Irby said that, in spite of limited adver tising and the fact that the event was held on a Thursday, last year’s invitational had drawn a crowd of more than 1,000 people. “We’re expecting to sell out at the door, ” he said. “We’ve got 28,000 square feet to use, and we’re trying to keep things as spacious as possible. ” hby said he expected the crowd to approach 3,000 people.

Unless, thatis, you’reaHighKickingHeel. This weekend, a few more dancers will join the High Kicking team. Auditions will be held from 9 a.m. until noon Saturday in the Women’s Gym A. On Sunday, the tryouts are from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. in Fetzer Gym C. “We have a two-day tryout period, and we have three cuts,” said Vanessa Carr, the team’scoach. “The cuts are skills, the pom pon skills, then the dance skills.” Team members have to try out each year they want to be on the team. Last spring, about 120 people tried out. Co-captain Kelly Guillet, a junior from Waynesville, said the tryouts were not very strict. “It’s laid-back. We just learn two dances and do skills,” she said. Alana Simpson, Guillet’s teammate and roommate, agreed that the atmosphere at tryouts was easygoing. “It’s fun. It’sagood experience even if you don’t make (the team),” she said. Several dancers on the team this year had tried out before and not made the team, said Simpson, a junior from Mooresville. “I see people come back (and try out again),” she said. “I see them im prove.” Carr said she and the six other judges chose dancers on the basis of dance and cheer techniques more than anything else. “After I'm satisfied with that part, we start looking for projection qualities,” she said.

MONDAY 7 p.m. Catalyst for positive Social Change and ®ljp laity ®ar Hppl Projection qualities include how the dancers present themselves physically and facially, their energy levels, and their con fidence, Carr said. Guillet, who has been on the team for three years, said the judges wanted dancers with a good attitude and ability. “I think they just look for potential,” she said. The panel of judges consists of coaches from other schools and former dancers. Both Guillet and Simpson have had a lot of dance experience. They also cheered in high school. Simpson said she had de cided to become a High Kicking Heel in stead of a cheerleader because she pre ferred the sport. “I liked the dancing part more than the tumbling,” she said. The team requires its 16 to 18 members to be dedicated to dancing. “We practice about four times a week, but that includes working out,” Guillet said. The dance season lasts the whole school year, and dancers also go to camp in the summer, Carr said. They return to school in early August to practice with the band. In exchange for all of their hard work, the dancers perform at various sporting events and other occasions. “They do foot ball (games), men’s and women’s basket ball, and campus events,” Carr said. Simpson, a High Kicking Heel since her freshman year, said the team had danced at fivemen'sbasketballgamesthisyear. “We wish we could do more,” she said. The team is asked to perform when a halftime show is needed. Guillet said that despite the time com mitment, sheenjoyedbeingontheteam. “I do think it’s worth it,” she said. “Every body on the team thinks it’s worth it.
