BEARSDEN cheerleader Anna Robertson and the Scottish Rockettes defied the big freeze to once again produce a swimwear calendar in a bid to raise money for charity.
The top UK pro dance team produce an annual calendar, with this year's proceeds going to Cash for Kids and CHAS.

Anna, a former Boclair Academy pupil from Killermont View, is currently enjoying her first season in the squad and is delighted the Ro
ckettes can do their bit.

She said: "We get paid to go abroad and perform and stay in fancy hotels and it is great to be able to give something back.

"We do a lot of charity gigs as well, which we don't take fees for, and we help with the running of the night, as well as entertaining guests."

The Rockettes enjoyed a busy 2009 which saw them wow crowds at SPL football games and appear on Hogmanay programme Only an Excuse, as well as continuing their weekly performances supporting the Glasgow Rocks basketball team at Kelvin Hall on Sunday nights.

The cheerleading squad looked to keep the costs down during the shoot in order to maximise the profit going to charity.

Anna said: "We all chipped in and used a photographer that we knew for the shoot. The G1 Group provided us with locations at various nightclubs in Glasgow, like Kushion, and we all did our own make-up.

"The calendar is a great way to raise money. This isn't just a part-time job for us, we like to do what we can for charity as well."
