DANCERS NEEDED!! Dancers are needed for several performances this summer. These events are open to all dancers.
Kerry Howard is doing a "Live Healthy" program at the Leaning Tower YMCA on Monday, July 7 from 9:30AM until noon.
She would like some dancers to help her out as she is using Irish dance as an exercise program. If you are interested in
participating you can email Kerry at: misskerryhoward@aol.com or call her cell phone--773-655-8218.
Because of the great response and feedback to our performance at Navy Pier, we have been asked to perform again in
July and August. I would like as many dancers as possible to attend one or both of these performances. It is not often
we are asked for a "double encore". The dates and performances times are as follows:
Friday, July 11 6:30PM and 8:30PM and Saturday, August 16 at 6:30PM and 8:30PM. There will be a fireworks show after
both of these performances.
Dancers are also need for a block party on Saturday, July 19 at Wilson and Austin. Tentative time is 3:00PM.
Please let me know if you are able to attend any of these performances.
Anyone who has uniforms for Kelly should get them to me no later than July 13. Her mother will be picking them up
from me on July 14.
Have a great holiday!!!
