The Fivesters Cadets made an excellent Family Day crowd excitement in the CGHS stadium. The crowd was happy to see what new things Miami would be known for. The Fivesters will be kicking it up to speed tomorrow for tour. Good luck to them and to the corps in the GM Organization!

Hey! CHSGIRL2

Good Luck to both of your corps. I hope you have a great season 2! We the instructional staff and Corps Director wish your brother & sister in division 2 their best.

The Fivesters Cadets came with a strong season opener. Their show which has a latin twist to it came very strong. They made 2nd place and hope to continue to succeed as the season goes. The corps director was very proud for just hearing the show go on at competition in front of thousands of screaming Div II and Div III fans. Drew said "This season has showed me that there may be something to these kids that can attract such an audience to these competitions."

The Fivesters wish good luck to their brothers in Div I for their competition tommorrow.
