LOL, this thread certainly didn't go the way I thought it would but, I guess they never do. @12stepCheermom It has been a long time since I have inquired but, at one time HS received a sports budget for security, on site ambulance for football, grounds keeping, helmets, certain sport uniforms, goals, transportation to away games, etc. It used to be concessions and fundraisers were used to get newer uniforms, pay for camps, regional and state, etc. So none of our tax dollars are going to sport programs anymore? If so, I'm truly surprised. I was told the reason our cheerleaders don't always have transportation to and from away games is because, they fall under "activity" status (GA).
I really didn't intend this thread to take on the "are we a sport or not" avenue, again but, I guess I did a very poor job at beginning the topic. My original thoughts were "My neighbor just compared us to the WWE, do we resemble that?" Just as I'm getting the image of Hulk Hogan All Stars out of my head, you all give me the french maid Oui Oui All Stars

Well I'm in NC where the legislature abhors public schools and those who work in them. Our schools are barely funded, athletics aren't funded at all. Multiple districts have already eliminated middle school athletics because they can't afford them and my travel budget for athletics will be exhausted by the end of September. Football gates are basically the only way we can pay for all of our athletic programs.LOL, this thread certainly didn't go the way I thought it would but, I guess they never do. @12stepCheermom It has been a long time since I have inquired but, at one time HS received a sports budget for security, on site ambulance for football, grounds keeping, helmets, certain sport uniforms, goals, transportation to away games, etc. It used to be concessions and fundraisers were used to get newer uniforms, pay for camps, regional and state, etc. So none of our tax dollars are going to sport programs anymore?

I still don't understand how the parents of these kids allowed that. What flavor of Kool-Aide did the owner give those parents??Prepare to be shocked.

I didn't understand either. It now in 2013 this would still be considered risque, how about this was in the 2007 season! Crazy. Their choreography was questionable as well.
Cheer Savannah is a great gym but I still can't get past the fact that they did this, haha

Omg this. This times a million. This is so perfect, thank you. I'm so excited about this post I want to frame it.

Another thing we're in the same boat on. Sports here are sooooooo limited. Idp is playing volleyball now - she wants to play in high school but really, are they even gonna have volleyball by then? My take is if they're not going to educate 90% of the kids in Chicago they ought to at least let them play a sport!
For more than half the kids here, athletics are their only hope. (Pretty pathetic school system when sports are the only way the kids can succeed!)But yes, we'll rant another day.
