What an INCREDIBLE 4 Days of EPDC!!

learned Camp Dance (novice and intermediate), POM with Laila & Chloe, Jazz Funk with Jonah & Claire, all session Hip-Hop with Jessie, and POM with Jordyn & Alyssa!!

Not only did they learn all of that choreography, but they got to work on technique, drill downs, and have some team bonding time!! That’s A-LOT and we’re so very proud of them!!

Your 2024-25 MHS Dance/Drill Team won Elite’s Teamwork Award, while Captain Cadence, and fellow Senior Polina, both were recognized for outstanding performances in Jazz Funk! Sophomore Addison was recognized as an outstanding performance for POM with Jordyn!

All of these ladies put in some serious work, and stepped out of their comfort zones!!!

Thank you for a fun weekend of learning - we loved it!!❤️

Day 4 - Final day and Showcase Performances!
These ladies have grown so much in these past few days and will only continue to grow as the season progresses!

Camp Day 3!!

These ladies learned another fun routine today, and reviewed three others - and were able to watch the Seattle Seahawks Dance team perform a couple dances!!!💚💙

Watching their growth the last few days has been incredible thanks to their instructors and interns pushing them to get outside their comfort zone!!

Camp Day 2 - Vintage Day!

We had so much fun learning new style of dance, and reviewing our dances from yesterday!

Happy 17th Birthday, Mayah! We hope you have a wonderful day!

Congrats Cadence and Addison, and a great big THANK YOU to all of the supporters!!!

As always, thank you to Powerhouse Fundraising for providing a great fundraiser for our team!

Cadence and Addison have made the 100 Club again! Cadence has done it all 4 years and Addison is a 100 Club veteran as well. Getting into the 100 Club is no easy feat – you have to sell at least 100 boxes of cookie dough in a single fundraiser. Excellent job, ladies! Montesano High School Dance/Drill Team
