Visitors: In order for all students to receive the best training possible, the teacher must have their complete attention. Visitors, including parents, are not allowed inside the dance studio. Guests of the Windsor location are welcome to observe class via the observation window. Unfortunately, there is no waiting room at the Eaton location. We ask that Eaton parents drop off their child but do not stay to watch.

Spring Recital: The annual recital is scheduled for Tuesday, June 17th at 6:00 PM at the Union Colony Civic Center Monfort Theater in Greeley. The recital is an optional performance; however, everyone is encouraged to participate. It is a fun and rewarding experience for the kids and parents. If you do participate, please recognize the importance of your commitment to the show. Thank you in advance for checking your summer schedules for conflicting activities.

Recital Fee: A $25 per family recital fee will be charged to your account February 1, 2008 and will be due April 1, 2008. This fee helps with costs associated with putting on the recital such as auditorium rental, props, programs, etc. Each family will receive 2 adult tickets into the show with their paid recital fee. Tickets for other family members and friends will be $5 for adults and $1 for children 3 - 12 yrs which can be purchased at the door. Please feel free to invite all friends and family. The more the merrier!

Rehearsal: There will be a mandatory full dress rehearsal on Monday, June 16th during daytime hours at the Union Colony Civic Center Monfort Theater. Specific rehearsal times will be given to you two weeks before the rehearsal. NOTE: If your child does not attend the rehearsal, he or she will not perform in the recital. NO EXCEPTIONS!

Costumes: You will notice that your account has been charged $44 for each class in which your child is registered for costumes. This fee is due February 1st for all students participating in the recital. IMPORTANT: Students registering after February 1st, 2008 will not be allowed to participate in the recital as it is too late to get a costume. Please put your costume money on a check seperate from your tuition and label in the memo field "Costumes". Please let me know ASAP if your child will NOT be participating in the recital.

The 2008 spring season begins Monday, January 7th. Please see the schedule listed below to confirm the day and time of your child's scheduled class and the monthly tuition due.
