Recital Pictures

Picture Schedules and Order Forms will be handed out at Costume Pick Up Day.  You will also be able to view the schedule online at www.pamsacademyofdance.net or pick them up at either location during office hours! 

 

All recital pictures will be taken at the Channahon studio.  Pictures will be taken on Friday, April 8 and Saturday, April 9. 

 

Please check your schedule for your child's exact times.   

 

Please be aware that some costumes are in need of alterations before recital.  In many cases, your child's pants might be too long.  Costume companies purposefully leave the edges of the pants raw to allow for cutting/hemming to take place.  There are many instances where we had to order costumes based on a child's girth and not his/her inseam.   

 

Please make sure your child has the correct shoes!  If he/she received the blue 1/4 sheet of paper, you will need to purchase the correct shoes for pictures and recital!  All shoes can be purchased at Divine Dancewear, Inc. located in the Channahon studio.  Please keep in mind that some shoes may need to be ordered.
