When scheduling our most recent trip we chose October 28th to November 5th instead of our usual December vacation. We chose this time for two reasons: 1, to attend Mickey's Halloween party and 2, to avoid the Pop Warner cheerleader invasion.
We stayed at All Star Music and things were fine until the last 2 days. A fair size group of cheerleaders, though older than our previous experiences, arrived. They claimed the smoking area as their personal practice spot, ostensibly so the coach could LIE DOWN on the bench and puff away in between bouts of screaming to rival any pageant mother on Toddlers in Tiaras. And trust me, you have not experienced disturbing until you have seen the gyrating routine to Down With the Sickness.......
Now I am not someone who feels I should have complete exclusivity to my resort or my time in the parks. However, over the years we have run into these groups in the parks and worst of all at our stays at Port Orleans Riverside. The kids monopolized the hot tub, over-ran the pool and the chaperones were busy fully enjoying the pool-side bar. They practiced cheering until dawn on the walkways outside our room and polite requests for quiet were ignored.
I realize they spend their money too and have a right to be there, I just chose to not share my vacation with them if possible. Therefore my question is: Is there a new generation or group of cheer-leading competitors or is Pop Warner running more than one competition? Before I begin planning a 2013 vacation I would like to know what time slots to black-out......
