Everyone did an awesome jobs at auditions!  We are so proud of all of you!!
 
*Please watch for an email with more informaiton for next year such as tuition rates and schedules for the new teams.
 
*Please remember we have next camp Wednesday June 23 thru Saturday June 26.  Please remember to send lots of snacks and water.  Right now we are planning on having camp from 9-5 Wed-Fri (9-1 for 7yrs and under) and 10-3 on Saturday.  We may adjust Friday's schedule to end a little earlier to make it easier to get to Classic by 6PM.  The swim party is at Classic Waterslides in Riverdale 6-8PM.  It is free to those attending camp but $5 for everyone else.  Even if you are not swimming.  We are having a showcase on Saturday at 3:30PM.  If you have not yet paid for camp, and you wish to attend you still can.  Just add a $15 late fee to your camp payment and please have it to the studio by Monday so we will have a correct lunch count.  PLEASE DON'T SEND YOUR DANCER TO CAMP IF YOU HAVE A BALANCE, OR IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID FOR CAMP.  They will not be allowed to participate in any part of camp and will be told to call their parents to pick them up.  Please please do not put your dancer or our office staff through the trama!!  I emailed out statements today, so you should know if you have a balance.  But if you just want to make sure you can text me or email me and I will let you know.
 
*Also, I received very few deposits for the ballet intensive in July.  Please be aware if you do not attend a ballet intensive over the summer you will not be allowed to compete in a lyrical routine next year...even if you made compnay.  If you have not yet paid your deposit and you plan to attend please bring it in on Monday.  The balance for the intesive is due on June 25th.
 
HUT HUT!!

EDF TEAM AUDITIONS

*We are making a change in how we are doing team auditions this year.  Instead of doing them on Thursday, we are going to do them Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday during classes.  This will give all the teachers a better opportunity to work with each dancer before making a decision as to which team they should be placed on.  The following is the schedule for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday:
4:30-5:30PM 5 & under
5:30-7PM 6-7yrs
6:30-8:30PM 8-10yrs
6-8:30PM 11-13yrs
5:30-8:30 14yrs and up
Parents please plan on coming in with your dancer(s) on Monday to fill out a new registration form.  If you have not filled out a form and paid your audition fee we will assume you are just taking classes and do not want to be placed on a team.  Audition results will be emailed and posted on the website by Wednesday June 23rd.
*Dance camp fees were due on Monday June 21st.  There is now a $15 late fee being charged for camp.  Dance camp is June 23rd-June 26th.  The tentative schedule is:
Wed-Fri 9AM-5PM for dancers 7 & up
Wed-Fri 9AM-1PM for dancers 7 & under
Sat. 10AM-3PM for all dancers with a showcase at 3:30PM
On Friday night 6-8PM we will be having a party at Classic Water slides in Riverdale.  All dancers who have paid for camp will get in free, parents and siblings are $5 each.  YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO ATTEND DANCE CAMP UNLESS YOU HAVE A ZERO BALANCE AND YOU HAVE PAID IN FULL FOR CAMP. 
*Cati's ballet intensive is scheduled for July 26th thru July 31st from 9AM-1PM.  If you would like to be considered for a lyrical next year, YOU MUST TAKE A BALLET INTENSIVE.  This does not guarantee you a spot in a lyrical, however if you do not take a ballet intensive you will not be allowed to compete in a lyrical.  The fee for the intensive is $150.  If you are an unlimited student you will receive a $10 discount.  The fee is subject to change.  (If we have a huge response with lots of dancers the fee will be reduced, if we don't get very many dancers the fee will be increased).  The times may change a little if we need to split the classes a bunch because of difference in ability.  (We may have some of the younger girls come for a shorter time for a lesser fee, depending on how many there are.)  A deposit of $50 is due by Monday June 21st.  After that date I will be able to give you a firm price and times because I will know who is planning to attend.
HUT HUT!
