Originally founded as the Starletts Drill Team, this student-run organization transformed itself into the Bison Girls Dance Team in 1998. Poms and kick lines were traded for a new look and hip hop style dancing. The team performs at Bison Basketball home games, and for special events on campus.

The 2008-2009 Bison Girls Dance Team consists of 21 members. The total number of team members each season typically remains between 15 and 20. Team officers include a president who handles general business, two co-captains who choreograph dances and run practices, and a treasurer who handles team finances. Decision-making, however, is a team process and all members are encouraged to help with choreography.

During basketball season, the team practices 3-4 nights per week. While there are no fees charged to individual team members, each Bison Girl is asked to purchase her own shoes. Occasionally, the members will also purchase team apparel, hair ribbons or other small accessories.

For more information, please contact our president, Meg Wyatt or our faculty/staff advisor, Tracy Shaynak. Information is also available in the spring at the Admissions Open House, and at Activities Unlimited each fall.
