Lauren in Iowa:
Do you recommend any cheer camps to go to over the summer?

Hey Lauren! It depends on your age and if you are attending individually or as a group. For junior high and high school I highly recommend UCA summer camps, you can find their schedule at http://www.varsity.com/. Depending on where you are in Iowa, you can enroll in the St Louis Rams or the Kansas City Chiefs Cheerleaders youth programs and travel to their stadiums. You might also check your local dance studios, gyms, colleges and high schools to see if they offer cheerleading classes or day camps.

Jamie in Nebraska:
My daughter made the cheerleading squad at school. How do I keep her motivated all year?

Congratulations to your daughter! What a great question... Cheerleading is usually a full-year program, so it is easy to get burned out! One of the best motivations is getting a mentor, like a high school, college or pro cheerleader. Mentors guide new cheerleaders and help them to realize a cheerleader's future potential to earn scholarships or make the pros! Also, as a parent, be sure to attend the games when she is cheering and get to know the other parents. Parents are a great support system, hosting post-game parties, socials, traveling to competitions, and always showing the cheerleaders some love. :)
