SHOWCASE DETAILED SCHEDULE

The Showcase Chairs will host a Showcase Informational Meeting only for new members of Vibe this year.  This meeting will occur during the hair and make-up tutorial session at the studio on Sunday, February 4th.  In lieu of the mandatory Vibe Parent Meeting that is typically held prior to Showcase, we kindly ask that you please read the attached document to review important details about Showcase, including venue details, drop-off and pick-up instructions, timeline, etc.   Click here to access the 2024 Showcase Member Information Page.  This page has all the links to all things Showcase! The Showcase Detailed Schedule is #4 on the list.

SHOWCASE VOLUNTEER SIGNUP

Thank you to those members that have already signed up for multiple positions on our Showcase 2024 Signup Genius!  Several key/”must fill” positions, particularly Concessions Sales, are still open and need volunteers. Most of these open positions take place before the show or during intermission and require less than an hour of your time. We need your help to get these open positions filled.  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 click here to access the Vibe 2024 Dance Showcase Signup Genius.    

Reminders from the initial post about the Signup Genius:

1.  Please note that many of  these volunteer roles only require up to an hour of your time, so you may sign up for multiple volunteer positions across both shows.    
2. Please be conscious of any time conflicts when signing up for multiple roles.  If you have any questions on volunteer positions, feel free to email us at footnotesdanceblog@gmail.com.

It truly takes a village and we appreciate the cooperation and support of each of our dance families pulling together to bring Showcase to life!  If you have any questions regarding Showcase 2024, please reach out to Amy Smith or Elisa Bobbitt.

Get excited!! Showcase 2024 Dancer Gifts and Shout-Outs are now available for pre-sale!!  Click here for details on how to purchase.

We have several Master Calendar Updates to share with you for February.  Please review the following updates to the Master Calendar.  **REMINDER:  All rehearsals are mandatory from this point forward. There will be rehearsals every weekend so please keep weekends open…just because there isn’t something currently scheduled on the calendar do not assume it is an open weekend.

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 Vibe 2024 Dance Showcase Signup Genius.    

A couple of 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.

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.

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 17, 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 17 and 18.  These times have been added to the Master Calendar.
   • Saturday, February 17 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 18 Arrival Times: 11:45 AM
     • Elite/Premier Jazz Line (Proud Mary) and Prodigy Contemporary (By The Wings) must arrive at the venue in their first dance costume!  All other dancers may put on their first costume at the venue.
3. All dancers must arrive with competition hair and make-up completed.

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.
