CONCERT INFO!!!

Parents,

I am so excited for this upcoming recital, the girls have worked so hard and we are all so excited for them to finally be able to show off their progress this year. Below is the order of the program, please be sure that if your daughter has a costume change you are aware of which costume they will perform in first (that will be the costume they need to arrive wearing to the dress rehearsal as well as the recital.) Also please be sure to LABEL EVERYTHING (yes I mean everything) There will be so many of the same costumes I would hate for people to misplace anything at this recital and not have it for the next. I appreciate your help and am really looking forward to this coming week!

Thanks: Brittani

Tuesday 3-4 yr old costumes are FINALLY here!


Dear Tuesday Parents:
I want to apologize for the huge delay in getting your costumes to you. I have used this catalog for 3 yrs. now and have never had a problem until now. We are now on our third costume order (the original was coming in from China and wasn't going to be here in the time they had said, the second costume they only sent the leotards and when I called back about the skirts they were on back order, the third costume they over-nighted them and only sent part of my order.) So to say the least I have really gotten to know a few people over at the costume catalog, and they are finally here. If you would like to come and pick them up prior to Tuesday please feel free, and also let me know if they don't fit, I'm not sure we would be able to get exchanges before the recital but I will certainly try my hardest. Thanks again for your patience and I can't wait to see their smiling faces up on the stage in their costumes!
Thanks: Brittani

Maternity Leave

As most of you can tell by the looks of me I am about ready to pop! As such I wanted to reassure all the parents that while I am on maternity leave classes will go just as normal. Lindsay and Becca will be substituting all of my classes for the couple of weeks I will be taking to re-cooperate.

Most of the girls dances have been started and some have even been completed. The teachers will work on those with the girls, and classes will go on just as they have. I appreciate all of your trust in me and for your concern for me. I can't wait to have this little girlie and hopefully add one more dancer to our studio(ha ha ha!)

If I haven't had the baby before then I will be starting my maternity leave after September 30th. Thanks again for all you do, and know I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to work with each of your daughters!
Thanks: Brittani and baby!

Costume note


I will be ordering costumes for the recital, as such each girl will be measured in class over the next couple of weeks. If you are planning on participating in the recital but won’t be in class please let me know so I can get your measurements another time. Fees for costumes will be due by September 17th, I will need to get the order’s in no later than the 19th in order for them to arrive before the Christmas recital. The costumes will be used for the Christmas and Spring recital so this is a one time fee. Academy A and B will be ordering Lyrical costumes in the spring but their price will only be about $20.00. If you have questions or need to set up a payment plan please let me know…after this there shouldn’t be any other fees until the recital fee!
