The Ultimate Rette Prep Camp:  Boot Camp

If you are pursuing the coveted Red, White & Blue, then The Protocol School of East Texas has the summer Rette prep camp for you!  Don’t let this opportunity to learn to kick and dance the Rangerette way as well as enhance your knowledge of the Rangerette organization’s expectations and traditions pass you by.  You’ll never experience another preparatory camp like this anywhere other than at Kilgore College itself!

The Ultimate Rette Prep Camp is located in Henderson, Texas just fifteen minutes from Kilgore College.  Scheduled are 8 ½ days of intense dance, fitness, yoga, Zumba, and nutrition instruction as well as posture, poise, and presentation coaching.  Allow Cindi Somerville Rains and her capable staff to educate and coach your Rangerette Hopeful for what will hopefully turn out to be the beginning of her junior college dance career.

Ms. Rains has served as the protocol consultant for the World Famous Kilgore College Rangerettes for several years in various capacities.  She is a graduate of The Protocol School of Washington.  She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from the University of Texas at Austin and a teaching certificate from the University of Texas at Tyler.  She is currently in her twentieth year of teaching British literature and technical writing in the Texas public school system.  She is the owner and director of the Intensive Dance Co. studio and has trained up-and-coming Rangerettes as well as Rangerette officers. The following is a tentative schedule of instruction during the 8 ½ days for resident students.  Commuters will be offered breakfast only.  Residents will be offered breakfast and served dinner only.
