About Cheer Camp!
Dear Coach / Parent,
It is with a great sense of pride and accomplishment that we introduce you to the 54th Anniversary Edition of Pine Forest Cheerleading Camp. We hope the information presented on our site will be helpful as you go through the process of selecting a camp for your team.
The fact that our family has been doing this for 54 years is both special and unique. Unlike other camps that use camp managers to run their camps, Pine Forest is managed and directed by either Jerry Sr. or his sons, Jerry, Jr., and Craig. This is a family business and we take a lot of pride in what we do. No detail is too small and we do everything possible to ensure your cheerleaders have a wonderful and positive experience in a safe and secure camp environment. Your cheerleaders will develop under the Preschutti Family Team Concept. It's our name on the line and we will do whatever is necessary to satisfy all who attend.
Providing a first-class cheerleading camp experience has always been our personal mission. From the opening introductions, to the final good-byes, we have been involved in the personal growth of each and every camper. Their success is ours and this personal commitment has been key to our longevity. We are dedicated to creating memories that will last a lifetime. Last summer cheerleaders attended from nine states, some traveling six to nine hours to attend our camps. This, in itself, is a testimony to what we stand for and demonstrates a high degree of "trust in our family" and respect of our philosophy. It's been proven over time and it is unmatched anywhere!
Going away to Pine Forest Cheerleading Camp is a tremendous and positive experience. We encourage you to explore our site and see why teams keep coming back year after year.
We are proud to offer the BEST CHEERLEADING CAMP VALUE IN AMERICA!
Sincerely yours in cheerleading,
The Preschutti Family
