Lion Cheerleaders Go to Summer Camp
The Bluestem High School cheerleaders attended the UCA Cheer Camp in Emporia this past week. The camp include over 400 cheerleaders from around the state. The girls worked hard competing as a large varsity squad against other schools with up to 19 members. They received a Superior trophy for overall camp behavior and an Excellent Award for each of the six other evaluations throughout the camp. The evaluations included sideline chant, cheer, game-time prep, and an Xtreme Routine.
Six girls competed for the All-American Award and Shelby Lynn Benton was chosen from the Lions squad as an All-American. Shelby has been invited to cheer in the Thanksgiving Day Parade in Houston, Texas this November. Please be sure to check out the entire picture gallery of the girls in action.
