These four ladies took on their very first Kansas Shrine Bowl Cheer Camp! They were all-in from Wednesday afternoon to late Saturday night. As their coach, I don’t think I could more proud of how much time and energy they put in throughout a 4 day span. It’s more than just a camp. All proceeds from the cheer/band/football camps go to support families that receive life-changing surgeries from the Shriner’s Hospital located in Saint Louis, MO. After learning a variety of cheers/chants, new stunts, and an All Star routine, they got to show off their new skills during the Kansas Shrine Bowl football game Saturday between East Side and West Side as well as perform during halftime. Our motto for the week… #forthekids

This year, our K-12 PE teacher, Sarah Staten, took a leap and applied for and received the $5,000 grant from the South Central Community Foundation. This grant allowed the purchase of 30 bicycles, 100 helmets, and necessary items for maintenance. The goal is to incorporate cycling into the PE curriculum, distribute helmets to students without one, and provide bicycles for use during our annual bike ride to Raymond.
