Do you cheer? Tumble? Dance?

Know someone who does?

Or just want to support the development of local talent?

Then take a moment to answer a survey designed to gauge interest in the immediate construction of a local high school level all-star cheer squad, as well as classes focusing on cheer, tumbling, dance, and more.

These classes range from ones for little children to adults, as well as athletes with special needs.

A group of Whidbey Islanders is also seeking experienced athletes looking to coach, volunteers to help with fundraising and advertising, and sponsors.

Donation of physical items such as spaces to train (high ceilings are a bonus) and help for athletes unable to participate because of financial restrictions are high on their list of things to do.

To help the group gauge interest levels, pop over to the form below.

You can also text Tina Provoncha at (360) 672-0058 or email her at tina813marie@gmail.com.

Falcon spiker coach honored by WIAA

One Whidbey, kicking everyone else’s fannies.

The three public high schools on The Rock are like siblings — they may squabble all the time amongst themselves, but someone from outside gives any of them the stink eye, it’s time to unite and drop the smack-down.

Or jointly celebrate when one does well.

Works either way.

Today the spotlight swings towards Langley, with the news South Whidbey High School varsity volleyball coach Mandy Jones has been honored by the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association.

The organization’s salute to coaches for October, sponsored by the US Army, includes the Falcon spiker guru alongside leaders from Clover Park, Renton, and Fife.

All places that wish they were Whidbey.

“I want to thank my team for always being like a second family to me.

“They have always brightened my day with all their goofy shenanigans and squirrely behavior.”

As she bowed out Thursday, Coupeville High School cheer captain Hayley Thomas spoke for many of her fellow seniors.

Family was a recurring theme as the Wolf 12th graders (and band member Sienna Peabody) were honored for their contributions.

As they put in one more night on the CHS sideline, Coupeville’s seniors marinated in the moment.

“I will forever cherish the time I’ve spent with this beautiful group of people,” Isabella Schooley said.

“And I will never forget the wonderful moments that have made this experience so rewarding.”

Powerhouses, one and all.

Coupeville High School cheerleaders are among the best in the biz, mixing school spirit with killer work ethic and the ability to holler loud enough to fire up an entire stadium or gymnasium.

As we head towards the final home football game next Thursday, CHS Yearbook Advisor (and noted photo bug) Jackie Saia delivers a collection of snappy pics capturing the Wolves at work.
