Judges Cup - November 12, 2011

The Judges Cup kicked off in Brentwood New Hampshire the weekend of November 12th. The theme for the meet was “Pajama Party”. The girls enjoyed marching in and presenting to the crowd in their pjs and robes. Some clutched stuff animals while others wore beauty masks. The Level 5s and 6s wore pjs and robes.  The Level 7s and 8s wore footy pjs. Kadianne’s bright pink footies couldn’t be missed!

The judges and several coaches stayed in their pjs throughout the weekend. I love that idea! LOL! A few audience members added to the spirit by wearing their pjs as well!
