Oireachtas AZ

Hello all
Congratulations to all the dancers who attended the Oireachtas in AZ last week! I was very impressed by all the great dancing by our teams and solo dancers. We were very lucky to have 5 teams entered and all look so good. The u10 team recalled and received awards, and the u12 team recalled and placed 13th. (One judge had them 5th another had them 8th!!) Congratulations to Sophie Hurst, Sarah Silverman, and Margery Pulkkinen who all recalled and placed well in their competitions. All the solos danced well and were great representatives for our school. We had great success with the traditional set competition too. U9 21 Competitors, 9th place Johanna Flahiff
U10 37 Competitors, 9th Lindsay Showalter, 13th Mackenzie Case
U11 33 Competitors, 5th Rachel Stern, 9th Stevie Morga

Hello all
Well, we are in the final countdown to the Oireachtas!! I think we had a very successful weekend last weekend. Thanks to Ryan for coming in and giving us a final push and some great corrections. I was very impressed at the dress rehearsal at the Seattle Center also. thanks to the many parents that helped out setting up the room and getting the "theatre" ready for the dancers. I was very impressed with the teams and solos, and I am very excited to see how your hard work pays off for next weekend.
One final Sunday practice and then we are off!!
see you Sunday
