COMPANY DIRECTOR'S NOTE!
NOTES FROM KRISTEN!

Hello Company Families! 

Wow! What an exciting week at the studio! Congratulations to the Nutcracker Principals and Ensembles Cast and to everyone who auditioned on all of their hard work and effort! I definitely believe that auditions provide a wonderful experience and opportunity to grow and learn as a dancer and individual, regardless of the end result. I'm so proud of all of you and can't wait to see this year's beautiful performance! 

Here are a few reminders:
  • Contracts are due ASAP! WE are still waiting on a few contracts, including solo/duet/ trio contracts! Please get them turned in ASAP!
  • Sunday rehearsals will begin Sunday, September 11th- exact times TBA. Please note: some routines may not start that day. I will keep you posted!
  • Kari Herman is coming BACK to Center Stage! See below for information on dates for master classes!
  • Parent Booster Club! I've had one volunteer so far- thank you so much- but we need more! Fundraising is vital for our company team and without parent volunteers to help organize the fundraisers, we won't be able to make it happen! Please send me an email if you are able to help out!
As always, if you have any questions, please send me an email or give the front desk a call at 660.747.6133!

Have a great week!

Kristen, Company Director

COMPANY PARENT BOOSTER CLUB!
PARENTS- WE WANT (and NEED) YOU!

We know we have AWESOME parents and many of you have asked how you can be more involved/ help out with Company, so here's your chance! 

We formally started our Parent Booster Club last season and for now it will be primarily in charge of Company Fundraisers- helping organize them, etc... 

WITHOUT PARENT HELP, WE WON'T BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO HAVE FUNDRAISERS! 

If you are interested in being a part of the Parent Booster Club please email me ASAP at kdrice13@yahoo.com! The Little Caesars Fundraiser is right around the corner!!!

COMPANY HEADSHOTS!
JUST A REMINDER!
Company Headshots 2014-15
We will be taking Company and Pre-Company photos on Sunday, September 11th!

All competition dancers will need to attend this exciting opportunity!!!  We plan on taking individual headshots and group photos- which means we need everyone there to get complete group pictures!

More details will be coming your way soon!
