Haughton High vs. Evangel basketball game.—Please have your child in the HHS Girls Gym (by the bus ramp) at 5:30 p.m. fully dressed. At that time, the Highsteppers will review the dance with participants and get them ready to perform. Parents and family members should go to the HHS Main gym (by Stadium) immediately after dropping off their daughters, sit on the appropriate side, and get ready for the performance! The Highsteppers will escort the girls to the gym at their performance time.
PreK & Kindergarten will perform around 6:30pm at the 1st game half-time, 1st & 2nd grade will perform between the 2 games around 7pm & 3rd-6th grade will perform around 7:30pm. All times are approximate and you should arrive early to secure a seat. Dancers will be released to their parents after each performance. All parents & other spectators must have a ticket for game admittance ($8).
So that all parents can sit in the gym, we will alternate performance sides.
Which side of the gym do I sit on to watch my dancer?
Left side (home) Kindergarten, 2nd, 5th/6th grades
Right side (away) PreK, 1st, 3rd/4th grades
**After each performance, Lil Steppers will wait for parent pickup in the lobby by the girls restroom. Lil Steppers should be picked up by parents IMMEDIATELY after their performance. Please pick up your daughter in a timely manner so the Highsteppers can prepare for their next performance. **Girls must be released to an adult.
Tickets for the Game
We highly encourage you to purchase your game tickets NOW. Ticket lines on Friday night will be long and we would hate for you to miss your Lil Steppers dance. You may purchase tickets for $8 at the door (cash only) when you arrive or through this link. BPSB employees enter for free with ID. You are welcome to stay for both games & help us cheer on our Bucs!
Performance Attire
Lil Steppers should wear clinic t-shirts (the shirt they will receive on Thursday), shorts or dance pants, & sneakers/dance shoes. Our theme this year is Barbie if you want to accessorize. Girls may wear any comfortable clothes for the practice clinics.
