jones, and Shannon Teeters suprised us! They came to watch the seniors try out for all american. even though no one from Warren County made it. Oh well. After we tried out for that we were about to go back to the dorms and Makayla did her back hand spring when she did she hyperextended her elbow. But she was tough and still the stunts and everything.
Thursday, the final day of camp. We were back at the gym practicing to do our extreme routine. We had to perform it in front of everyone and our parents were there. I was pretty bummed because tyler said he couldnt come, but I was standing there talking to my mom and guess who is see walking in, my Tyler! I took off running to him and gave him a huge hug. I missed him so much. and it was so sweet of him to suprise me :)
