SCHOLARSHIP DRAWING: As part of your registration fee, each dancer is entered into a scholarship drawing for the 2nd half of the year. We will be drawing the name of one lucky dancer at our last class in December. Good luck to all!
FEIS REMINDER: Dancers’ age & category (depending on what they have won in the year 2011) change on January 1st, 2012.
CLASS FEES: December fees are now due. We have some outstanding November fees still owed. Please take care of this immediately. If you will not be at class, please mail your fees directly to your teacher. Thank you.
SCHOOL DANCE: As our school dance is always in February, the calendar is filling up fast. We need a chairperson/committee. Please let Karen know ASAP. The dance proceeds are used to subsidize school activities and fund scholarships.
ALL-IRELANDS / WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS: We need to know ASAP if you plan on attending the All-Ireland Championships. Entries are due very soon. Also, to any of our World qualifiers, just a reminder of what Patsy has already talked to you about previously. Jimmy and Terry will find out shortly if they have been selected to judge at this year’s Worlds. If they are selected you will not be able to attend this year’s Worlds, but you will keep your qualification until next year’s Worlds in Boston.
NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIPS: If you are planning to attend, please let us know ASAP so we can get the appropriate info to you.
Don’t forget, we have school tee shirts and shorts, which would make a nice stocking stuffer!
Please check the class calendars on the website to see when the holiday closings are and when class resumes.
We wish all our dancers and their families a
Merry Christmas a Happy New Year!
