Two PHS cheerleaders perform in Orlando

Special to PN Meghan Herrington and Katie Belle Boyer from Pelahatchie High School (PHS) traveled to the Universal Orlando Resort in Orlando, Florida November 22 – November 2, 2020 with high school cheerleaders and dancers from across the country to represent the camp brands of Varsity Spirit in the Varsity Spirit Spectacular.   The individuals invited to perform were a part of the All-American program at Universal Cheerleaders Association (UCA) and National Cheerleaders Association (NCA) summer camps across the country. All-Americans are chosen based on superior athletic and leadership skills. Only the top 12% of athletes who attended camp earned the chance to perform in the holiday spectacular.   The individuals invited to perform also included a select group of ninth to twelfth grade captains, co-captains and officers who attended a Varsity Spirit summer camp hosted by UCA, NCA, Universal Dance Association (UDA), National Dance Alliance (NDA), United Spirit Association (USA) and Urban Cheerleading Experience (UCE).    Herrington and Boyer performed in an exclusive performance at the Universal Orlando Resort. Besides enjoying a sunny trip to Orlando, performers had the opportunity to meet cheerleaders and dancers from across that nation and enjoy a magical holiday season at the Universal Orlando Resort parks.    Herrington also earned the distinguished UCA All American Cheerleader title before attending the event.
