President, Head Coach
Carol Brown
Carol is entering her 15th year of coaching cheerleading; holds USASF certification at all 5 levels for stunting, tosses, and tumbling; and attends USASF coaches conferences for continued education.  She has coached both high school and all-star state and national championship teams, and has had multiple finishes in the top three spots at numerous other events.

Carol was born in England and immigrated (with her family) to the United States in 1956.  She became a citizen in 1963 and is very “proud to be an American’ - which is why the name of this organization is more than just letters, colors, and a mascot. Although she is grateful for her English heritage Carol reminds everyone that she is a Brit by birth - but an American by choice.

In her “other” life, Carol is a graphic designer for Dewberry, Inc., an Engineering Consulting Firm in Carlisle, for which her husband, Bill, is a Senior Vice-President and Branch Manger.  Carol cheered for Cumberland Valley in the sixties and has been married to her high-school sweetheart for 40 years.  They have two sons; Michael (36) who lives in Phoenix with his wife, Tracey, son Mason and daughter Cailyn; and Jeremy (34) who currently resides with his wife, Lauren, in Brick, NJ.
