Contingency Plan for Playoff Game on Show Night
We are prepared to support our football team should our exciting playoff journey continue Friday, December 6th. The dress rehearsal would be rescheduled to Wednesday, and the performance would be moved to Thursday evening. Tickets will be transferred to the new date, and the PAC will provide instructions for requesting a refund for attendees who are unable to attend the rescheduled performance.
Should we implement this plan, please be prepared for potential afternoon/evening rehearsals on Monday and Tuesday to make up for any lost rehearsal time. A calendar block has been set aside during the intensive show prep period to accommodate situations like this.
Trainers and Injury Protocols
Training Staff
Please remember that we have not one, but TWO trainers that are assigned to drill team and cheer. Most of you have never met our fabulous trainers because most of you have not been injured! Their names are Joe and Britanee and they are AWESOME! Their clinic for drill team is located above the new station in the PAC.
In addition to injury treatment, they can help provide guidance on exercises for injury prevention and recovery.
If you find that you are injured or need to sit out, a doctor's note must be provided. The doctor's note will be shared with our trainers to help us develop the best plan moving forward.

TOR Updates
Band Meeting
As some of you may know, Band is hosting a meeting for the Tournament of Roses trip. While we are going on the trip, we are not participating in the meeting because we will not have team rosters until March. In March, we will have our own version of this meeting. In addition, trip details including cost, contract, and other information will be distributed at the audition meeting in February. The cost will be similar as band.
Silver Stars are an extension of the Escadrille so they will have the option to attend next year!
Thank you
- Thank you to our current fundraising chair, Melissa Swint, for taking part in an important meeting this Friday regarding fundraising for next year's trip.
