PDC Camp

It was back to the grind the very next day after returning from our Mangelson Family Vacation.  I had to be up and at it at 7 a.m. for another drill team camp.  We had our annual private PDC camp.  This year one of our instructors was one of our own, Savannah Martin.  She was an Elleve the first two years and was the captain her senior year.  She is now a BYU Cougarette and is teaching for PDC this summer.

We started off the day with technique and learning routines.  The only pic I have from day 1 is of the team at lunch!
 Here they are, enjoying their lunch.  I'm so grateful for team moms that take care of all the lunch arrangements during this camp.  They also gave the girls a little gift each day too.
 Day 2 - they start of the day by telling the girls what the theme of the day is.
 Lunch time is always fun too!
 The team worked really hard and learned three routines that we can use for halftime or assemblies and some fun combos too.  Here they are with Savannah and Alisha, their instructors.
 Crazy pic
 It was really fun to have a former Elleve teaching us.  She is also our technique teacher and so she knows the girls and what their individual strengths and weaknesses are.
 Performing the routines for the parents and friends.
 They did pretty good for just learning them in two and half days.
 These girls won awards - Katelyn won Most Improved; Tori won Best Showmanship; Madi & Kenna won Hardest Workers; Emily Kessinger won Best Technique; and Brandi won Most Spirit.
It was another successful PDC Camp - now on to another successful year!
