Weekly Letters
Greetings
everyone,
Thanks to many of you who have already
pre-registered
online for contest. Because
of this, our 2001 contests look to increase by as much as 50% in some
locations! We are delighted
that our Nationals will also be Internationals as well by having teams
from Great Britain, South Africa and Australia!
We will also be inviting college dance teams to
compete for the first time and will feature the top 3 college teams in
each division at our awards ceremony.
For more information about Nationals as well as our other contests,
visit our web site. If you are on or coach a college team, we would like to note you on
our e-mail list as a college group .
Please e-mail a response to let us know that you are with a college
team.
We mailed The Line this past week (don’t forget
The Line Online)
and the 2001 Contest Handbooks were mailed today.
If you have not received one by Monday and plan to attend our
contests, please e-mail
us with your mailing address and we will mail one
to you by Monday.
For those who are starting a new dance/drill team
program or want to freshen up the old one, visit our Educational Support
Page for printable information.
Thought for the day...
“Learning is the beginning of wealth. Learning is
the
beginning of health.
Learning is the beginning of
spirituality.
Searching and learning is where the miracle
process all begins.” Jim Rohn
