New East Penn Cheerleading Group To Hold Registration Event

East Penn Youth Cheerleading Association to hold fundraising and registration event on Friday at Menchies in Allentown.

There's a new East Penn youth organization in town and it's really something to cheer about.

Launched in March, the East Penn Youth Cheerleading Association (EPCA) was created to "offer the cheer-loving girls of East Penn School District the opportunity to learn, within a competitive environment, the basic fundamentals of recreational cheerleading and the rules of the sport," according to a media statement by EPCA. The group will "focus heavily on the promotion of sportsmanship."

To help get the ball rolling, EPCA is holding a fundraising and registration event on Friday, May 9 at Menchies, 353 S. Cedar Crest Blvd., Allentown.
