SPRING SHOW LOLLIPOP FUNDRAISER DEADLINE IS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28!
Anyone wishing to participate in the Spring Show fundraiser MUST submit an order form by this Friday, Oct. 28.
As outlined in the ASD Handbook given to each ASD student, this fundraiser is to help dancers offset their Spring Show participation costs. Remember, every 2nd-12th grade ASD dancer performing in the Spring Show will need to pay $130 total ($80 for costumes and $50 for their show participation fee), and K-1st grade dancers will need to pay $75 total ($40 for costumes and a $35 participation fee).
Through the lollipop fundraiser, dancers can earn either half or all of their show participation costs.
We
are sorry to announce that we have had to suspend our Ridgefield K-12 program classes for the 2005-06 dance school year. Sign-ups by Sept. 23 unfortunately were too low to allow us to move forward. We'd like to try again next year, so if you're from Ridgefield, please let us know if you're interested in ASD!
Also, we'd like to welcome all K-12 Ridgefieldites to try dancing with ASD this year at one of our three other locations: New Canaan, Wilton or Westport. The Wilton facility is only 8.5 miles from Ridgefield Center down Route 33!
Click here for this year's full K-12 schedule.
Again, we are sorry about this unfortunate situation! Wish us better luck for next year. We hope to see you soon in either Wilton, Westport or New Canaan!
