Good Afternoon Everyone!

Our next competition is this Saturday, March 26th, at River Ridge HS. Visit the website for competition details, map and schedules: http://www.sapaonline.net/events/132 . The cost for spectators to view the show is $9 per person. Thank you to Brooke's mom and brother who offered to assist with the floor on and off the performance area this Saturday. We probably could still use some more assistance in case the unit that Pierre has coordinated with is unable to assist us,
