February Newsletter

FEBRUARY NEWSLETTER

Hello everybody, your children are looking great in their classes, and as some of you know, the next big performance for our Studio will be “Summertime Magic.” The date for this performance is Monday June 22. I have moved the date because of Strawberry Days, vacations etc. Please mark your calendars early to save this date. We will perform the show at American Fork High School. I have put the dress rehearsal and the performance ON THE SAME DAY to avoid summertime family conflicts. The mandatory rehearsal & performance dates and times are on Monday June 22. Dress Rehearsal will be 9am-1:00pm (11:00am-1:00pm for all young children in combo 3, 4, 5, 6, & 7). Our performance will start at 7pm that same night. I hope this helps with everybody’s schedules. I will be ordering ALL costumes next month. Starting MARCH 1st, you will be responsible for full payment of costumes. ( I will have the cost breakdown sent to you in the next two weeks) If you are not planning on being in the performance I need to know this month. Thank You! (Remember, we will be re-using our nutcracker ballet costumes for our spring performance, so some of you will not need to pay an extra costume fee. Please keep these costumes nice for our next show!)


Summertime Magic info
As I announced in the September Newsletter and the Studio Policy information, there will be a $35 performance fee charged to each dancer’s family (not each dancer) for our show instead of charging for admission tickets. This means that all your family members, friends, and neighbors can come and see the show for free! There will be no exceptions for this fee. If your daughter is performing, the fee will be owed. The reason for this is rental of American Fork High School, it is very expensive. This fee will be due the first week of May with your tuition.

I am trying to schedule to have pictures taken by Cory Adams Photography AT OUR DRESS REHEARSAL on Monday June 22. I will send you a schedule of times in an upcoming newsletter.

Studio will be closed
Monday Feb. 16 – Presidents Day

Account Balance Information
Did you know that you can view all of your account/payment/class information online? Go to the website timpschoolofdance.blogspot.com and click on the first link titled REGISTRATION. That will take you to the sign in page. Follow the directions from there. When you are logged in, you can see a breakdown of the monthly payments that have been made, if there are any late fees, and what classes your dancers are registered for. We have many of you who have underpaid or overpaid. Check it out.

Nutcracker DVD’s
I will let you all know when the Nutcracker DVD’s will be available for pick up; they should be finished in the next couple of weeks!


Please remember to get your children in their classes each week. It is important so that they can learn their dances. Thank you all for your continual support & for letting us work with your great children! We are still taking new students all month, if you have friends or family that want to join us, let them know soon! If you have any questions please send me an email or call 796-7049!
