Giving Back
One of the core principles of the Rochambeau Rebels is that there is more to a well rounded childhood than just cheerleading. This is why we offer a long season with a limited schedule that allows cheerleaders to pursue other interests. The Rochambeau Rebels are tremendously grateful for the support of the local community for making our program possible. Approximately once a month, the cheerleaders will have the optional opportunity to give back through local community service activities. Cheerleaders are not obligated or mandated to participate in any BTB events but are welcome to join as many or as few as they wish and their schedule allows.
Helping Cheerleaders to Realize their Full Potential
For our older cheerleaders, we are building an age-appropriate, community-driven program that connects local business owners, professionals, artists, veterans and others to inspire and guide them in exploring their dreams. This initiative aims to provide cheerleaders with a broader perspective on what they can achieve, expose them to different industries, and give them valuable insights into possible journeys and professional paths. Through hands-on experiences and personal stories, the program helps cheerleaders discover their passions, build confidence, and expand their dreams for the future. This program will give cheerleaders a unique opportunity to connect with members of the local community who can serve as role models, opening up new horizons for their future aspirations.
Become a Beyond the Bow Sponsor
Your support of the Rochambeau Rebels Beyond the Bow initiative is tremendously appreciated! We are incredibly excited to help our cheerleaders connect with the wider community and could not do it without your help. Sponsors will be recognized for their contributions.
