School Spirit…Pass it On!
Celebrate School Spirit Teams and Join Us in this National Day of Spirit and Service!
Varsity wants you to participate in National School Spirit Day on September 10, 2010!
How? Do at least 4 hours of community service in the week leading up to National School Spirit Day, September 6-10, 2010. Tell us about what you’re doing to make a difference, and you’ll be entered to win a School Spirit Prize Pack from Varsity.
Who? YOU! If every cheerleading and dancer attending a Varsity camp participates, together we can contribute over one million hours of service across the country!
Why? Well, we know how much you do to support your school’s athletic teams throughout the year, but this is a day to make sure everyone else knows the power of cheerleaders and dancers!
Here’s What You Can Win!
- $1000 in school supplies to be donated to your school from Carolina Pad
- Practice cheer mat (single roll) from Ross Athletic Supply
- 250 Rooter poms, 150 sets of Thunderstix, and a Power Break-Through Banner from Varsity Spirit Fashions
Also, Inside Cheerleading Magazine will select 10 stories of spirit and service to be featured in the magazine!
National School Spirit Day began in 2009 to celebrate leadership among cheerleaders and dancers! Help us shine a spotlight on the character that being on a cheerleading or dance team builds through service to your community on National School Spirit Day!
What Can You Do? Here are some ideas!
- Visit a nursing home and perform simple cheers for the residents
- Offer to clean up the school grounds – pull weeds, pick up trash, plant flowers, tear down old signs
