Librarians Named Grand Champions at Book Cart Drill Team Competition
By Bonnie Bauer, Library Assistant
The St. Margaret’s librarians were named Grand Champions at the California School Library Association’s Book Cart Drill Team Competition Thursday night. Calling themselves the Capistrano Cowgirls, and with getup to match, the team entered the arena with book carts decorated with steer heads, saddles and wagon wheels. The crowd cheered loudly and rang cowbells as the group performed their energetic routine to the 1980’s Escape Club hit, Wild, Wild West.
The team, comprising Karen Angus, Bonnie Bauer, Rosemary DeSa and the library’s director, Darla Magaña, practiced for about six weeks on Sunday afternoons in the school’s gym. All their hard work paid off as they wowed the audience with highly synchronized line dancing, an old-fashioned shoot-out using their barcode scanners as guns, cartwheels and a finale which included a round-off splits move by team captain, Bonnie Bauer. The Cowgirls received two perfect scores of 10 and took the top prize – a bright-orange colored book cart and $250 gift certificate from the competition’s sponsor, DEMCO.
So stop by the library to checkout their proudly displayed prize along with a good book!
