April Fabrizio is writing on behalf of the inaugural Acrobatics and Tumbling team at Alderson Broaddus University. The team is comprised of 23 female athletes from backgrounds in gymnastics, cheerleading, and trampoline. Fabrizio explains how she discovered acrobatics and tumbling in college as an athletic opportunity after years in competitive cheerleading. She transferred to help build one of the first and best acrobatics and tumbling programs. The team has fundraised through various events but needs additional support for travel as the sport grows and more teams emerge. Fabrizio asks the reader to consider donating to help the program continue to represent and promote the university.
Some believe that ANZAC day has lost significance through over-commercialization and comparisons to football that seem disrespectful. However, others argue that ANZAC day remains deeply ingrained in Australian culture and continues to be relevant, as remembering past mistakes can help avoid future ones. The author believes ANZAC day celebrations should continue, as any act to commemorate those who fought for the country is respectful regardless of perceived insignificance.
The document discusses how sports can provide benefits beyond just athletic achievement. It describes how the author, who did not achieve his dream of becoming a professional AFL player due to injuries, was able to apply skills learned from sports like commitment, discipline, and time management to complete his physiotherapy degree and start his own business. He founded The Sports Rewards Foundation to invest in youth sports and promote healthy living in Australia by making sport and exercise more affordable and accessible.
I had to complete an action project for my Gender and Pop Culture Class, and this is my action. I made a \'Zine (self made magazine) in order to expose people to the problems with advertisement of female athletes. Feel free to comment or express your opinions, but please be respectful. Thank you and I hope you enjoy it!
The document discusses a song by Yolanda Adams called "Open My Heart" that talks about feeling lost and asking God for guidance. It also provides some facts about the author, including their favorite sports, not having a favorite food, and enjoying reading and jogging. They are scared people won't like how they look and find jogging comforting when sad. Their hobbies include movies, bowling, and spending time with close friends.
Alyson wrote a book about her favorite sports: soccer, gymnastics, dance, and cheerleading. She enjoys soccer because it allows her to have fun with teammates and make new friends. Gymnastics requires trust in oneself and others as well as being willing to try new challenges. Both cheerleading and dance require strength, hard work, grace, and a love for the sport.
The document discusses the status of India in terms of poverty, equality, rights, freedom, and awareness. It notes that poverty in India is impacted by economic status and inflation, with the rich becoming richer. Equality is impacted by equal laws versus the role of money in government. Rights discussed include the right to express oneself, vote, act independently, and think freely. Freedom topics include freedom of thought, expression, and the media. Awareness levels of the people, students, and politicians are also addressed. The presentation concludes with thanks.

Alderson Broaddus Acrobatics and Tumbling
101 College Hill Drive, Philippi WV 26416

To whom it may concern,
I, April Fabrizio, am writing to you on behalf of the inaugural Acrobatics and
Tumbling team at Alderson Broaddus University. We are a first year program
comprised of twenty-three female athletes that come from all different backgrounds
including gymnastics, competitive cheerleading, and trampoline. However, the one
thing we all have is common is our goal, and that is to represent our University in all
aspects on and off the mat.
Let me begin by telling you a little about myself, and how I ended up at Alderson
Broaddus to play Acrobatics and Tumbling. Ever since I was toddler, my mom has
thrown me into all sorts of gymnastics, dance, and ballet classes. It was not until 6th
grade when I realized I wanted to be on a team, rather than perform a gymnastics
routine solo. Shortly thereafter, I was introduced to competitive cheerleading, and I
instantly became passionate with the athletic aspects of the sport. I continued to
thrive on all my all-star teams for seven years, but then I got to the point of what’s
next? I was a junior in high school when I started to look into potential colleges I
was interested in academically. However, I knew something was missing. I had
always wanted to play a sport in college, but I knew that in the world outside of
competitive cheerleading, it was not considered a collegiate sport. I had no idea
what I was going to do. I was not interested in sideline cheer, because they have a
different purpose at the University, and that is to promote school spirit. I had never
cheered on the sidelines a day in my life, and I was not about to start now because I
was so over all the hair, make-up, glitter, and bows… All I wanted was to be
recognized as an athlete.
One day, by word of mouth, I heard of this new program called Acrobatics and
Tumbling at the University of Oregon. All I knew at the time was that it was NOT
cheerleading, but that it had some of the athletic aspects of competitive
cheerleading integrated into it. I thought, this is just what I was looking for, a chance
to be recognized for all my strength, talent, and skill. So I flew out to the very next
summer clinic at the University of Oregon, and was being recruited in November of
my senior year. When I arrived in Oregon for my freshman year, it hit me that I was
not only creating history in the world of female sports, but I was providing future
opportunities for women all around the country. I honestly believe that this sport is
just going to keep growing, and one day will be so big that we will have conferences
and be televised on ESPN. How cool will it be to say that Alderson Broaddus was one
of the first ten teams to ever have Acrobatics and Tumbling? Think about that. We
need to keep maintaining this program at Alderson Broaddus, and keep getting
stronger and bigger, so we can continue to be a role model to other first year
2. programs. That is one of the main reasons why I transferred. I saw potential in this
team to be one of the best first programs out there, and I wanted to be able to say
that I was apart of the very beginning of something great, because not everyone can.
Due to the fact that we are a growing sport, we are going to have to travel outside
our conference. To be able to do this, we have fundraised in multiple ways including
working WVU football games, hosting tumbling clinics, and selling t-shirts. However,
once teams start adding variously around the country, it is going to be a lot more
difficult to be able to travel to compete against these new teams. Therefore, we are
kindly asking that you help us be apart of something that is so much bigger than
ourselves. The Acrobatics and Tumbling team at Alderson Broaddus has already
gained so much recognition from the surrounding community, and our school
officials, that President Creehan wants us to be the new face of the University. We
naturally bring innovation, character, and uniqueness to the heart of this campus,
and we want to continue making big strides.
A donation from you would go directly towards the future of our program.
Traveling, uniforms, fees, etc. We are an exceptional group of women that want to
get our University’s name out there, and have the opportunity to represent Alderson
Broaddus in the best manner possible. On behalf of our team, I thank you for taking
the time to read this letter. I hope that you have learned a little more about my team
and what we are trying to accomplish, and will consider investing in us. Your
donation could make the difference in the history of this sport at Alderson
Broaddus. Thank you!
If you have any questions about me, or my team, please do not hesitate to contact
me at fabrizioam@battlers.ab.edu
Sincerely,
April Fabrizio
