Greetings!



Wow...June is officially here and we only have 3 weeks of classes before the dancers take the stage!  We can't wait!

 

Please take a moment to read our Newsletters.  They are full of very important information!


Picture Day

Picture Day was a huge success.  All the dancers looked stunning in their costumes and were such natural models in front of the cameras.  The smiles, giggles and the fun candid shots made the staff's day fly by.  Thank you again to all our Elite Families for taking time out of their Sunday to participate in Picture Day. 

 
Recital and Ballet Tickets:

Pre-order forms were due last Friday, May 27th.  Tickets orders are now being filled and all pre-ordered tickets will be available for pick up starting at 3:00pm on Monday, June 6th.
What do I do if I did not pre-order tickets or need additional tickets???  After our ticket pre-orders are filled, we will have any 
remaining tickets available for purchase at the front desk.  I will send out one more email next weekend letting our families know how many tickets are left and for which shows.  Families can add their name to the waitlist and tickets will be distributed as they become available.
 
~ If you need wheelchair access seating, please let us know so we can reserve your seats. You can email Gail Knight at [email protected]. Let her know the dancers name, how many seats and for which show.

Questions??  Please do not hesitate to ask your teacher this week.


Room Moms:
 
Every year Renee Timchuk, our backstage coordinator, likes to do a quick informational meeting about being a Room Mom Volunteer.   A few years ago, we also had a request for a meeting that would help answer questions about the whole recital experience for our new dancers and their families. This meeting is optional, but if this is your first time being a "Room Mom Volunteer" or if you are brand new to Elite and have a few questions about the recital, hair, make up, rehearsals, etc., we highly encourage you to attend. The meeting will last about 30 minutes and will be held in the lobby at the studio.

Recital Room Mom and New Student Informational Meeting

Tuesday, June 9th, 7:00pm

 

If you are unable to attend one of these meetings, but you have "Room Mom" questions or would like to sign up to help, please email Renee Timchuk at [email protected].
