What memories! I was the Captain of the Twirling Squad in my High School ( a very long time ago!) I marched in many parades and laugh out loud when I look at old pictures. I too tried out for the Cheerleading Squad but didn't make it. There was always such rivalry between the two squads in our high school. Then lo and behold, one of my daughters became a cheerleader in her high school. So, we still tease each other as to who are more talented. (I think the twirlers are!)
