All-Star Cheer Camp
The Kansas Shrine Bowl annually provides one of the best and most popular cheer clinics available in the state. It is professionally conducted with fun and safety as primary goals. The clinic also helps to raise funds for Shriner's Hospitals for Children because they receive all proceeds of the clinic. Cheer participants may be males or females in grades 8 through 12 with at least one year of cheering experience. Participants may attend the clinic as a squad or as individuals.[4]
Media
The Kansas Shrine Bowl is broadcast on Cox Cable in Kansas. It is also broadcast on 12 radio stations, throughout the State of Kansas. Stan Weber and Mark Ewing co-cast the t.v. and Bruce Steinbrock and Mark Elliott, who cover Washburn University football and basketball games, co-cast the radio.
