We can purchase these tickets at a discount from Kristine at $40.00/adult and $30.00/child. Please email Donna Melenka directly at dkmelenka@gmail.com, so the number of tickets can be easily tallied. Kristine will bring the tickets on Monday, January 28/13 so please let Donna know prior to Sunday, January 27th.

Hope a good number of our members can make it to support our instructor. Thank you.

Zabava Costuming

Costumes will be distributed on Monday, Jan. 21. Please bring your dancer at the specified time.
This will be either before or after the class. Be prepared to spend 30-45 minutes.
I have tried to make the times easier for everyone, but I'm sorry that it might interfere with meals or bedtimes.
This is the only way to get costumes to everyone.
The costume parent will be collecting damage deposit cheques. Please have a cheque - undated - It will be returned after the dance season.
I have some cheques from last year. They will simply be passed on to this year. (if cheque will cover new costume)
Please meet in the "dungeon" - storage room, downstairs in the post office, red door on the north side of the building, probably park at back.

Yellow group - Costumes are still being sewn.

Orange group - Meet at the school at 4:30. (I bring costumes for smaller dancers.)

Green group - Costumes are still being sewn.

Blue group - Meet at "dungeon" at 7:15.

Purple group - Meet at "dungeon" at 6:30.

Red group - Meet at "dungeon" at 5:00

Black group - Meet at "dungeon" at 5:45.

Please be there on time. It is much easier when everyone is present.
Any questions - call Lydia or your costume parent. 


Thank you,
Lydia 
Costume Director

Co-Costume Chair Still Needed ASAP

There are still two Executive Positions that have not been filled:

Relay For Life Coordinator and Co-Costume Chair.

It is very important that we fill the Co-Costume Chair position immediately. This individual will work closely with Lydia Lastiwka to learn as much as possible before Lydia's daughter no longer dances with Sopilka. Jennifer still has a few years to dance, therefore this person would not be thrown into the position, but would have extensive education in learning "the ropes". We would like this position to be filled by a parent that has been with the club for a couple years and who thinks that their child(ren) will be with the club long term.

Please think about it and reply to sopilkavegreville@gmail.com if you would either like more information or better yet, like to become Sopilka's Co-Costume Chair.

Thank you for your consideration.

PERFECT ATTENDANCE AWARDS

It was brought to the November 5/12 General Meeting the question of: "Is attendance taken at makeup classes?" It was discussed and voted on that:

Attendance would not be taken at makeup classes, therefore not affecting the chance for the "perfect attendance" award.

Attendance would be taken at the Seniors Tour and would affect the "perfect attendance" award.

Hope this clarifies things :)
