VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

It takes many people to pull together our annual recital.  Please consider volunteering your time during the Saturday or Sunday recital performances or the Sunday Shining Stars Showcase.  

 

Sign up to help out at any of our performances conveniently online at Sign Up Genius  

 

We are always looking for more moms to help out in our dressing rooms during the show.  If your child performs both days, you can watch one day and help out backstage the other day. All dressing room monitors will receive one free ticket to either show for themselves or a friend or family member.

 

 We are also looking for ushers for all shows, parking monitor (keeping folks out of the firelanes), security in the auditorium during the show and help with clean up after the final Sunday show.

Stage Rehearsal

The onstage rehearsal will be held  Friday, May 29th. All classes will rehearse onstage on this date.  The rehearsal schedule will be distributed at the beginning of May. 
 
As you can imagine, it is difficult to create a schedule that is convenient for all Dance Corner families.  Please let Miss Carrie know about any school concerts, field trips etc, that may interfere with your child's ability to attend rehearsal on May 29th by April 20th. 
 
We will do our best to schedule classes at times that work for everyone.
