My Project

Hello generous donors! Please help my very talented varsity dance team look their best as they dance to support their school at all home sports games. These ladies perform at football, soccer, volleyball, and basketball games. These pom poms will help them look professional, and will enhance the look of our uniforms, as we add spirit and fun to the games. The tumble track is an inflatable mat where we can safely practice our tricks and stunts. These girls have many financial responsibilities for the team. I would like to lift this from them. Thank you for reading this and choosing to support us! Let's go Starsteppers!
