48 o Las Seelies Getting up from a kneeling position, the drill team executed different level changes and variety in each performance. Dance Company Members of Dance Company gained much from their involve- ment this year. They not only pro- gressed as dancers but as people. Trudging through the halls day by day lugging boxes of candy bars, selling carnagrams, and making posters wasn’t all that Dance Company did. They pre- sented a dance concert, danced locally, and performed in Mexico. In order to succeed in these activi- ties members of Dance Company not only had to dance, but they had to choose music, choreo- graph, costume, block, teach the dances and practice, practice, practice! Practice meant spending a lot of time together. They drove to school in the dark of night (morn- ings), eyelids stretched open with curlers. The more time they spent together and the harder they worked, the more committed they became. Each girl progressed as her level of commitment in- creased. They learned to respect others and even the worst clash- ing of personalities was overcome. They became close friends and had lots of fun being crazy togeth- Glossy black and silver satin and red se- quins sparkled as the Las Seelies twirled their capes in an impressive new perfor- mance. receiving loud audience cheers. er. Participation in the Arts defi- nitely has its rewards as Dance Company members will attest. Las Seelies Warming up a frosty car at 5:30 a.m., stretching sore muscles, and jarring a half asleep body awake with jump splits became a way of life for the Las Seelies. However, the rewarding friendships, laugh- ter, and fun far outweighed the sacrifice of sleep and hard work- outs. Striving for precision, the Las Seelies shared a sisterly unity un- matched by other drill teams. By spending countless hours together in practices and group activities, the Las Seelies and advisor Karen Miller became a close family of individuals working as one whole. They dazzled their audiences with polished performances, winning over enthusiastic crowd support not only at Alta but also at the Region, State, and Northwest Drill Team competitions. Determination and unity carried the team on to perform good rou- tines in every kind of circum- stance. Working together as equals for a common goal, the 84- 85 Las Seelies were a special type of athletes with physical talents and winning attitudes combined, which added up to a great year of success and pride in performing like no other team in Gtah, carry- ing on the Las Scelle tradition of past years. Smiling with confidence, the Las Seelies performed with high energy and precision for their introductory march at the first home game. PREMIERE PERFORMERS
