    I believe this was a great way to show how caring our girls at Jay High School are. Not only did Varsity supply goods, the JV girls supplied an abundance amount of goods as well. I hope the schools can look around and see how gracious our JV and Varsity girls were. Way to go ROYALS!!!

    It would be a great thing if these girls could actually meet face to face with the squads from PhilCambell when there lives get as close to normal as they can get again.

    They should get recognition for adopting the squad in northern alabama. I think more squads in the area should of done the same.. It was kind, sweet and thoughtful for this group of young woman to help a less fortunate squad that lost it all due to a tornado. Way to go girls…
