Q&A with Glenn Longfield :

1. Daughter's name? - Candace Bridegroom, a Freshman class member of the Junior Varsity Centralettes.

2. What I like most about the dance team? - The professional image and level of confidence that is projected by both teams--Junior Varsity and Varsity. They are polished!

3. What motivated me to become a member of the board? - I have only been a parent for two years now, but I truly believe in being very involved in my kid's lives--and that includes giving them a lot of support in extracurricular activities. I've been involved with Schererville Baseball (Kevin - 11 yr. old) for the past two years--including coaching in 2002 & 2003, and the role of Treasurer in 2003. Now, with the Centralettes, I have a great opportunity to support Candace and contribute to a great organization.

4. What advice would I give to new Centralette parents? Please get involved! Attend the parent meetings and volunteer for one of the committees. The girls do their part by working very hard and improving throughout the year. However, it is the parents that provide the financial support and organizational support that is necessary for the continued success of the Centralettes.

5. Favorite inspirational quote, poem or song? - "We are much stronger together than we are alone." - Walter Payton

6. Most memorable moment as a dance team parent? - Unfortunately, I haven't been to a dance competition yet this year--as I mentioned above, my daughter is a Freshman. However, while attending competitions during the last two years for Candace (Grimmer), I've been able to watch LC perform. I was always amazed with the level of enthusiasm of the Centralette supporters and the level of professionalism that was projected by the teams.
