June Newsletter

June Newsletter
***SOME IMPORTANT TIMES & LOCATIONS HAVE CHANGED. PLEASE THROW ALL OTHER EMAILS AND SCHEDULES AWAY. SAVE THIS ONE!***

I can’t believe that this year is coming to an end! We are all so excited to show you all what we have been working so hard on, “Summertime Magic” is going to be great! I wanted to remind you of a few things about the next three weeks. (This will be the last newsletter that you will be receiving before our show.)

If you have not registered for fall or summer there are still classes available. I have attached a schedule so you know what is available. You can email me the classes you want or you can go online and register at timpschoolofdance.blogspot.com. If somebody you know registers for classes and they are NEW to the studio, you don’t have to pay your $15 registration fee!! Just email me and let me know who they are and we’ll adjust your account! Classes next fall begin on Monday August 31. You will be getting a reminder email in August so that you will remember what you have registered your child(ren) for.

***We will be distributing costumes to students the week of June 8th in their class. If your child does not receive their costume in their class, I will have it at the studio for pick-up. (If you owe any money to the studio, your child will not receive their costume until your account is paid in full, this includes the tiny ones too!)

It’s picture time!
Thursday June 18, is our picture day at Cory Adams. The schedule of times is attached. Please allow your children to come and be in the group pictures even if you do not plan on buying any pictures yourself. Your children should come dressed in their correct costume, with the right color of tights, shoes, and hair as explained on a flier in this newsletter. Also, please be on time according to the Cory Adams Schedule, they do things fast there and I would hate for anyone to miss their group picture. The time schedule for this day is also attached. If you will NOT be at pictures, please email me and let me know so that we don’t wait for you.

It’s Show Time!!
I have hired, Big Think Marketing & Media again to tape & sell DVD’s of our show. They will have a table set up at the show where you can buy a DVD of “Summertime Magic” for $20.00 if you want to pick up your copy in Cedar Hills or $23.00 if you would like your copy mailed to you. Remember there will be NO personal video taping aloud at our show!

Wednesday June 17
SUMMERTIME MAGIC PERFORMANCE @ COVEY CENTER FOR THE ARTS @ 7PM
ADDRESS IS: 425 West Center Street Provo

Wednesday June 17
DRESS REHEARSAL@ Covey Center
**TIME CHANGE**
12pm – 4pm (All students not listed below)
2pm – Finished (no later then 4pm) (Combo 3yrs, Combo 4yrs, Combo 5yrs, Combo 6 & 7yrs)

This is our MANDATORY dress rehearsal for all dancers at Covey Center for the Arts. (If your child is not there she will not be allowed to dance in our show) This is a full dress rehearsal, they need costume, tights, shoes and anything else that goes with their costume on that day. There is no need for hair or makeup at this rehearsal. If your child is in a Combo Class she will be excused after she does her dance, so have a driver there waiting for her. Please have older children bring a quiet activity to do while waiting, they will not be dancing the whole time but they need to be there the whole time. (If you know your child needs extra help sitting quietly, and not running around please feel free to stay with them the whole time.) Please do not be late, we have a lot to accomplish in a short amount of time. We will be finished around 4pm.

Our show that evening will start promptly at 7pm (Doors open at 6pm). Please have your dancers there and ready to dance by 6:30pm. If you have a little one please take her potty before you bring her to her dressing room. Just so you are aware, we will NOT be selling flowers at this performance, but feel free to bring your own if you want.
***After the show, you must pick up your child at their dressing room. The dancers will not be allowed to come through the curtain after the last bow, they will all be taken back to their dressing room for safety reasons. Please do not allow young sons to go into your child’s dressing room because kids will be changing their clothes.
