The SunDolls will be traveling this summer to a UDA College Camp in July. All members selected are required to attend and pay or fundraise for the camp fee. Meals are included in camp.
The team does not travel to most away games. However, if the football team does invite the team to travel, we will. Also, if the team is invited to a bowl game, some team members may travel. There are no expenses involved in the trip.
UDA Nationals is in January in Orlando, Florida. Each girl is responsible for their meals.
The last trip we may take is in March to the BIG EAST men’s basketball tournament in New York City. All expenses are paid for.
