Congratulations Jackie!!!

As I had mentioned earlier in the blog Jackie's dance team has been working very hard on their Zombie routine and it paid off! They participated in State/National competition this weekend and received Superiors for Officers Dance, Pom, Hip Hop and Open category (Zombie).

For Zombie they won the State of Ohio championship and then placed second nationally! Quite an achievement and the girls were fantastic. I imagine that the video of the performance will soon be on the net. If it is (whether I upload it or somebody else does) I'll let you know.

The Zombie dance was the only dance Friday through Sunday where the two level gym was packed at the time of the dance. The team has received quite a bit of recognition and the girls and coaches from the other teams and their families all flocked in to watch the dance...pretty amazing.

We are so very proud of Jackie. She has had a stellar high school academic record and has been involved in so many extra curricular activities. She is a good person to boot which is most important. She will turn 18 in a month and will move on to college in the Fall.
