December Newsletter

*No classes Thursday, December 2nd & Thursday, December 9th due to our performances.

***Would there be any parents or siblings interested in helping set up chairs and taking down chairs for our Christmas Showcase? I am also looking for someone that could run the sound booth to play and stop the music, as well as someone to open and close the curtain for each dance? Please let me know if you are interested or know of someone that would be. THANK YOU!

Festival of Trees: Everyone should have received all notes, itineraries & line up for the Festival. If you have not, or have any questions, please let me know. I don’t want anyone to be confused or misplaced when it comes time to perform. PLEASE be sure to have your dancer there at 1:30. We need to stretch and line up, in time to go on stage at 2:10. Discount tickets are still available at Zions Bank for those who don’t want to pay full price at the door. Remember, Dancers get in free!!

Christmas Showcase: Our Christmas Showcase will be on December 9th @ 6:30 p.m. @ Eagle Valley Elementary. Please note that the location has changed due to not having enough seating. There is a $7.50 Recital fee per dancer or $10.00 for those with two or more siblings in classes. This fee was due on November 22nd. The recital fee will allow all family & friends to attend this performance. If you have not yet paid this fee, please do so ASAP. The Intermediate & Beginning Tumbling classes will be performing first. All dancers will be meeting on the north side of the bathrooms next to the cafeteria to line up with their individual classes. Dancers will be watching the performance with their classes until it is their turn to perform. You are welcome to come and get your dancer(s) after they perform, in the same place they lined up. All dancers are to wear their pajamas. They can be Christmassy or not. Please leave the front row open when being seated, so those taking pictures and videos of their dancer’s routine, can do so without a blocked view.

Tumbling classes arrive at 6:10                                       All other classes arrive at 6:15

Christmas Santa Charity Performance: We will be having the classes that performed at Festival of Trees performing at this Charity Event. It will be on Saturday, December 11th at 11:30. Dancers need to arrive at 11:15 to get lined up and stretched. We will be wearing the same costumes we wore to perform at the Festival. Please refer to the same line-up as well. There is no cost to perform. Santa will be there for children to sit on his lap. If you want to sit on Santa’s lap you must bring a donation for the families they are holding this event for. Pictures will also be available More information will come on a separate flyer.

Holidays: Christmas Break: No Classes will be held December 20th – January 2nd.

I am so glad we have so many opportunities to perform this month. Performances are great for dancers. It helps to make them a better dancer. Plus they all love and enjoy it. Every class is doing an exceptional job. I couldn’t have asked for better students and teachers. Thank you all for your business and support of our studio. For those of you who haven’t been informed, we have now moved the studio down stairs. Make sure your dancers know they are to wait in the upstairs dance room until their teacher or I take them downstairs. We will soon have the basement entrance ready for them to use. Notes with instructions will come home when it is ready to go.

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
