We share this time with Pride a National Champion group of high school students who take a strong stand against substance abuse, bullying, violence and more; communicating their message

A great leader must be able to take their eyes off themselves in order to see the needs of others. We believe that teaching young people the importance of this is vital to our future.

In 2018 we joined efforts with Haven; an organization that provides shelter and care for those who have been abused.

We look forward to seeing our athletes step up again this summer in finding ways to help others.

We share this time with Pride a National Champion group of high school students who take a strong stand against substance abuse, bullying, violence and more; communicating their message through music and skits. Leadership is an essential part of cheerleading and is demonstrated not only in our schools but communities as well. A great leader must be able to take their eyes off themselves in order to see the needs of others. We believe that teaching young people the importance of this is vital to our future. Therefore, each year we incorporate a program which allows them to impact the lives of others through service. Utilizing this sport to make a difference is one of the best parts of camp! In 2018 we joined efforts with Haven; an organization that provides shelter and care for those who have been abused. It was incredible to see our teams contribute in such a large way, recognizing those who have been through really tough times.
