Summer Slam Dance Camp In Idaho!!!

Dance camp in Idaho is this week! I am so excited! Please remember it is very hard work and very exhausting and intense, but if you try your hardest you will learn sooo much! Please go with a positive hardworking attitude!
Just a few things to reiterate myself from all the other notes:
***Don't Forget Dance waivers! They will not let you dance if you do not have one. Print these out on www.danceamericausa.com go to summer slam camp and click on the link for the waiver!
*Meet at ultimate Dance for Caravan on Wednesday Aug 3rd at 12:30 (Please eat lunch before we meet)
Everyone should have their own rides already I assume. If you are not planning on meeting us and following us at 12:30 Please call Misty so that we are not waiting for you!!
*Bring white tank or spagetti strap tops and black bottoms.......and any other dance attire you wish.
*Bring Proper Dance shoes for genre including sneaker shoes. The Genres are Jazz, Lyrical, Hip hop and Technique. So I would be sure to have at the least your Jazz/gore shoes and sneaker shoes. Also be sure to bring stuff to put your hair back! Oh, and 8 and under they want you to bring some kind of boots for one of the dances. If you dont have any that is ok!
*Secret Sister Gifts-Bring 3 small gifts to exchange for secret sister gifts please do not spend a lot. These are for the dancers. Also, it is optional for the adults if you want to join in the fun!
* I have tops for each of the days at camp. We want everyone from UDE looking the same! I will be in the office Monday from 11-1 if you want to come pick yours up ahead of time!
See you soon!
