2011 season
wow.
its here already.
getting ready for paws rewind 2011! i cant believe that this is going to be our third year! its pretty amazing.
just a few things to start,
we are going to start having "try outs" starting monday, october 4th.
now what i mean by try outs is that if you decide to come, you will be trying the activity out. coming to these practices does not mean that you have officially made your commitment, it simply means that you are holding an interest. we will work with you on flag and rifle basics, i dont think that sabres will be used in our show this year. i will be teaching technique and the how tos.
the way that winterguard goes is we stretch for the first fifteen minutes to a half hour, depending on how early we start a practice. they will be after school on mondays once a week through october, then when we move into november, we will start having practices on mondays and thursdays, and when we hit december and the rest of the season *through march* practices will be mondays, tuesdays and thursdays. practices usually run from right after school to 5:30 *remember, we usually dont start til 3/3:30 due to travel and the need for food.
we will warm up with a short basics block and then begin learning work and drill.
what is different from marching season is that we only focus on one song all season. this year our show is going to be a 20s flapper theme and to a song called sing sing sing. its gonna be cute and fun to perform. the cut i have is 4 minutes long.
we will probably learn just work up until winter break and then add drill to it when we get back. our first show will be sometime in the end of january, the dates will be posted later when i have them for sure.
for those who are worried about the complicatedness of the work, dont worry. we will work on a section until it is clean. if for some reason, you all are still having issues with a part, well simply change it. its not uncommon. the show will be altered right up until championships. last year our flag line came in third place in the state. when i looked at the recap, we had the most complicated work of our class and the highest achievement level. what really killed us was the fact that we only had 6 girls and didnt have any big general effect moments. if we can get at least 10 girls, we will be rockin! i have no doubts.
winterguard is a lot of fun and some pretty crazy times and i really hope that all of you consider it. its nothing to be afraid of, but also must be taken seriously at the right times. we are all sisters and that is what makes us strong.
^_^ i cant wait for the season to start!
