Celadrin Tigerettes Filming

FRIDAY was a travel day for me. I am the out-of-state player for the 60+ US National Champion Women's Basketball team which centers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I always spend an entire day to meet with my team, the Celadrin Tigerettes. Loretta picked me up at the airport and hosted Kitty and me for the weekend. She has a beautiful home where Kitty and I shared a king-sized room and bathroom as we always do when we stay in BR.

SATURDAY we wore our uniforms to a practice session at the local YMCA at 8 AM (6 AM for me!). The filming crew choreographed our practice to fill the gaps they had in their prvious footage. Thank goodness for airconditioning because, even at 8 in the morning, it was almost 100 degrees Farenheit. We went to the hairdresser in our uniforms after practice to simulate that we had just returned from winning the title. DJ had been filmed before the games and, while he did our hair, he talked about the competition. My hair ended up looking like Donna Reed with little flips at the bottom of flat sides.??? Anyway, it was a lot of fun. Keith, Chris and Jason, the filming crew, showed us the edited footage for the film as they have done it to date. They still have another 30 minutes to edit out with a finished feature presentation becoming 90 minutes. They have had 100 hours of film before this round and still don't have the sound and music overlaid.
