Back stage is a flutter of activities, as the cheerleaders eat lunch and prepare to go on stage. Waiting to go on, this girl takes a peek at the audience to find her family and friend. Each cheerleader walks the runway (see below) in a beautiful gown, wearing her sash and tiara. Some girls wear their Homecoming or Prom gowns; other girls borrow a dress to wear for the event. (If you are one of our former State Finalists and would like to see you photo on our WEB SITE send it to us.)
