ABOUT OUR PROGRAM

The Huntley Park District is proud to host an in-house cheerleading and poms program for kindergarteners-5th graders. Our squads are led by HPD coaching staff through basic cheers, stunts, and tumbling! This recreational program offers an introduction to sideline spirit, while also challenging our squads to better themselves and work as a team!
