Now is the time to add the last finishing touches to your dancing before tryouts on Saturday. If you are new you do not need to worry about tryouts. They are only for those who have been on the team for at least a semester. If you are new this is our way of sending information out to the team weekly so you can get comfortable with the schedule. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Special Announcements for Everyone:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Tryouts!!!:<\/strong>\u00a0Tryouts will be held on\u00a0<mark>September 17th from 1-4 pm in the CCRB<\/mark>.\u00a0<strong>If you are trying out dues are due on Sept 14th<\/strong>, unless prior accommodations are made with Jason and the Board. Please be at tryouts starting at 1:30 at the latest so you have time to warm up and change. We have the space starting at 1 so you can arrive early and practice in your costumes. Please fill out <a href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/u3XvW3ChzU9Jw5oPA\">this form<\/a> if you are trying out. If you are new, don\u2019t worry about tryouts this semester but if you have questions reach out to the board and we can answer any you may have.<\/li><li><strong>Showcases<\/strong>: Oh yeah it&#8217;s that time of year again. <strong><mark style=\"background-color:#f78da7\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Showcases will be happening on Sept 15th, 22nd, and 29th at our newcomer lessons which are from 9-11 pm at the CCRB.<\/mark><\/strong> All returners are welcome to do a showcase and show our newcomers what dancing is all about!
