October Newsletter
Now that things are nice and settled
with students, times changes,and teacher
changes I hope all your girls
(and some boys!!) are enjoying
their classes. If you have any
questions at any time please let
Tami or Nicole know.

Tuition Policy & Costume Fee"s
October Tuition is due. Just a reminder,
all tuition will be due by the 15 of the
month or a $10 fee will be added to your
account, if tuition is not paid in the
month that it is due, a $20 fee will be
added to your account. We will not charge
a late fee for costume monies that are due
if they are paid within the month. Costume
money is due in the month of October. Below
is the cost for costumes (per class). All
Children will be keeping their costumes unless
it is a rental.

October Holiday Schedule
Monday Oct. 5 we WILL BE HAVING DANCE CLASSES
even though there will not be school however,
the studio will be closed Thursday October 15,
due to UEA. We will be having our Halloween
Dress-up days on Tuesday Oct. 27 & Wed Oct. 28
this month. Be sure to send your kids in costumes
they can dance in, and don"t forget
their dance shoes!

Nutcracker Costumes
Nutcracker Costumes are being ordered and
paid for NEXT week. Everybody in a combo class
and/or ballet class will owe a costume fee.
Your costume money is due anytime during this
month. If you cannot pay the entire costume balance
during the month of October please talk with
Tami. Look below for Costume prices per class.

Nutcracker Info
If anybody has a young (well behaved) son in
the 2nd - 6th grade, that would like to
perform in the "Nutcracker" please email me
and let me know! The kids that I know are
performing so far are Russell Rafajko
and Dawson Armstrong. We are in need of 8
little boys that would be willing to dance
in all three performances. (If they cannot
do all three shows, please don"t sign them up.)
They don"t have to dance in tights! Any little
boy with some coordination can do it!! They
would be part of Act 1 Party Scene. We also
need 5 sets of parents to join us as well!
If you volunteer you get into the show to
see your daughter back stage for free!!
Please email me and let me know if you
are interested!

We are also looking for some chaperon's
for any of the performances of the
Nutcracker, there will be a sign up sheet
in the studio starting in November. This
will get you into the show free, but you
will have to back in dressing rooms watching
children the shows and dress rehearsals.
I will be using our staff for other jobs,
and some of them will be performing,
so if you can help in this area,
I would really appreciate it!

Nutcracker Rehearsals
Next month in the November newsletter
I will let you know more details
about rehearsals, and performances of
the "Nutcracker". There will also be
a rehearsal schedule given to your child
in November. Classes will remain
the same (with a few exceptions) until
after Thanksgiving break.All regular
studio classes that are not
involved in the Nutcracker will
remain the same until Christmas Break.
If you have any questions please
don"t hesitate to call ANYTIME.
I want to make this such a memorable
fun experience for your child, so
please let me know if there are any
questions! Thank You all for your support!

Sincerely,
Tami Meacham
