All competition fees, tuition and costume balance must be paid in full by January 20, 2012. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to see me. Thank you for your understanding.
Lodging
Center Stage has blocked rooms at the Drury Inn in Joplin. You do not have to stay at this hotel, but we have stayed there before and loved it! More info about this hotel will be included in a packet that we will send home with your dancer. Make your reservations before February 10th!
Shirts
We will be wearing matching shirts at the competition. The shirts help us stand out as a team and make a great cover up. However, you do not have to buy a competition t-shirt. You are encouraged to wear all your Center Stage attire to show you studio spirit! If you want to buy a Center Stage warm up suite, dance bag or garment bag, please send me your order asap.
Extra Practices and Showcase Scheduled
We have schedule extra practices for those going to competition on Saturday, February 18, February 25, and March 3. We will also have a competition showcase on Saturday, March 10 at 2:00 at the Bolivar High School. These practices are mandatory, you are only allowed to miss one practice. Mark your calendars.
