Many parents have told me they were disappointed upon hearing that the showcase was cancelled. These parents feel like they are making a lot of sacrifices (financial, time, etc.) for their kids to participate on these competition dance teams. Their concerns are centered around the fact that they came into the dance season knowing that competing in dance is a huge commitment, and they were prepared to do whatever they had to do to help prepare their child for competition. The point of competition team is to compete, the point of competing is to do the best you absolutely can. In order to do that, you need every opportunity to showcase and practice routines. Also, many families do not have time to come to competition and sit around for hours waiting to see a couple of these routines. This showcase provides a great opportunity to see every competition number, including solos, in a short amount of time! We owe it to our kids to help prepare them as much as possible.

If you would like to see the showcase actually be put on, knowing that there is a time and possible financial commitment, then please sign this petition ASAP. The showcase would still be held on Saturday February 3, if we are successful with this. Thank you.
