Spotlight on youth

Ridgefield High School cheerleaders Amaya Socha, Mia Tomillo and Joslyn Mayberry each earned All-American Cheerleader honors at National Cheerleaders Association competitions during Varsity Camp at The Evergreen State College in Olympia held in early July. Recipients of this prestigious award earn the recognition of being top cheerleaders in their state. The honor also grants them the opportunity to participate in parades around the country, such as the Orange Bowl Parade, Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and others. In addition, the RHS cheer team as a whole took first place in the Band Dance competition and was voted Most Spirited Squad by the camp participants.
