We are rapidly approaching the end of our coverage of the 2018 P-R-O Convention in Atlanta. And our next honoree is a dancer that I have featured here in the past and when you see her photos, I think you’ll be able to see why. A former NFL cheerleader and current member of the Charlotte Honey Bees, introducing Laken, our next 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star.
We are close to the end, but not quite done yet, so check back tomorrow to see who is our next 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star and for more cheerleader articles, please visit my personal blog: thehottestdanceteam.wordpress.com.

A couple of weeks ago, I shared a photo entitled “D.C. Women of Color” and that was a product of previous group photo of all the D.C. Cheerleaders that were in attendance at the P-R-O Convention…apparently they are pretty tight between both squads. So today, I want to share with you that photo featuring all the lovely ladies from our nation’s capital.
I may have mentioned this before, but one of my favorite cheerleading squads to photograph is the Arizona Cardinals Cheerleaders. I love road tripping out to Phoenix to catch a Cardinals game. And it’s a positive that they play in a modern stadium that has great sight lines and it just so happens that they drafted a talented QB, Josh Rosen, from my alma mater, UCLA. So you can say, I like the Cards and the AZCC and I guess I’ll have to make the journey back to the Valley of the Sun next season for some Sunday fun.
Our next 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star is a third year member of the Arizona Cardinals Cheerleaders and is originally from Friendswood, Texas…introducing Ashley.
Only a few more left, so check back soon to see the 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star. And for more cheerleader articles, please visit my personal blog: thehottestdanceteam.wordpress.com.

There were many dance teams in attendance at the P-R-O Convention and I try to photograph as many dancers from as many teams as I can, given the limited amount of down time. And this year, I was able to get some quality time with one of the Charlotte CheckMates…introducing Jennifer, a 2018 P-R-O Convention All Star.
There are only a handful left, so check back tomorrow to see who is our next P-R-O Convention All Star. For more cheerleader articles, please visit my personal blog: thehottestdanceteam.wordpress.com.
The Arizona Cardinals Cheerleaders brought one of the largest teams to the 2018 P-R-O Convention and this year, there were a lot of new faces. So when there was a lull in the dance instruction, the AZCC gathered on the stage to take a group photo and I took advantage to showcase the entire squad that came to Atlanta.
