**** Vicki English Maynes (DCC 1980), Jeanne Monfort Bassetti Jullien (DCC 1979, 80, 81), and Wendi White Wasson (DCC 1980), better known as the ‘3 Musketeers’, are an awesome example of the answer we all give to the question, “What’s the best part of being a DCC”?.... lifelong friendships!
Upon their first introduction at the D.C.C. tryouts in 1980 at Texas Stadium, the three ladies were instantly drawn to each other by helping to calm jittery nerves, fine-tuning final dance moves, and sharing their prized possession: a jumbo-sized 'Aqua Net' hairspray to secure their ‘Big Ol’ Texas Hair’. Following an incredible
year of Dallas Cowboys cheering together, their "Ya Ya Sisterhood" forever
friendship continues to flourish to this day, 32 years later!
Following cheerleading, the three of them shared a true passion for
flying above the clouds at 42,000ft. Jeanne and Vicki glamorously traveled
around the world as Flight Attendants for Braniff Airlines. Vicki and Wendi
experienced one of the greatest concert tours ever. They were hired as
Michael Jackson’s private Flight Attendants on his ‘Victory Tour’, which was
a ‘Thriller’ of an adventure!
Their friendships include many memorable vacations taken over the
years. From swimming with spinner dolphins in the crystal blue waters off
the Big Island of Hawaii, to hiking mystical wind-carved Sedona mountains, to
cruising across the Pacific Ocean celebrating BIG birthdays ending in the
number ‘0’, their most recent adventure was visiting
Disneyland, ‘The Happiest Place on Earth’.
‘The 3 Musketeers’ truly enjoy the closeness they feel towards each
other and how much they appreciate every moment they have together. For
their next big adventure, they are considering returning to Hawaii
to explore Mauna Kea’s 13,796 ft. summit and to visit the other "Happiest Place on
Earth" Wendi’s #1 rated Honukai Bed & Breakfast......
**** Stacy Fresh Schirato (DCC 2002, 03), Kelly Kirchoff Stus (DCC 2000, 01, 02, 03), and Courtney Barfield Sparks (DCC 2001, 02, 03) cheered together and now their children are in the same class! The school they attend has multi-age classrooms, so Heath and Alex were in the same class last year and are now in 2nd grade and Charlie is in 1st grade.
