Greetings friend,
Football season is
winding down for some and gearing up for play-offs
for others. Many of you will be looking ahead for
new routines for play-offs, pep rallies, contests
and spring shows. You can resource some quick
material through our inventory of over 200
routines on video at our web site. Delivery is
usually 10 days or less.
Don't forget that One
Day Dance Workshops are just around the
corner. They can give your team that added spark
to carry them over into the new year. Learn high
impact new routines, build on technique and
audition for Miss High Kick.
We just visited with the
Kilgore Rangerettes this past weekend at their
homecoming. Mark your calendars now for not one,
but two: Gussie Nell Davis Dance Classic's held
February 1st (Junior teams and Sr. Private teams)
and February 22nd (high school teams). Each team
will have a Rangerette as their personal escort
for the day and all teams will see the famous
Rangerette finale' number from Revels on stage in
Dodson Auditorium at the Awards Ceremony. Visit
our 2003 contest site
for more information on these and other contests.
Here are some thoughts for the day on
Communication:
“Learn to express, not impress.” -- Jim Rohn
“If you can stand up and speak eloquently with
confidence, or at least stagger to your feet and
say anything at all you will be head and shoulders
above your competition.” -– Patricia Fripp
“Accept complete responsibility both for
understanding and for being understood.” -– Brian
Tracy
“Communication is really all anyone ever gets paid
for ultimately ... and if you cannot effectively
communicate ... you will PAY ... not get paid...”
-– Doug Firebaugh
If you are ever in need of motivational reference
material, don't forget to visit our web site where
you can connect to The Line Online and visit the
Archives for
the "Weekly Message" and have the chance to
resource over 150 past messages with thoughts for
the week as well as inspirational passages.
Since our industry is comprised of so many women,
I though the passage below was appropriate for
this week. Make sure to pass a compliment on to a
friend or woman that has influenced you in a
positive way this week.
Have a wonderful week, and, as always, please keep
in touch.
