In an effort to keep things organized we have created a new page on the website to house the Dance Excellence information. Here is the link: http://www.nhapa.org/dance-excellence.html

It lives under Company Corner-please take a look on what we have listed so far. We will continue to add details there as they are communicated to us.

Thank you to all that have reached out or completed their section of our Master List. We are still in the process of completing a master list for all travelers for flights and room assignments. IT IS CRITICAL we have all information complete to send to Dance Excellence in order to coordinate arrivals and departures. They are trying to provide shuttles when large groups of students are arriving and knowing those times is imperative. They also give the extra rooms they have reserved for Saturday out on first come first serve with paperwork. We will need those rooms at that discounted rate!

PLEASE convey to all dancers that they should dump all liquids and ice in sink before disposing of it in the trash cans around the studio. Makes for a BIG mess otherwise. Thank you for your cooperation as this has been an on-going issue.
