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

A few reminders 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 at least one position 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 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 Lead Group Mom for the Saturday show and Concessions Sales for a Sunday show, as an example.

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 15, 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 15 and 16.  These times have been added to the Master Calendar.
   • Saturday, February 15 Arrival Time: 10:00 AM 
     • All dancers may put on first costume at the venue
     • Saturday’s Dress Rehearsal will start promptly at 10:45 AM
   • Sunday, February 16 Arrival Times: 11:00 AM
     • 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.

1. TIGHTS: The Competition Tights List has been updated for this upcoming season. Click Here to access the Shoe & Tight Buying Guide web page. EACH GROUP should review the spreadsheet to see what type and color of tights your dancer needs. Please purchase these ASAP, so you have them in hand for dress rehearsals.

• It is recommended that each dancer have at least 3 pairs of each style of tights on hand at all times as rips, runs and tears are common!
•  Please make sure that you check the correct dance group for your dancer, and also make sure you are choosing the correct color of tights to purchase.
• Other costume/tights selections are still being finalized for some groups since costumes are still being delivered. We will add other tights selections to the list as soon as they are known. We will send out another blog post when we have updates

2. HAIR & MAKEUP DAY: Weekend of Feb 1-3 (exact time TBD) at the Studio. REMINDER: This is for NEW MEMBERS only and is mandatory for BOTH mom and dancer.

3. COMPETITION MAKEUP:

• New members: Cheryl has pre-purchased competition makeup for all new members.  Makeup kits being ordered will be given to you at Hair/Makeup day and will include an eyeshadow/blush palette, lipstick & clear gloss. Your account will be billed for makeup charges.
• Returning members, We will be using the same makeup palette and red lipstick as last year with the addition of a clear gloss which has already been ordered for you ($16 will be billed to your account). Please take an honest assessment of your dancer’s make-up from last year.  Make sure they have the eyeshadow and blush palette as well as the REBEL red lipstick.  If either of these are missing, Cheryl will have a few lipsticks available to purchase or you can order a replacement palette here: Click to Order Replacement Palette

The show dates and times are: Saturday, February 15 at 4:00pm, and Sunday, February 16 at 1:00pm. 

Venue:  Duluth High School, 3737 Brock Rd NW, Duluth, GA 30096 

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.

Last season we implemented a change to the ticket purchasing process to reduce buying unused or unwanted tickets to simply meet the 10 ticket requirement per the Vibe contract.  We hope this change reduces the pressure to sell tickets to fulfill your Vibe Member Contract obligation and allows more seating options for those guests who can attend the show.  Updated 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 Tuesday, January 7 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 Wednesday, January 8 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 13, 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 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.
