    The Golden Tornado cheerleading squad, guided by Coach Melanie Philbrook, will be competing at their home base along with most of the other GBL cheerleading squads as well as others from the area.

    “We are expecting 10 teams overall and it should be a great day of competition,” said Philbrook, who noted Malden High is hosting the meet for the first time in a number of years.

     “The team is very excited about this opportunity; both as competitors and as hosts,” Philbrook added.

    The meet will begin at noon and will continue until about 2:00 p.m.  Admission will be $8.00 for adults and $5 for students and senior citizens. Children 6-under will be admitted free of charge.
