Garment ID, Beach, Hems, & Pics

Garment ID...make sure you SHARPIE every item with your name or initials. Find the tags or an inside spot that WILL NOT SHOW. Be VERY VERY VERY CAREFUL that you do not allow the sharpie to "bleed" aka damage the look of any item. Sadly, stuff does get lost during the season...with names/initials we can normally find and return things to their owners...without those markings things disappear and the parent has to make another purchase. Please note the red uniform and white costume are not replaceable due to the 12 week timeline for production...if you lose or damage either of those...you will return to the horn or drumline to finish the season.

Beach notes will go home with those participating on Friday and will need to be returned signed by parent next MONDAY!!

White Costume Hem...opitional offer...Haley's Mom/Pam White has offered to hem jumpsuits for $10 each. If you are interested in having her hem the costume for you...bring $10 cash and your costume with you to camp MONDAY morning. Mrs. Pam will come in after lunch, we will have you try on your outfit, she will pin the hem to the proper length and of course take the costume with her to complete the work. It will be returned as soon as she finishes and obviously in time for the 1st time we wear them in late September. (Side note...both Haley & her older sister Michele have been Tigerettes...Pam has been sewing and making alterations for years for us. If you would like the top of your costume tweaked at the top around the bust area please bring an additional $5 cash with you and she can pin and get that done too...Pam does great work!!!) So...hem only $10 cash...hem and bust $15 cash.

Pictures will be made for the fall football program at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, July 10.
Tigs must arrive fully dressed, full face makeup, no jewelry, with straight hair down/no pins/clips. Fully dressed = arrive wearing red costume with back straps saftey pinned tightly. We want those pinned on both red uni and white costumes bc they will continue to stretch out during the season and pins will allow us to continue to tighten as we go. Bra required is a nude halter style/no clear straps/with great support...we tolerate no jiggle...and just like tryouts if you need a little extra up top go to Walmart and buy it...lol. Panty required is a BARELY THERE OR LOVE PAT style full panty in NUDE...make sure you get a large enough size the it fits and is not soooo tight that the panty is pulled sheer. Hose required are LEGGS SHEER ENERGY/SHEER TO THE WAIST/SUNTAN...no other kind will work...we know the difference!! These can be found at most local drug stores and Walmart or in bulk (suggested) at the Hanes/Bali outlet at Watermark. (hose note...these will NOT marking to the thigh line, only a small square where the legs meet at the top of the hose)

Please note...the same NUDE/HALTER bra & panty used above will be used with the bodystocking when we wear the White Costume!!

If you have questions about any of the above please email. Things are going great (well except for my flu/sinus infection...lol) and the girls are working very hard and also seem to be having a ton of fun sitting together and getting to know each other at various times during the day. IT IS HOT!!!! Please encourage water and rest during this next weekend...limit as much caffiene as possible to keep the girls hydrated for next week's short week.
