Thom Cheer Team Reaches Dizzying Heights
MAY 8, 2023 — In describing the evolution of the Thom Cheer Team, nothing short of stratospheric could apply!
The fledgling group was the brainchild of teacher Melanie Vollman, who started the team at Thom Collegiate in 2009 with a mere 10 untrained athletes. Navigating the arena of competition was a very difficult process and their first event in Moose Jaw did not produce noteworthy results. It did, however, provide an invaluable lesson about preparation and reaching the required skill level before stepping on a stage. This lesson led to a two-year hiatus from competition.
