Guess what?! We're working on fair stuff all week! :) We'll run all the Tuesday dances on Tuesday and all the Thursday dances on Thursday. We have exactly the same group doing the shows Sunday and Monday so I'll figure out which songs we're doing and will post that. (Now listed below!) Also remember we have a mini show Thursday afternoon for those who are available.

I know we're swamped with our fair shows, but please remember that we have lots of other stuff coming up too! Spares and Pairs on 9/3, IGH Days on 9/6, Lakeville Arts Fest on 9/21, Vision Walk on 9/28, and Sample Night Live on 10/1!

Thanks everyone for all your hard work and dedication and I'll see you soon! :D

- Tammy

OK here is (I hope) our song list for the first two state fair shows. Please let me know what you think, and also if you need to be added (or taken out) of any of these dances. (I haven't intentionally taken anyone out of any dances - so you need to tell me what I've forgotten!) Thanks! :)

From this point out it's all State Fair, all the time! We have three more practices before our first two state fair days. This Tuesday we will run all the Tuesday dances, and this Thursday we will run all the Thursday dances. Please be sure to attend both nights if you plan to dance songs in both "categories". Next week Tuesday I plan to run both shows - so everyone should be there too.

Here is who signed up for these shows. If this is wrong, please let me know ASAP.

August 21 @ 7 PM: Brook, Cindy, Jess, Judy, Karen, Mackenzie, Patty, and Shelley.
August 23 @ 5:30 PM: Brook, Cindy, Jess, Jillian, Judy, Shelley, and Laura.

Each show is 45 minutes each and we will have tickets for each of you to get into the fair. On the 21st we'll wear our red shirts and on the 23rd we'll wear pink. Black capris and white shoes for both. Please bring your Grassy Creek skirts and bike shorts too! :)

As always, let me know if you have questions, and I'll see you soon!

WRC Moment of the Week: "GOBBLE GOBBLE!" (For those who missed it, this was Cindy, in Rosine, sounding very much like an evil turkey!)

- Tammy

This Tuesday we'll be dancing out National Night Out before normal practice. Please arrive at 6:30 wearing your pink shirts and capris. The address of the party (right by my parents' house) is: 3100 Forest Crest Drive. We'll dance for a bit, grab pizza, and then head off to practice. Please comment below if you plan to attend so we're sure to have enough pizza! (And dancers!)

On Thursday we'll review all of our routines - with a special focus on Hit Me and Magic Carpet Ride!

WRC Moment of the Week: my left flip flop, Jillian's nose, and Ashley's shirt. Who's in the bucket? (I *heart* road trips!) :)

TTFN!

- Tammy

So - I read the audition notice a little wrong and we have to be there 30 minutes early. Tuesday night please arrive at the Fair Grounds at 5:30 for our 6 PM audition.

And yes, we will have practice as normal. We'll be learning Country Roads this week!

Thursday night - no practice as our audition is at 7 PM.

For Grassy Creek - please wear your plain colored t-shirts, new skirts with black bike shorts under them and nude colored nylons. White polished shoes, and no socks.

If you have any questions, just let me know! TTFN! :)

- Tammy

P.S. WRC Moment of the Week: clogging really DOES pay! $20! Just ask Laura! ;)

Thanks! TTFN!
