If you had asked me in 2007 if I would ever cheer at a football game again, I would have laughed. Then my alma mater started the "Return of the Cheerleaders" for Homecoming. While we didn't don our old skirts & tops, we did wear school colors and cheer with pride. It was fun, but I did feel a a little left out. A few of the girls made shirts & wore leftover skirts, that 3 of us were not included in. Kind of a bummer, but if that's the worst thing that happened, then no biggee. For the most part, our team was inclusive, nothing like the backstabbing cheerleaders you see on Glee or Bring It On or Hellcats (yes I admit I watch the cheesy CW cheerleading tv show).
Bekah was one of my residents (well actually Christy's resident) my sophomore year. It was fun seeing her again. She is a sweetheart. She's class of 2008, I'm 2007.
Max was 2006 and Geri was 1990. It was so cool to have her join us. Her daughter made her an adorable shirt!
There were other girls too, but I didn't get any pics. If I steal some from facebook, I will post them. Thanks to Coach Danelle for putting this together again! And -- Go Bulldogs! (I am amazed at how many cheers actually came back to me!)
