FOUR - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, November 16,2005 Shamrockettes to restructure program The Shamrockettes Dance Team of Heppner has decided to restructure their p ro g ram to m ake th eir program more accessible to k ids in the H eppner community. The current year was a nine-m onth season from June until March. The Shamrockettes want to be supportive of all other sports and extracurricular activities so they are restructuring th e ir program into two seasons that correspond with the current Heppner sports season schedules. The new seasons will be Summer and Winter. The Summer season w ill be from June (after school releases) until the first w eek o f S ep tem b er (P en d leto n R ound Up W eek). The Winter season will be from January (a fte r school resumes from holiday break) to March (St. Patrick's Day Weekend). This will allow the Dance Team to take part in the biggest celebrations in the community. Any girl who decides to participate in a season will be committed for the 3 months. This way, the girls can do all the sports during the school year and still do dance in the summer if they so choose. If the schedule overlaps with other sp o rts, the team will be flexible to allow the girls to participate with their other activity teams. Boys are also encouraged to become a members of the Dance Team sport. This year the team will not be sharing their Christmas routines with our community but perhaps in the future a Fall season will be added if there is enough interest.
