Plenty to cheer about ...

The Friday, February 1 home game for the Waukon girls basketball team allowed the crowd to witness more than just basketball at the Waukon High School gymnasium, as youth ranging from Pre-Kindergarten on up through eighth grade performed as part of the Little Indian Cheerleading Camp that took place nearly two weeks earlier, Monday, January 21 during a scheduled day off in the Allamakee Community School District. More than 70 youngsters in Pre-Kindergarten through second grade participated in the January 21 camp and then performed during halftime of the February 1 junior varsity game, with nearly 40 more third through eighth graders taking part in the January 21 camp and then performing at halftime of the February 1 varsity game, those performances having been originally scheduled for January 22 but being postponed twice due to winter weather. As pictured in the surrounding photos, a variety of cheers, jumps and stunts were performed to entertain the large crowd in attendance, with the young cheerleaders also getting a chance to share their spirit with players and coaches as they returned to the court from the halftime locker room.
