How the program works: FHE Youth Cheer is a volunteer run program set up in conjunction with Forest Hills Eastern's Varsity Cheer Program. We aim to foster a love of cheer, encourage team work and dedication and prepare these young athletes for the future.
This program has two parts, the fall sideline season and the winter competitive season. Fall Sideline is open to all youth grades 3rd-8th that reside within the Forest Hills Eastern school boundary. Winter competitive season is for the middle school level only and for 6th - 8th graders.
As a volunteer organization, we rely on parents donating their time and talents to make this organization successful. If you are interested in offering your time, please contact us. Our email is fheyouthcheer@gmail.com
Our Board of Directors for the 2023 Season are:
Beth Willis, President
Brooke Nabkey, Vice President
Courtney Deemer & Bree Mann, Chairs
