Park Ridge Competitive Cheer- Pennyville Fundraiser
2021-07-15 18:30 - 20:30 | Pennyville Bar Car, 112 Main Street, Park Ridge, 60068, United States
Mark the calendar and hopefully join us on Thursday, July 15 at 6:30 PM for a Park Ridge Competitive Cheer Fundraiser at Pennyville Bar Car, in Uptown Park Ridge!!
If you are interested in sponsoring the event for $100 (includes name/logo on banner, shout out at the event and on social media), please contact Kristin Zabratanski, kristinzab@gmail.com or register at the link below and add a sponsorship (plug any birthdate).
Our Park Ridge Competitive Cheer program has numerous expenses throughout the year. This Pennyville fundraiser will provide a way for cheerleaders and their families to ease the financial burden of participating in our PRC program. For example, due to the unprecedented year of 2020, our IRCA competition entry fees for 2021 will be more than two times what they have been in the past. Additionally, every two years, our brand new competition uniforms are always a tremendous added cost to parents.
All proceeds from this fundraiser will assist us in offering our PRC girls the opportunity to compete at more events and assist parents with uniform expenses.
Thank you for your support!!! (Please note: this is an adults-only event!)
Tickets are $75 per person and include an open bar until 8:30PM, appetizers, awesome raffle prizes, live music, and more!

UNIFORMS
All Park Ridge Competitive Cheer athletes are required to purchase their own uniform and cheer shoes. The cost of
our 2021 competition uniform is approximately $205, which includes the bodysuit top and skirt. The uniform amount
is due during the custom uniform fitting by Varsity, which will be held on Thursday, June 3, 2021 from 5-8PM. Park
Ridge Competitive Cheer has an established uniform program whereupon we make a two year commitment to a
particular style of uniform. The current 2-year cycle is 2021/2022. Cheer shoe costs vary, depending on the brand
and where they are purchased. Cheer shoes must be white.
During the fitting:
• Wear form-fitting clothing (e.g. leotard, one-piece swimsuit, tank top, shorts, leggings).
• Bring mask or face covering, which must be worn during the fitting. [Note, if the state, local and school guidelines do not
mandate face coverings, Varsity Spirit still strongly encourages mask wearing of all attendees throughout the meeting.
Furthermore, it is Varsity Spirit’s policy that any attendee who tries on an ‘over the head garment’ such as a uniform shell, tshirt, pullover, etc., and/or any attendee who needs to be measured by the Varsity Spirit Representative, MUST wear a mask or
face covering. This face covering must be provided by the attendee or organization.]
• Wash hands or use hand sanitizer before and after touching garments or bring and wear gloves while touching garments
