The Varsity Cougar Classics attended the National Dance Alliance four day long camp over the summer, they then competed with 10 other schools
in the KC area. Judges, NDA staff members, rated the teams. Northwest was awarded an excellence rating for their home routine they’d learned before camp, a higher, superior rating for their officer routine and a superior rating for the team dance learned at camp.
“It was such a rewarding experience,” junior Emma Rutherford said, “To know that all of the hard work we had put in during the week paid off.”
Upcoming events for the cougar classics include: the KU marching fest with the Marching Cougar Pride Oct 12. The light show Oct 25, and the SMN marching fest Oct 26.
