Twin Sisters Become The 2017 VSF Cover Models!

Share This Post

Twin sisters, Elana and Rae Dickson, went from practicing cheer routines in their front yard, to smiling in front of the camera as Varsity Spirit Fashion Models. After years of cheering side-by-side, this dynamic duo took on a new role as 2017 cover girls!

Hard work paid off when Elana and Rae achieved their goals of becoming varsity cheerleaders at Ouachita Christian School. When they aren’t cheering on their team, you can find them serving as members of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, National Honors Society, and Art Club. The busy young women have also been on their school’s homecoming court for the past 4 years.

The sisters have been teammates throughout their entire cheerleading careers, and while they’ve always loved cheering alongside one another, being able to stunt together has always been their favorite. Rae told us what it was like cheering with her sister.

It’s really easy being teammates because we have so much fun together! We don’t get competitive with one another but we still push each other to do our best!

Their mom encouraged them both to apply to be Varsity Spirit Fashion models after hearing about the opportunity from a family friend. Elena explains her reaction after seeing the cover for the first time.

I’ve never been so happy and excited! It is a true honor! It’s so special to be chosen because it is such a great opportunity to represent my school and the activity that I love so much!
