Proud parents: Jenni Eiteman and Tim Eiteman. She is a 2019 graduate from Perry High School. She danced 16 years at Showtime Studio in Perry. She will be a Senior this fall at ISU. Majoring in dietetics with a minor in gerontology. She is the great-granddaughter of Mary, and because of their close relationship, it was her desire to work with our elderly population. She is finishing her degree in 3 years and will continue her studies at ISU for her masters. She fell in love with color guard in high school and tried out her freshman year at ISU. She made it her freshman year, but skipped last year due to the pandemic. The marching band experience at ISU has been so amazing and lots of hard work….early morning calls and long days of practices, but the experience has been one she will always remember. Some of her favorite experiences have been…making memories with her friends/band mates, trick or treating with the band, performing at Jack Trice & the Step Show, cheering on ISU and traveling to the bowl game. She works at Greenhills Senior Community in Ames. She will be performing at all the home ISU games. The Step Show is before every home game in front of the Alumni Center, which is always free and fun to see. The marching band at ISU is the largest band they’ve ever had. Should be an exciting season, she is really looking forward to it. They practice so many hours. The band director is Mr. Caricher.
