Welcome Back Everyone
We welcome back our dancers both old and new, hope everyone had a memorable summer. We would like to extend a special welcome to Chantel our new modern and lyrical teacher at Woodlyn, Liz our new hip hop and cheerdance instructor at Glen Mills, and Abbe our new hip hop instructor in Woodlyn. All three staff members have a wealth of knowledge and are eager to begin classes.
Caddy Solutions
We are currently taking orders for our new dance bags. A sample bag is in the lobby, along with order forms, a poster shows all the bags available for purchase. Caddy Solution orders will be taken until October 1st, that is the deadline for a holiday delivery.
Perfect Candy Fundraiser
Our first fundraiser of the season is Perfect Candy. The bags sell one for $6.00 or 2 for $10.00. Our dancers earn 50% profit. This is a great way to help offset the cost of dance classes. The credit earned from the sale can be used for dance shoes, costume deposits, convention and competition fees, etc. There is an order form attached to your newsletter. Additional forms are available in the lobby. This sale runs from September 14th until October 2nd. The candy will be delivered, with our logo on the bags, the week of October 26th.
Ticket to Broadway Nationals
Congratulations to our competition team who did an awesome job at the Poconos this past summer. The junior team won second place overall in the large group division for their routine entitled "I Just Wanna Be Happy". The team received 5 first place finishes, 3 second place finishes and 7 third place finishes.
Competition Team Meeting & Placement
The first competition team meeting will be on Sunday, October 20th at the Woodlyn studio at 1:00pm. We will be covering the competition seasonal schedule, medical forms, rules & regulations, team placements, cost for the season, team fundraisers, and the routines planned for the season.
Riversharks Performance
Our summer program will finally be coming to an end on Wednesday, September 16th, when 18 of our dancers take the field pre-game to perform for the Camden Riversharks Baseball Team. The girls have previously tried to dance on July 31st and August 22nd both games were cancelled due to heavy rainfall resulting in flooded streets, dug outs, and seats. This is the last game of the season, if you would like to come out and support our dancers please stop at the desk for additional details.
