Calling all ALUMNI Charlonians...

In an effort to stay connected and continue supporting the Legacy of the Charlonians at JHS; we'd like to form an Alumni Charlonian organization. We've been working on this the past two years little by little but it's time to get serious.

Once a year the Charlonians still host the traditional Charlonian Showcase and show all of their routines, etc. During the showcase we've been honoring "Chars of Past" as we call alumni and we'd like to make this year the biggest and best showing of alumni as possible. It is Centennial year and to us it's so amazing to be a part of that and want our alumni to join in.

I am also a JHS and Charlonian alumni; graduated in 1998. I have been coaching the Chars for 3 years now and in that time we have placed first in Californian Nationals in a routine and have taken overall recently in Nationals in New York. We have done well in-state too placing in the top 5 consistently. I am doing my best to build up this program again because I know that it has so much history and legacy behind it; I want to make you all proud.

The girls and I would love your support!

SO... Chars of Past, let yourselves be known to us Chars of Present.

C-H-A-R-L-O-N-I-A-N-S!
Charlonians!!!

It is always fun to see how the team is doing these days and this is a great idea to keep us all updated. My info has changed because I have recently gotten married so you can send future emails to nephanie.nielson@gmail.com. I'm not sure if I will be in Utah come next April so email updates would work wonders. Hope you all are having an amazing year and keep me posted :)
