Rotary Information! IMPORTANT
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
Hello all dancers and parents!
The festival is just around the corner, and the students have been working really hard to perfect their routines. Attendance is crucial for the strength of the groups, so please make every effort to be at ALL classes the next few weeks.
This note contains a lot of information, so please take the time to note what is relevant to your dancer.
Location: Yukon Arts Centre
Dates: Wednesday April 19thand Thursday April 20th
Times: Morning Sessions start at 11am. Afternoon Sessions start at 1pm
Awards:Juniors (under 12 years) Friday April 28that 7:00pm. Seniors (over 12 years) Saturday April 29that 7:00pm (more details after April 20th)
Attached is the festival schedule. Please look carefully for your class name. Each dance is allotted 5 minutes; therefore, if your group happens to be the 12throutine of the morning session, you would dance at 12:00 noon. ** Please be back stage, performance ready, 30 minutes (approximately 6 dances) before your dance **
I will not be down in the dressing room area very much, as I will be backstage, so please be responsible and be ready. The festival is different than a Leaping Feats show. Other dance students from other dance schools will all be sharing the same space. Other than changing into costumes, please get ready (hair, make up, etc.) BEFORE you arrive to the Yukon Arts Centre, and please be respectful to all other dancers.
Fees:
All festival related fees were dueMonday April 3rd. If paying by cheque, please make it payable to Leaping Feats. All dancers have been entered into the festival on behalf of Leaping Feats already, but if you have not paid your entrance fee yet, please make every effort to do so. Student Choreography fees are $65.00 per dance, divided by the number of dancers in the routine. Extra Choreography fees are $375.00 per dance, divided by the number of dancers in the routine.
Awards and Regulations:
The adjudicator will select a couple junior routines and a couple senior routines to be performed at the final ceremony! Please visithttp://www.rmfestival.cafor all information regarding the festival. The awards ceremonies are for the entire festival, music and dance. At the ceremonies, top marks will be recognized and overalls will be presented with a trophy! We will not know who will need to attend the awards ceremonies until Friday April 21st.
Thanks Everyone!
