NEW & IMPORTANT

A NOTE FROM MISS KATE M:

Tonight is CULVER'S NIGHT! Save the cooking for Thanksgiving and treat yourself to some yummy Culver's AND do good! From 4-7pm 10% of sales go towards our special needs non profit, Darby's Dancers! At the GRANDVIEW location. Thank you Culver's!!!!

Reminder, we DO have classes on MONDAY of next week, but then are closed the rest of the week for the holiday.

We are so thankful for all of you and hope that you all have a wonderful holiday. Whether that means a large gathering or a quiet day at home....we hope that it's just what you are looking forward to.

With gratitude,

~Miss Kate M

LOGOWEAR IS IN!!

If you ordered logowear, be sure to stop by the front desk to pick up your items.

Please note: Since these items could be gifts for the dancers, we will NOT hand them out to the kids unless you email us letting us know it's ok to do so...we don't want to spoil any surprises!

We can't wait to see all the new gear being worn!

** DID YOU FORGET OR MISS OUT ON ORDERING THE FIRST TIME? YOU'RE IN LUCK!!! **

Distinktive Merch Co. has reopened the store for ONE week for us. Parade sweatshirts, both crew and hoodie, are available again if you missed out.

CHRISTMAS CLEARING COUNCIL

Every year LDC work with the Christmas Clearing Council to sponsor local families in need. We have 3 families, with a total of 12 kids that we are sponsoring this year.

There are gift tags at the front desk to grab if you are interested and able to help.

• Grab a tag (or a few!)

• Shop AND wrap your gift.

• Attach your gift tag to the outside, so we know what family it is for, and bring it back to LDC by Saturday 12/6.

• We will coordinate with the families to get them their gifts before Christmas.

Thank you to those that already grabbed tags. These families will have a very merry Christmas thanks to your generosity!

COAT DRIVE

Thank you to everyone that brought in coats!! There have been LOADS of them donated and we are always so impressed with your generosity.

TOMORROW (11/20/) is the LAST day to bring them in!! So check out those closets.

LOOKING AHEAD:

THANKSGIVING BREAK (11/25-11/30)

• We DO have classes on MONDAY 11/24 ONLY next week.

  • That makes up for Labor Day when we were closed.

• We are CLOSED the rest of next week, Tuesday-Sunday.

• We hope you all have a wonderful holiday week!

WAUKESHA CHRISTMAS PARADE (12/7)

• Sunday 12/7 at 4pm. We are excited to have another BIG LDC crew dancing/walking with us!

• More details to come as we get them from the organizers!!

  • But generally we meet at the line up at the staging area between 2:30-3:00pm and the parade kicks off at 4:00.

REMINDERS:

RECITAL!!!

The board is UP and the recital website is LIVE!

If you've been here before, you know the deal :)

If you are new to us...we can't wait for your to experience the magic that is recital! You may think it's just one weekend in the spring, but there are quite a few elements and special moments throughout the year that make up this special core memory.

BOARD IS UP: Be sure to check out the poster on the slat wall in the lobby

RECITAL WEBSITE IS LIVE: We have a dedicated recital website that will house all of the information you will need. We spread it out over the course of the season, so not all is released yet, but the photos of the costumes and songs names are!

COSTUMES: Costumes are getting ordered as we speak!!! It takes up a bit of time to get them in and organized, but they will be handed out starting in February.

We appreciate you!!

At LDC we pride ourselves on the fact that we have built our awesome dance community by word of mouth. Would you mind helping us out by leaving us a 5 star review? It doesn't take long, but makes a BIG impact. Thank you!!!
