• All competition costs are being combined into one budget this year.

• The estimated total cost for all three competitions is approximately $2,500 per cheerleader.

• However, with fundraising and CPC support, the out-of-pocket cost per family will be approximately $1,500

• This year we will engage SchoolFundr for our fundraiser.

• Every dollar we raise will help offset the total cost of the competition season and thereby reduce the per cheerleader out of pocket cost.

No. Any fundraisers undertaken this year will support all three competitions.

This year the CPC Board allocated $25,000 from reserves to help support the inaugural season of the expanded competition slate. Those funds cover choreography fees, equipment, Woodlands Elite coaching, as well as travel to Orlando for coaches, chaperones and an administrator.
