T8C Competition News
2017-2018
Dear Parents,
After speaking with some parents, I am creating this "news" type letter for the competition team. I will PIN THIS to the top and will add to it and let you know when I've done so. If you'd like to print this, you can. I hope this will help those of you that are still fairly new and those of you that just need reminders.
Please make sure to communicate rules with guests and with your dancers.
I appreciate you.
Shanelle
