Michele Bergh October 2000 • Staff Report Cheerleading Clinic This was once again a big success with about 125 young girls between the ages of K and 6th grade participating. This was a one-day clinic and then the girls cheered at 1/2 time during a Varsity Boys Soccer game. They were really cute! There were a lot of parents and extended family that attended the game to watch them cheer. This is a fundraiser for the cheerleaders. Fall/Winter 2000 Brochure The brochure is complete and will be delivered in a few weeks. We will be putting all the information on our website in the next week or so. We are offering our popular Wiggles and Giggles class for 4-6 year olds this winter. This was a new program this past summer and was very successful so we are giving it a try in the winter to see if it will be as popular which we think it will be. A new program offering we have is called Exercise Fun for 3-5 year olds with a parent/guardian. This will run in the mornings at Emporium and will feature fun active games. Adult Leagues Co Rec Volleyball has started with 8 teams this year and Women's Volleyball has started with 7. We are looking forward to a fun season with these leagues and are hopeful that they will run smoothly. Emporium Concerts continue to be popular and the Fridays are booked until the end of January. We also now have • a Saturday each month for techno night, as this seems to be another niche in the area Emporium can serve. There are a lot of students in the area who enjoy this kind of music and want a place to listen to it and dance. We have a special event on October 18th, the Wednesday before MEA featuring techno music as well. We are trying to get a fencing program in place and hope to have it in place this winter. We are working with an organization that teaches this and they are looking for an instructor in the area who is available on the nights we are looking at. We are also going to be offering a self-defense program again this fall like we did last fall for teens. Marketing 2000 RaeAnn and I attended a workshop for marketing and came back with the ideas flowing on some creative ways to market. We are really excited to implement some of them. One of the ideas we are going to implement right away is to start collecting email address for people who are interested in receiving periodic information from us. This way as the list grows we'll be able to reach a large number of customers in a very short period of time. We can use this to let people know when the brochure is going to be delivered, when a class has openings and needs some additional marketing, or to let people know about special activities we have running. •
