I think we should save secret sister for Monday because not everyone will be able to make practice today. If you all feel strongly otherwise, contact everyone and let them know.

It is on
We will have practice today from 4:00 - 5:30. I will be there at 3:30 if anyone wants to watch video from league.
Friday Practice?
WOW two fall breaks in two weeks. Amazing. No one could have predicted this.
At this time, I do not know if we can have practice today.
If we can, I will post here and send out text messages to all of the girls I have numbers for in my phone.
If we can have practice, I would like to keep it quick and light. I also realize that everyone may not be able to make it, so if you can great, if not, it is okay. The number one priority is to be safe.
The plan, if practices are permitted, we will have practice today from 4:00 - 5:30.
As for secret sister, at this point, it is probably best to do it Monday after tear down.
Remember the bus will leave Ponderosa 8:00 am tomorrow, we will do a pick up at Chaparral at 8:15 am.
Thee meet starts at 12:00. There will be an admission fee, but I have not been notified as to how much.
I have the bus leaving Green Mountain at 5:00.

School tomorrow is canceled = no practice
Since school tomorrow is canceled and all after and before school activities are canceled, there will be no gymnastics practice tomorrow, Thursday, October 29.
If we have school on Friday, practice will be at the regular time 4:00 - 6:00. We will do secret sister on Friday as well.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Check out the Gymnastics Minute I posted earlier - it is really good.

A Halloween Regional
It is confirmed, the meet is on Saturday, October 31.
Here is the website http://sc.jeffco.k12.co.us/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectionid=294
The warm ups are at 10:00, the meet will start at 12:00.
As for the bus on Saturday, I will not be picking up at each high school.
Right now, I think the bus will leave Ponderosa at 8:00 am, we will then do a pick up at Chaparral at 8:15. That will give us an hour to drive to Green Mountain, we should get there by 9:15. We will probably be able to get into the gym somewhere between 9:15 and 9:30.
I need as many non-competing girls as possible to come to Regionals. We will need to flash our own scores. At regionals, there are four judges on each event. That means four flashers on every event, the more help the better.
A couple of questions for the girls....
1. Should we do secret sister on Thursday or Saturday?
2. Do we want to go to either Chalkbox or Castle Rock on Friday if I can get gym time?
3. Do you all want to wear the all black leos on Saturday since it is Halloween?
Text me or e-mail me with ideas.
Remember Monday, Nov 2 is mandatory attendance. The wrestlers are coming to help with tear down. They will move most of the floor, we will move most of the mats and equipment. We will vote for team awards once we are done moving equipment.
Gymnasts not going to state will need to turn in all gear that was checked out to them.
All Local Value Cards or money will be due on Monday.
Some gymnasts ordered warm ups, they have been in for 4 weeks. I need payment for the warm ups from the girls that ordered them.
Hopefully, we will get some banquet info out soon.

8:00 Post
I have no official confirmation that the meet today is postponed. I have tried contacting my athletic director, I have checked the CHSAA website, Green Mountain website and Douglas County website. None of which have given me more information.
At this time, plan on the re-schedule happening.
I will post again at 9:00, whether I have more information or not.

Regionals 10-28-2009
It is not official, but since both Douglas County Schools are closed and Jefferson County Schools are closed, I think the meet today will be re-scheduled for Saturday morning.
Once I know for certain that the meet today is re-scheduled, I will post here. Hopefully that will be by 8:00.
If the meet is re-scheduled, we will have practice Thursday and Friday. I do not know when we will finish secret sister. I need to talk to BC, Alli and Gioia about that.
Since the girls will have some free time, they should brain storm people they can sell their Local Value cards to.
Some you tube videos to watch as well...

Tuesday Line Ups - Tentative
Overall, today was a great practice, I am really happy with what I saw. The girls appear to be fired up.
A reminder - if a gymnast does not go to school for at least half of the school day, she is not eligible to compete and is not permitted to practice. This is school district policy.
The line-ups for tomorrow are tentative, with sickness and injuries, I am hoping for the best, but if girls are unable to compete, I will move others into the line up.
JV Vault 1. Kristen 2. Emma 3. Haley 4. Jessica B 5. Jessica L 6. Tasie 7. Jordan 8. Devan 9. Maddie 10. Alyssa 11. Brittni 12. Courtney Varsity 1. Kaylee 2. Gioia 3. Alexis 4. Liz 5. Andie 6. Alli

Gym Notes for the week of Oct 5
There have been a lot of girls out sick. I hope everyone is getting healthy, rests up, and enjoys their homecoming. Attendance rules apply to the meet on Tuesday.
Thank you to the girls who stayed and helped put the gym back together. I appreciate the help and we were done by 3:45. The PE dance classes also appreciate it as well.
Next week workout details...
Monday - The team will tumble and then do routines on the events they are competing.
Tuesday - Home meet with Niwot and Elizabeth. Warm ups at 4:00. March in will be at 5:50. It is Senior Night. Everyone who is eligible to compete will.
In order to be eligible for the meet Oct 6, the requirement is: in the gym two times since September 29.
Wednesday - Trick day. The girls should come to practice. These are some of the most productive days we have in the gym. Unfortunately, there is a group of girls who continually miss this practice. Trick days are just as important as the practices before a meet.
Thursday - Trick day.
Friday - at a gym with a pit? I need to ask the girls about this. I will post more information once the girls and I decide on a course of action.
October 6 will be the last meet for the junior varsity and a few varsity girls. These girls should continue to come to practice and work on skills. I will outline the expectation for these gymnasts on Wednesday next week.
If gymnasts are going to be out of town during Fall Break. I would appreciate an e-mail from parents so I can start planning the line up for league.
I need Local Value Cards either sold or returned to me. The next gymnast who sells all of her cards and brings the money to me, will win a leotard.
Please check out my post on September 27 for more details on upcoming dates.

Please do not schedule any doctors appointments on this day. All gymnasts are expected to help with tear down. It goes quickly if everyone shows up. We also vote for team awards. Gymnasts who are not at tear down are not eligible to receive an award at the banquet.Please check out my post on September 27 for more details on upcoming dates.

Pep assembly, tour jetes and Strugs
Tomorrow is the pep assembly. The Ghostbusters routine is really fun. I cannot wait to see the girls preform it.
The girls should arrive at Ponderosa anywhere between 12:45 and 1:45. Earlier if they want to warm up on the mats. We perform at 2:11. Come to my classroom if you arrive early between 12:45 and 1:00, otherwise head to the gym.
We are going to wear our warm up leo with black shorts.
This is a great link to learning tour jetes and Strugs.
