Watch video at the end of story of the Blue Devil cheer camp.

The morning’s work could be summed up like this: Be as loud as possible, squeeze in plenty of jumping and clapping and cheer with all your heart. And of course, don’t forget to smile.

The 50 participants of the latest Walla Walla High School Cheer Camp recently put their best moves forward, and filled the school’s gymnasium with near-deafening cheers and screams as the camp got under way.

The “future cheerleaders” got a chance to meet and learn from Wa-Hi’s cheerleading squad, a dozen girls in 11th and 12th grades who not long ago were getting introduced to cheering as well. Each young participant got to take home a T-shirt with the “future cheerleaders” slogan on them, a pair of blue and white pom-poms, a small megaphone and a Blue Devil frisbee.
