Please take a moment to congratulate Paige and Emily and don't forget to visit the Siren, Sion's online literary magazine. In July the Sion varsity cheerleaders attended UCA summer camp and were awarded the Superior Trophy, given to the squad that exemplifies spirit, commitment, and leadership as well as the "top banana" award.

Their cheers, stunts, and dance routine were deemed by judges to rate with the best in the state.
