Lunch:  Let's have it ready around 1PM (right after dance) for the girls.  There is no limit to the coolers this time.  We are limited to 2 tables in the BHS Media Center.  All lunch items must be cleaned up and taken out of the building by 2 PM (We will definitely need parents to be in charge of getting the food out, but the girls can clean up after themselves). 

The girls really appreciated having a cheering section at UVU!! Thanks for making that happen :)  It would be great to have one again at Bountiful.  I am not sure how large thier facilities are, but if a couple parents are willing to get there a little earlier than the girls will be performing to help save a section that would be great!

Remember that the performing times are subject to change and that you should plan on being in the gym up to an hour before they perform to make sure you dont miss anything.  Thank you parents for all you support!  Let me know of any questions.

Team Competition December 8th ~ UCCU Events Center at UVU
Doors open:  7:30 AM (general public)
Start Time:  8:00 AM
* Our first category does not start until 10:40 AM, but seating does fill up quickly and the girls have requested a cheering section (all parents trying to sit together like all the other schools parents do), so they can see your support :)
Cost: $8  (kids 5 and under are free)  CASH ONLY PLEASE
Tri-Dels will be facing East
No approximate ending time was provided

Military:  Starts at 10:40 AM and Tri-Dels are 11th in the category
Dance:  Starts at 1:45 PM and Tri-Dels are 3rd in the category
Kick:  Starts at 4:30 and Tri-Dels are 19th in the category

*** Start times are approximate and most competitions will get pretty ahead of schedule.  Try To be there at least an hour before they are scheduled to perform so you don't miss anything.  I know it is a little difficult to figure out since they only gave us start times of categories instead of performance times.  We can just do our best to keep eachother updated as to where we are in the competition.

*** Whoever is in charge of the lunch will need to get it to us in ONE COOLER before we get to the competition at 6AM.  I know it is silly, but that is the only time they will allow us to bring our cooler in.  Keep in mind that we will have to take it up two floors and I don't believe they will allow parents to help us :(  Also, we will continue to finish out the year by parents taking turns providing lunch for the girls.  Too many parents have already had thier turn and bought supplies for this weekend for us to start bringing money for lunch or just bringing our own lunches (which isn't allowed anyway).  Let's finish the way we started to make it fair and we can revisit the idea of doing things on our own for next year.  I know most of the girls appreciate eating together as a team (as most other teams do). 

We will be stopping by University Mall on the way to solos as a quick little bonding moment for the girls.  This is where they will be expected to eat dinner.  You may send a sack dinner with your daughter if you do not wish to buy dinner at the food court.  We will also stop quickly after the team competition on saturday for the girls to grab something to eat on the way home (we usually do Wendy's).  Please plan with these things in mind, sending enough money/food for your daughter to eat. 

UVU usually is selling t-shirts,sweatpants, and they have some vendors as we did, so if you would like to bring some spending money to support them and thier competition please do so.

Please let me know of any other questions you may have.  Thanks
