Hey everyone! We are so excited about tomorrow night! Just wanted to send out a few reminders!
First off the event has been moved to the High school gym to give us more space since we have had an amazing response!
It will cost $5 per family to enter. We will have a photographer there to take pictures as well for an additional $5. (You will receive a digital copy of your photo.) Both of these will need to be paid in cash.
Secondly, if you have someone that is not your child’s legal parent or guardian they HAVE TO have a note from a legal parent/guardian stating who they are coming with and that you give them permission.
Also with all of this being said, all dancers will need to come into the building together. A daughter will not be permitted without an adult there to accompany her and an adult will not be allowed to come in without the child.
We are so excited to have you all come and remember if you did not turn in the original note that went out that is ok! You are still welcome to come!! We hope to have an amazing turn out!
