TUESDAY, FEB. 1!!

Be sure to continue to check here, our blog, our answering machine, emails, WWNY, WWTI, and the major FM radio stations for any closings or cancellations. I am at this time anticipating that we will be closing tomorrow so make sure you are prepared for this and for staying safe with your families! I am watching the weather for tonight and hoping that we will be able to get classes in. Stay safe!

End of January Updates

- billing statements have been distributed in everyone's file folders! These may not necessarily include costume balances, January, or competition fees (unless you had any previous balances...in which case these items will be listed too). If you do not have a statement in your folder then you are up to date!

- February is almost upon us! Continue to be aware of our procedures for cancellations due to inclement weather: WWNY, WWTI, radio, blog, Facebook, emails, and our answering machine.
