Congratulations Mac Sullivan!
Caring Hands Scholarship Recipient
GVCO would like to thank and congratulate Mac Sullivan for her years of dedicated community service through our Caring Hands foundation.
GVCO established an annual scholarship award to be granted to a high school senior who most exemplifies the values of the GVCO Caring Hands through volunteerism, leadership, and community service.
GVCO Caring Hands was established to empower local middle and high school students to support their community by raising funds for those individuals, families, or organizations in our community experiencing hardship, tragedies or catastrophic events. In addition as a Caring Hands a student-run community outreach program, students are organized by the group's student leaders to volunteer for numerous events throughout the year.

This school year brought with it many challenges. Students should be looking to finish this school year as strong as possible while any academic deficiencies need to be addressed to ensure future success.
This summer presents an opportunity for students of all ages to catch up on any school subjects they have fallen behind on, especially in cumulative courses like math, where each prior year builds on the last. Whether your student needs to catch up on course content, or get a head start on preparing for the SAT/ACT, contact us to set up a call to discuss their academic situation and what Ivy Experience can do to support them.

Summer and Fall Cheer Programs
Conditioning:
Spring conditioning clinics are for athletes who are interested in training and enhancing their strength in anticipation of the fall sports season. These clinics are not inclusive of only cheerleaders, but for all boys and girls who want to work out with other athletes. The clinics will be twice a week in June and July 2021 at a location in the Great Valley School District.
Cheer for Grades K-1
Flag football cheerleading is for athletes in K and 1st grade to get introduced to the GVCO cheerleading program. Athletes will learn cheers, dance and jumps and cheer during the flag football games and perform at half time. They will also do other voluntary community events to perform to the community.
Starting early August, there will be a one hour practice at a location within the Great Valley School District. Games are typically held on Sunday mornings.
Coaches
Want to get involved? Coaches are needed for the Clinics and Fall season. Email Cheer@GVCO.org

Our GVBL 2021 Summer League will begin June 14th and run until August 12th. Games will be played on Monday through Thursday evenings. GVBL will be taking a maximum of 80 registrants per division.
Register for Girls and Boys in Grades 1-8 for the Fall
Register for the Boys High School division - must be a GVSD resident
As always we will be looking for volunteers to coach at the elementary/MS divisions.
COVID-19 continues to hamper our ability to get indoor court space within our GVSD school buildings, as the district facilities remain closed to non school district usage. GVBL has secured outdoor court space within the district and we will be holding our summer league outdoors - as we did in the early 2000's - in the summer of 2021.
