Please look for an attachment in your emails next week as we will be sending a copy of the recital packet and shoes and tights list as well as pasting it to the website. This is for you to get a head start on the supplies needed, and dates to be saved for your children. We recommend Attitudes Dancewear in Largo- 727-586-0447. Attitudes carries all the shoes and tights we require for our show . The store here in town DOES NOT carry our tights, please do not buy tights for the recital there. I require the tights from Attitudes because they are the best quality for your money. I strongly suggest if you are a first time buyer for a little one, making the drive and having your child fitted properly for the correct shoes. It is very important for all the children to have the exact tights and shoes from the list provided while on stage to avoid distraction. Costumes have been ordered and are scheduled to arrive around Pinellas Counties Spring Break, they will be issued after the break. If you came after Thanksgiving, or Christmas or the 1st of the year, or this month, your costume was ordered separately, and will be here before picture week in May. People who sign up late in the year tend to panic when their costumes don't arrive at the same time as the other kids, please don't panic, they will arrive before the show. Vital information is provided in these packets and it changes yearly, so please take the time to read through it thoroughly, and if you have any questions, please ask us as soon as possible.
We will have a signup sheet for volunteers for our show next month. Without volunteers our show cannot run smoothly. We are giving out an incentive this year, because we have had people sign up with good intention, and no call no show. This leaves us shorthanded and causes delay, and stress on the children the few volunteers who do show and the staff running the show . Everyone's job is vital to the fluidity of the show. One person not showing up can throw a wrench in the whole thing. After saying all that this year there will be a mandatory volunteer meeting with Gina Meyers who has kindly volunteered her time to be the head of all volunteers. We will be needing 2 parents from every class to help. Once your time that you sign up for has been completed(Saturday night after the show ), you will report to Miss Gina and you will be given a gift certificate to use for summer classes, camps, or apparel at Dance Evolutions. All will be explained in the meeting, and the date for the meeting will be in the next news letter.
In the time being if you do not receive our emails regularly, PLEASE see the desk so we can correct your email address, we are human, (and Miss Diana is blind as a bat!) so there could be a typo. Email is our main source of communication. To contact Miss Diana please use the dianareichardt22@gmail.com address, and she will respond to you within 24 hours. Please also get in the habit of checking our website, as we are always updating information. We also have a facebook page! Please make it a point to stay in the know!
Our Dance team will be competing in their first competition in Lakeland at the end of the month. It is free to watch the competition at the Center in Lakeland. You may check the desk for competition times, and come cheer on our girls, we would love the support. We are also stocked up on Dance Evolutions apparel to support our team.
We have had 20 new enrollments since January! Lets welcome our new families with open arms and show them what a great choice they made. We truly have the most professional, educated staff around, the most supportive families, and the most dedicated inspired dancers around!!
