Cheryl has updated the Solo, Duo, Trio Signup Genius with new dates for next week. Click here to access the Signup Genius.

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 a week, you may check again and sign up for one more open slot.  

Dancers, please remember the following:

• Please bring your music to the private lesson.
• Please bring payment ($35 for a 30 minute session with Cheryl or Madison) 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.

The Master Calendar has been updated with several dates and times. Please make sure you keep your dancer’s schedule updated.

We have published details on Showcase 2022 Dancer Gifts and Shout-Outs.  Click here for details on how to purchase.

We have pulled together a web page dedicated to our business and family sponsors for this dance season.  Click here to access the web page.  A link to each sponsor’s website is included on the web page.  We are so grateful for all of the support from these businesses this year!  Please patronize each of these businesses whenever possible, and thank them for their support of our dance team!  And Thank You to our Family Sponsors for your donation to this year’s dance season!

AND, we want to thank our AMAZING Business Partner Chair and her Committee for their hard work this year in gaining the support of this sponsor list!   You ladies ROCKED IT!  Thank you to Gloria Mattei-Pacheco as Business Partner/Sponsor Chair, along with Denise Deitchman, Heather Biscan, Heather Cannon, Jeanine Blanco, Kerry Higgins, Rebecca Knezevich and Sarah Levin.

And, a HUGE THANK YOU to Maya Frank for creating the artwork for our sponsors for the Showcase Program and social media.   

For returning members who requested Yofi make-up (Eyeshadow, Blush, Lipstick)…they are still having serious supply issues. At this point, Cheryl does not know when the make-up may arrive. So, we need to come up with a “plan B.” If you have make-up that you can use from last year, she recommends you continue to use that this year. However, if you do not, she wants you to purchase similar shades at the drug store. She says you can choose the blush and eyeshadow that is close to the color of the Yofi options. She will find a similar lipstick color, and we will communicate that information in the next few days.

Earrings (if you purchased them) are on order and will arrive shortly.

Nationals Rehearsals will be set to start Thursday, June 16 through Thursday, June 23. Detailed dates and times for each group will be published as we get closer to these dates.

Raise the Barre has been set for the week of July 25 through July 29.  

Dates where Cheryl is confident required dance events will NOT be scheduled include the following weeks:

• Week of June 6 – 12
• June 13 – 15

• Week of July 18 – 24

The Vibe’s Showcase Committee has a long list of volunteer positions to be filled for the 2 days of our shows.  Please click here to access the list of all volunteer positions for our Vibe 2022 Dance Showcase.    

A couple of reminders about the Signup Genius:  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 dancers).

Please note that many of  these volunteer roles only require up to 1 hour of your time (as noted in the Signup Genius description of the position), 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.  If you have any questions on volunteer positions, feel free to email us at footnotesdanceblog@gmail.com.
