From the desk of the Booster Club President: Sherri Gearen…

Dear Booster Club Members:

So much has happened and time has passed so quickly. Everyone's hard work has provided us with: The first ever Cheerleading calendar, it was a lot of hard work to create, but we pulled it off and the calendars looked great! We provided the coaches’ fund $2,000 towards bills and supplies, a bus to the Dallas Cowboy football game where our cheerleaders performed at the half-time show, treasury again remained in the black all year, a second year scholarship is being written for a graduating cheerleader, and most importantly new friendships.

I would like to thank all of the cheerleaders, coaches, parents and Booster Club board members for all your hard work and sweat over the year, you are greatly appreciated!

I wish everyone good luck next year and I hope you succeed in all you strive to accomplish.

Thanks again!!!

Sherri Gearen
