I had heard all sorts of horror stories of the Spirit Leaders behavior-I never witnessed any of that!
Originally Posted By Darkbeer Alas, first off, THANKS for the INFO... I know a MAJOR Cheer/Dance Group is coming the last week of February... And there are MANY different companies that do offer Cheer/Dance Competitions during the Spring in the Anaheim Area. But be prepared for groups showing up in the next few months... and yes, that includes the Hyperion Theater closing down on weekends to allow the Cheer/Dance Groups to compete. Disney LOVES Money, and will work with many Different Cheer/Dance Groups to make the most profit!

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Thank you for the heads up. I'd forgotten about that. Evidently there was something last weekend too as our DD and family said the parks were full of the girls.

Originally Posted By Darkbeer Yes, many Hotels are sold out are charging larger than normal rates due to the amount of rooms already booked. So a busy weekend at the parks.
Originally Posted By Utahgoof What days will be affected? Just the weekend? Should it be a quiet week until they all get there Friday/Saturday?? I have only encountered a cheer week once before and it was all kinds of "special". I would love to avoid as much as I can. Thanks You are awesome

With the economy being in the toilet USA has had to run two comps at the same time. Each squad has 3 teams,and we all compete on different days,but we all have to arrive on Weds.and Thurs for practice.
