Always a busy week at the studio and this one is not exception. On the list of here we go again: I regret to give notice that the I have been informed by the building association that the complex will be repaved the weekend of March 24-26th. We will not be allowed access to the studio on any of these days... Friday/Saturday and Sunday! For our Friday and Saturday classes, please take a make up lesson..... for our Lion King rehearsal we will move it to the Pittsford Park adjacent to the Lake Forest Elementary School on Saturday morning, March 25 from 9-11:00 only with all dancers being called. There is never a good time for us to lose a weekend but this time it is literally not of my doing. If it rains, then the repaving will be cancelled and reschedule and we will be allowed back in the building and parking lots. I will keep everyone updated accordingly, but for now, these are the arrangements. I appreciate your flexibility in advance and thank you for your understanding. and now more news: Recital commitment forms for the June performance are due this Friday. Costumes are once again and issue and after Friday, late orders may not arrive on time if they are available. IPlkease turn the form in even if your dancer is not performing in the show. If you don't I will continue to bother you as I try to remember but don't always remember what I am told. Hard copies work best for me. Rehearsals this week: Saturday: ANGELS TEAM IS ON! 9-12:00. I would love to have another dancer or two if you are in middle school or older. Fees will not be charged until the first rehearsal so if you need to add to your ticket count kindly let me know. The game is on Friday night, April 21 at 6:30- and we perform pre-game on the infield. and still More: Our competition dancers had a great weekend in LA at Star Systems placing in the platinum category.... another competition is happening this weekend in LA so wish the girls luck! Dream Team; no more rehearsals before our half-time game in LA with the South Bay Lakers on March 25th. We will be performing at half-time and have been invited after the game for an on court photo op with the Laker Girls. I'll have more info next week and your tickets will be arriving soon. and lastly.... Congratulations to our dancers who auditioned for, and we accepted into many of the Joffrey Ballet School's Summer Intensives. Our dancers were offered scholarships/trainee programs and the opportunity to dance all over the US. I look forward to seeing where they will all be going! Do you like Skittles or Starburst? and finally: CLOSED FOR SPRING BREAK, MONDAY, APRIL 3- SATURDAY, APRIL 8th - (for dancers in town there is a rehearsal called for all LION KING performers 9-11:00) Thank you all for reading and please let me know what I have missed!
