Last Rehearsal before school...

Monday we will have our last rehearsal before school starts. I need everyone there for this one. We will do final placement for all the formations. If you cannot be there we will have you flap off stage at some point before the end - just for the performance on Wednesday. Then we will adjust the formation for the actual show in regular rehearsals next week.

Meet Monday the 26th at HS at 9 am.
I would like everyone to wear black pants, and a tshirt. PUT THEM in your Backpacks today so you will have them on the first day of school! Don't forget to put your tap shoes in there too Tuesday night!

You guys are doing awesome!

Week of Aug 19th --- last week of Summer!!!!!

Sorry this is being posted so late. Just got back in town. So this is the schedule for the week:

Aug 20th - Tuesday - 9-10:30 (NOTICE THE TIME!!!!)
Aug 22nd - Thursday - SAME
Aug 23rd - Friday - SAME
EVERY day at the HS!!!!!
EVERYONE needs to be at EVERY rehearsal this week. This is the last 3 rehearsals before the official Rehearsals beginning with you performing for the rest of the cast!

Those that cannot make these will perform for the cast the chair part, but will have to be off stage for the rest. But no worries you have until Harvest Break to have it cleaned up and looking perfect! (Notice I did not say November - you have 2 other hard dances to learn and we will only be spending time to run through this one and clean up after the school year starts.)

Please check in with other tappers Monday to make sure they have checked the blog!

Thanks!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002M2PDM4/ref=oh_d__o00_details_o00__i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


I think it is like $1.30 for the song, if you want to buy it yourself.
But you are not required to.
