Extra Rehearsals

 

During the week of December 19th  regular classes will not be held on Monday, December 19th or Tuesday, December 20th. Additional rehearsals may be called for either of these two days. We anticipate Monday classes may have extra rehearsals on one of these two day because we were off for Halloween. Check the white board at the SDC rehearsal on December 17th to see if your class is scheduled for an extra rehearsal. Check your email and the SDC website too!

Costumes

We have measured your children for the costume pieces that SDC will be providing for the holiday show. We ask that parents provide a base costume. SDC provides the rest! 

 

For example, a hip hop student may receive a T-shirt and hat from SDC and parents are asked to  provide  basketball shorts, socks, and shoes of their own. A ballet student may receive a tutu and headpiece from SDC and parents are asked to provide a leo of certain color, tights, and shoes.  

 

You will soon receive a list of the items we ask that you provide. On Your November statement, there was a $20 charge for the costume pieces per class that SDC will provide.

The Surge Skate Night
