On the third night of camp, the most exciting USA staff gave a rally called, Spirit Spectacular where they put on skits and cheered and schools had the opportunity to show off routinesfskits, Pittsburg's squads performed a routine to, l'm Ready by KAYNO and dazzled everyone with the expertise and spirit. Yvonne Beals, Toni Blackman and Terri Bostick, dressed as Aretha Franklin and the Rethettes, lip-synched their hearts out to R-E-S-P-E-C-T. They received a standing ovation and left everyone in tears. Varsity cheerleaders and songleaders both received Superior trophies. This camp was different from the past ones as the girls attended camp to have fun and the only award they expected was the spirit award. However, they did a lot better. Letana Mitchell added, This year's seniors were all wild and crazy and they were not afraid of what people would say about them. 1.
