Get excited!! Showcase 2026 Dancer Gifts and Shout-Outs are now available for pre-sale!!  Click here for details on how to purchase.

The Vibe’s Showcase Committee has a long list of volunteer positions to be filled for the 2 days of our shows.

A few notes about the Signup Genius:

• Signup Genius has been pre-populated with all Showcase Chair and core committee positions (ie..decorations, lead room moms etc).
• Every Vibe family is obligated to volunteer during Showcase.   We have MANY positions to fill in order to ensure Showcase goes off “without a hitch!”  This is the best time of the year to earn your hours towards the 12 hours required from each dancer family (20 hours for families with two or more dancers). Please note that many of  these volunteer roles only require up to 1 hour of your time, so you will likely want to sign up for multiple volunteer positions across both days.    
• Please be aware of any time conflicts when signing up for multiple roles. For instance, you can not be a Backstage Lead Group Mom and Concessions Sales for the same show as you would be needed in both roles at the same time. However, you could easily be a Backstage Lead Group Mom for the Saturday show and Concessions Sales for a Sunday show, as an example.

The Showcase Detailed Schedule is #4 on the list.

A few important notes about Showcase:

1. Only registered volunteers assisting with backstage duties and Lead Group Moms for each group are allowed backstage during Dress Rehearsal. Lead Group Moms for Saturday, February 21, will assist during Dress Rehearsal AND Show #1. If you are registered for other volunteer positions throughout the weekend, please note your arrival times on the Sign-up Genius (link above).
2. Dancer Arrival Times on both days of Showcase. Please arrive promptly on February 21 and 22.  These times have been added to the Master Calendar.
   • Saturday, February 21 Arrival Time: 10:00 AM (hair and makeup done)
     • All dancers may put on first costume at the venue
     • Saturday’s Dress Rehearsal will start promptly at 10:45 AM
   • Sunday, February 22 Arrival Times: 12:30 PM
     • The earlier arrival time this year allows preparation time for all Showcase Chairs and Volunteers before the doors open for our guests.  This also provides our dancers time to stretch and warm-up before taking the stage.
     • All dancers should put on their first costume at the venue.
3. All dancers must arrive with competition hair and make-up completed.

In addition, you can access the Volunteer Hours Tracking Form on the Member Information Page at any time throughout the season to log your volunteer hours.

We appreciate your cooperation and support to maintain a fun, yet safe environment for our dancer, volunteers, and guests at Showcase! If you have any questions on volunteer positions, feel free to email us at footnotesdanceblog@gmail.com.

Please everyone take a minute to review the rules for signing your dancer up for a private lesson. We are working to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity. It takes a lot of time and effort to continue to make sure everyone is following the same procedures.

Cheryl has updated the Private Lesson Signup Genius. Click here to access the Signup Genius. Everyone must wait until they receive the email before signing up.

Make sure that you note on the Signup Genius whether you are signing up for your dancer’s solo, duo, or trio rehearsal.   Please make sure that only 1 mom or dancer signs up for a given slot for a duo or trio.

You may only sign up for one slot each time new dates are posted. After 3 days, if there are still spots open, dancers who do not have a solo/duo/trio and would just like a private lesson for technique are eligible to book. These dancers should be prepared to come to their private lesson with an agenda of what they want to work on. 

Dancers, please remember the following:

• Please bring your music to the private lesson.
• Please bring payment (Note: fee increase to $45 for a 30 minute session for both Madison & Cheryl) at the start of each rehearsal.  There is no option to have this charge added to your FootNotes account.  All dancers must pay the instructor directly by either check, Venmo, or cash.
• If your dancer is unable to attend your booked rehearsal session, you must notify FootNotes at footnotesdance@comcast.net, at least 24 hours ahead of your scheduled time.   If you ‘miss’/forget a rehearsal that you have signed up for, you are still responsible for the payment to the instructor.
• As always, dancers are always free to book an empty room to practice on their own.

Studio Booking Process

We will be using Calendly to book rooms for practices and/or to log your required rehearsals for solo, duo or trios. Click here to access the FootNotes booking page on Calendly.

• Solos, duos or trios must log 1 hour each month in the studio on your own. 
• These bookings are for rehearsing/practicing, not playtime. 
• These bookings are dancers only. No parents are allowed in the studios unless the dancer is under the age of 11. 
• Dancers are not allowed to share the room with any other dancer while logging your required rehearsal time (except in a duo or trio). It is on your own. 
• Dancers 5th grade or younger are not allowed to share the room with other dancers at any time. You may have a parent present if needed. 
• Bookings are done in 15 minute time slots. You may book for up to 2 slots a day. We will see how this goes before placing any other restrictions. 
• You will get a confirmation email once the booking is confirmed.
• You will be charged at the end of each month with a fee of $5.00 per 15 minute slot.

Showcase Ticket Sales Information

Tickets are $25 online sales, via our ticketing website, and $30 per ticket on the day of the show (to be sold at the venue).

Each Vibe family is required to sell, purchase or donate at least 10 tickets or $250 to Showcase (between the 2 shows) per Vibe Member Contract. Remember to place your dancer’s name into the “Dancer’s Name” field during the Checkout process (at the time of purchase) since we are tracking # of tickets sold by dancer family. Tickets purchased for a dancer who has already met the 10 ticket requirement cannot be transferred to another dancer who has not yet met the 10 ticket obligation.  

We ask that you please refrain from buying unused or unwanted tickets to simply meet the 10 ticket requirement per the Vibe Member Contract to allow for more seating options for guests who can attend the show.  Ticket purchase process:

1. • Please purchase the exact number of tickets for your guests who have committed to attending the show.
   • Please do NOT purchase tickets if you have not received commitment from guests to attend a show only to meet your 10 ticket commitment.
   • If your 10 ticket obligation or donation amount is not met after online ticket sales close to the public, you will be invoiced for the remaining balance payable through Square or by  check (payable to the Vibe Performance Company).  

Below are details about the timing of Ticket Sales:

• Showcase Tickets will go on pre-sale via our online ticketing website to Parents of Seniors on Wednesday, January 21 at/around 9am.  Parents of Seniors will be allowed to purchase up to 20 tickets for both shows at this time.  Once ticketing goes on sale for other Vibe members the next day, you may purchase more tickets at that time.  Please be on the lookout for an email from the Vibe GMAIL account (not a web post) with Ticket Sales information on Tuesday.
• Showcase Tickets will go on pre-sale via our online ticketing website to all other Vibe members only on Thursday, January 22 at/around 9am.  Please be on the lookout for an email from the Vibe GMAIL account (not a web post) with Ticket Sales information on Wednesday.    
• On Monday, January 26, Showcase details will be posted to our website as a web page and web post for general public ticket purchases.

**NEW Vibe Donation Opportunity Information (a great way to meet your 10 ticket contract requirement):

Please share the ticket purchase link you receive with friends and family that are unable to attend the show, but wish to support their favorite dancer, that they have the option to make a small donation to Vibe Performance Company in lieu of a ticket purchase.  When using the link to purchase tickets, there is a donation tab at the top (see snapshot below).  Please have the donor fill in your dancers name in the “dancer’s name” field. 

Here is example wording that one of our Elite members, Imani Reid, shared with her friends and family last year and generated over $900 in donations!

Hello Family, It’s that time of year again.  It’s my dance studio’s annual Showcase dance fundraiser.  While I know most of you reside out of town and won’t be able to attend, may you please consider making a donation.  Every little bit helps!  Please see the link below, and as always thanks for the continued love and support.  

Below are important notes about Day of Show (to explain to your guests when inviting them): 

• There will be a short intermission in each show, where concessions will be sold.
• We are offering 2 Dancer Gift options as well as flowers this year. They will be sold pre-sale and at the venue, while quantities last. There will be a separate web post next week explaining the dancer gift options and how to purchase.

If you have any questions please reach out to our Showcase Chairs, Amy Smith or Elisa Bobbitt.
