Description
We hold tryouts within the first two weeks in May. Applicants are required to fill out a tryout packet and sign it (as well as their parents) and turn it in the week of tryouts, as well as grade checks. Packets are available in the front office weeks prior to tryouts.
Members are required to take a minimum of 3 hours of dance technique per week at any local studio. During Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks we still hold regular practices with adjusted times. Team members have 4 days max of time off to spend with family. We compete regularly during the months of January all the way through STATE in March. We attend a minimum of 3 and a max of 6 competitions per season, including districts and State.
Being a member of the Drill Team is a huge responsibility and takes up a lot of time. It is a large, but very rewarding, commitment.
We are always looking forward to seeing new faces each year. Best of luck to all future applicants.
