A message from the WDFKP Director.
Dear Friends,
We are one week from our 7th annual Will
Dance for Food Competition and couldn’t be more excited! Thank you so
much for your support of this important cause and for your parents and dancers giving
back to the community. That is what they will remember long after the
competition is over!
PLEASE READ THE FINAL
REMINDERS CAREFULLY & PASS ON TO YOUR DANCERS & PARENTS:
Doors will open at 3:00 pm on Friday. Competition starts at 3:30 pm on
Auditorium Stage & 4:00 pm on Gym Stage. Doors open at 7:00 am on Saturday. Competition
starts on Auditorium Stage at 8:00 am & Gym Stage at 8:30
am. Please
don’t arrive earlier than the time the doors open.
Please make sure your parents know there is an
admission charge at the door:

65+ Kids under 3 are free
Two day passes are $12/ $10 We accept CASH,
PAYPAL, CREDIT CARDS & VENMO!
*REMIND THEM that all proceeds go the

There is NO VIDEO TAPING OR
PHOTOGRAPHY! MAKE SURE PARENTS KNOW THIS PLEASE!! DOING SO COULD
RESULT IN DISQUALIFICATION. DRC Videos will be filming the
competition and you can purchase your DanceBug videos
at their table and then stream them on your electronic devices & save them
on your own personal DanceBug account.
All solos, duos & trios will dress in the
cafeteria on Friday. Boy’s dressing room is backstage in the auditorium
stage left for both days.
Dressing rooms for studios have been assigned
and there will be a hostess at the admissions table to take you to your
dressing room when you arrive on Saturday. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THE
DANCERS ARE RESPECTFUL OF THE ROOMS THEY ARE GIVEN. Please don’t allow them to write on the boards, eat in the rooms or
disrupt things in the rooms.
Many of the rooms have new carpet so keep this in mind.
USE TWITTER to know what routine is performing
on each stage. We are going to
be TWEETING what routine is currently performing in both the
gym and the auditorium. For example: g21 would mean routine 21 in the gym or
a37 would mean routine 37 in the auditorium. All you have to do is follow WDFKP on Twitter and have the Twitter app on
your smartphone. (The app is free and available in most app stores. Make sure
you & your staff & parents sign up for a Twitter account before the
competition if you don’t already have one so you are set to go!)
All music should have been uploaded in advance. Please make sure parents & teachers
have a backup CD/flash drive/iPod/phone readily available in case there is a
problem.
Solo, duo, trio contestants
should pick up their score sheets after their awards ceremony on Friday. Studio
score sheets will be available after the final awards ceremony on Saturday. Please make sure you get them!!
It’s going to be a great competition with a
feeling of giving and sharing. Take some time to remind your dancers why this
competition is different from the rest. Their participation helps to make sure
no child goes to bed hungry. For this weekend they are dancing to help kids who
are not as fortunate as they are & that is a VERY BIG DEAL! Together we are
indeed “Dancing to Make a Difference.” I can’t thank you enough for your help,
support & friendship. I am honored to work on this project with such
amazing, kind, generous & beautiful people!!
With love and appreciation,
