"The Golden Age " - Blackpool Dance Festival Fundraiser
Everyone is
invited to our 6th Annual Blackpool Dance Festival Fundraiser on Saturday, May 1st.
Doors will open at 7:30pm with the show starting at 8pm. From 7:30pm to 8pm there will be general dancing, wine, food and snacks, and lots fun of
with all of our friends.
This is a special
show, that will not be taped, so you don't want to miss it. We will be doing a 6 Dance Latin and Ballroom show.
If you are interested in viewing past fundraisers we have DVDs for sale for
$19.95 each (click here if
interested).
For your
additional pleasure, we have invited Steve Harrera and Sofie Elliott - National Novice Finalists, and Elijah Clayton and Hanna Shinsato - National Youth Syllabus Champions to
perform in addition to our numbers.
Blackpool Dance Festival is by far the most expensive competition of the year due to the lenth of the event - 10 days of just competition the rest travel and training. The estimated cost
for the Blackpool Dance Festival in May 2010 $6713.00. We have found a new place to stay that is saving some additional funds for acommodation 20 Pounds a night for both of us including a kitchen - and the lady is awesome.
A breakdown of our expenses for the two week trip
that includes 2 competitions leading up to the main event and 30 lessons with legendary coaches. Our fundraiser goal is
$4000.00.
DO YOU KNOW ANYONE
IN LONDON? We have a few friends that we are trying to work out a stay with,
but if you know someone in the London area that has a room available it
would greatly help, since most of our accommodation costs are in London.
Most of the studios we go to are in the Southwestern part of London -
Streatham area but we have a car and don't mind commuting for the lessons.
If you know someone that might be able to help out please let us know.
