The competition dates were listed on the 2nd page of the syllabus. Looks like the oldest PC & OC dances Saturday, the rest on Sunday. I've attached the link below. -- Dancer's mom, 04:03:08 04/18/14 Fri
This year, as they have for the last several years, the two oldest ladies champ groups, the oldest men's champ group and the two oldest prelim groups will dance on Saturday. The rest of the champs and prelims will dance on Sunday. (NT) -- Cape feis veteran, 07:18:31 04/18/14 Fri
Thank you both for your help! I could not find that syllabus anywhere! (NT) -- Google fail :-), 07:34:35 04/18/14 Fri

For the future, I find that both gilleoghan.com and grayschool.com posts links to all NE and MAR region feiseanna syllabi, schedules, competitor lists, etc. I truly appreciate how up-to-date they keep their feis pages on their websites. (NT) -- wonderful resources, 08:16:10 04/18/14 Fri

I use Feis411. It's kept much more up-to-date than either of the others, so well worth the $20/year to me. (NT) -- busy mom, 09:04:31 04/18/14 Fri

does feis 411 have results from feiseanna like Horgan? (NT) -- I'd pay for that., 09:29:05 04/18/14 Fri

I also love the Gilleoghan site and greatly appreciate the effort to keep it updated! (NT) -- great big thanks!, 09:26:42 04/18/14 Fri

The romance of Swan Lake collides with the raw energy of Riverdance when ballet dancer Kitri falls hard for all things Irish. Especially crush-turned-partner Blake. Will she tie a Celtic knot to her new passion and hang on? If you’re not following your dreams, whose dreams are you following?

Subject: Gotta say the live feed from London is interesting today. Hotel has blocked a ton of dancers/parents from entering the floor where results are to be revealed/awarded because the room is overfull. They are asking those there for the Boys results (to be given later) to leave and make room!

I'm from central Connecticut and I will be graduating in June. I will be attending the University of Rhode Island and would love to continue dancing however I'm really unfamiliar with the area.
Does anyone know what schools are around southern RI/Kingston, RI?
Any info is greatly appreciated!

My daughther started the Irish Dance Club there a few years ago. It's small, but they get practice space! (NT) -- URI mom, 20:54:48 04/15/14 Tue
I would send an email to both schools and see if there are dancers from URI that you can commute with. (NT) -- Good Luck!, 05:49:03 04/16/14 Wed
I think Goulding will be closer but with either one you will need a car or a ride as public transportation is not that comprehensive/takes a long time (NT) -- :-), 09:09:06 04/16/14 Wed
I posted a lengthy response to you on the main ID voy board with commuting distances and links to schools' websites. Check there. (NT) -- NE Mom, 12:00:52 04/16/14 Wed

Also to Maeve W and Brooke A - girls U14 -- Mom, 08:00:14 04/14/14 Mon

Subject: We were wondering why the prelim dancers have to line up next to the stage to wait to dance (sometimes for a really long time). The opens don't do that, do they? It seems like they know where they are in the rotation and go up just before it's their turn to dance. Do prelims have to stand there, or do they just not know any different because it's what they did in PW?

When my DD was in prelim and had a later rotation #, she didn't line up until it was almost time to dance. (NT) -- ;), 06:39:13 04/14/14 Mon
You don't have to stand there. You just have to not miss your rotation so if you can keep an eye on it from a distance (and remember that the one before you may also not be in line), then you can do your own thing. (NT) -- -, 07:20:18 04/14/14 Mon
Both Open and Prelim line up for the first round; the stage monitor makes certain they are all there and in proper rotation; after that, they line up when their shoes are changed for next round. Since final round in open is sets and is one at a time, they usually wait until only a few ahead of them to stand there. (NT) -- what I have seen, 07:26:44 04/14/14 Mon

My daughter lost her size 2 ghillies after dancing U12 Prizewinner at the Hansen Keohane Feis today, 4/13. She finished up her hard shoes dances and they were gone. Someone probably mistook them for their own. Please contact if you find them. Thanks

Subject: I was just reading the (old) Sheehan Gormley syllabus, and under open it says "Dancers must qualify for open championship via the method now in place for preliminary championship, i.e. three 1st place wins." So does that mean that a NE dancer would have to dance open in NE (or another 2 win region) before they'd be eligible to dance in the mid atlantic region?

Here at FeisPix the excitement is mounting as the start date approaches. For months now we have been planning and designing some innovative photo ideas. For example there will be strut mounts, embossed with a London skyline motif. This will make a cherished memento of the World Championships 2014. You can choose to have your photo printed on a border collage of iconic London scenes. Ceili teams might wish to have a group photo on a clock face, making a wonderful gift for ‘you know who’. Visit our website to see samples of our ideas. But don’t forget to drop by and see our display at our studio stall on the ground floor foyer of the West Wing entrance.
Soon after each age group has danced we will display proofs of all the action at our stall. But remember you can also see all the action and award pics on our website as early as humanly possible after the event.
We send our best wishes to all competitors. Enjoy the championships. Enjoy London and England.

Horgan -- Mom, 10:22:37 04/10/14 Thu

You could go and take your chances, but to what end? We love the old fashioned feel of Horgan feiseanna and do at least one a year, but we have never been early and often very very late. Why put that pressure on your day, especially if you can't even stay for awards? And winners aren't posted anywhere - you may never even find out how she does! (NT) -- I'd stay home., 10:51:39 04/10/14 Thu

Horgan feis is notorious for running late. They never give # of competitors so you can figure out the time easier. It looks like they have only allotted 30 minutes for some OC comps. In the past, they have run 2-3 hours behind. It also looks like they will be doing awards in auditorium...if that is where champs dance, then this will further delay all the comps. (NT) -- jmho, 11:18:05 04/10/14 Thu

Also, the contemporary set comp has only 30 minutes total allotted for both age groups. This will definately get the feis started late, since it is 1st on the schedule, if there are more than 9 dancers total competing. (NT) -- yikes!, 11:27:33 04/10/14 Thu

Do you think they are going to have more than one stage for the Prelims and Opens? It is hard to tell from the schedule they posted (NT) -- ?, 15:26:08 04/10/14 Thu

They have not had more than 1 champ stage ever. Looks like one stage on the schedule, since the comps are listed in one column.Hopefully they can move comps after the grades finish. (NT) -- sigh..., 15:40:32 04/10/14 Thu

They won't move comps because they won't have the judges. Love it or loathe, it is what it is. Best be prepared to be late you won't be angry. The best part is awards for grades, imho. They are done like champs and much more fun. Not a lot of opens attend though, just lots of folks who are trying to move up! (NT) -- hth, 19:29:24 04/10/14 Thu

Our last Horgan grades feis, (spring feis two years ago) was not done like champs. -- After kids danced, all stayed in place, judges awarded on the spot., 20:31:23 04/10/14 Thu

Lately it seems like they have an awards room and call up the winners. (NT) -- hth, 21:52:00 04/10/14 Thu

IT MAY be possible to move comps, there are 8 judges this feis. So, when the 3 grades stages finish comps can be moved...hopefully. (NT) -- fingers crossed..., 22:39:58 04/10/14 Thu

Wow. Thanks everyone. May stay home . Dd disappointed but they learn they can't have it all, right? (NT) -- OP, 19:11:48 04/10/14 Thu
Personally, if you have to be somewhere important -- in that kind of time frame..., 20:49:52 04/10/14 Thu

Also, in our experience -- no feis has ever run perfectly on time, 20:51:14 04/10/14 Thu

No way would I do this, for any feis, and especially not this feis. Love the Horgan feises but they are not known for precision timing. You go and plan to spend the rest of the day there. (NT) -- Save your gas money, 08:55:30 04/11/14 Fri

Staying at Thistle Marble Arch at Worlds. I'm having trouble figuring out distances from hotel to venue. I assumed everything would be within walking distance but a bit challenged trying to figure it out. Anyone familiar with the area?? Thanks

The tunes labeled "1X" are once-through (48-bar reel, 48-bar TJ, 40-bar SJ, 40-bar HP). The last note ends on your last step - no extra notes. There are also "2X" and "3X" tunes to work on stamina and still be at the right place in the tune and at the end. 99¢ on iTunes, Amazon, and practically everywhere else!

They added 2 additional hotels just recently and said they would add more if rooms were completely booked; I do not think the 2 new ones are on the original listing (NT) -- might have better luck with those, 12:32:42 04/09/14 Wed

Yes-Always safer to assume the the Host school has the most up to date information. Feisomatic, Gilleoghan, Feis411 and other websites get their information from northamericanfeiscommission.org when the information is posted. Sometimes due to conflicts, a feis has to relocate. This information is never updated on the NAFC website and rarely trickles down. These sites are provided as a convenience and many have a disclaimer that says to check the feis website for the latest information. (NT) -- hth, 15:49:59 04/09/14 Wed

They can be nice and ley you "carry-on", some times the flight crew will "stash and store " if for you, if all else fails fold it and make it work, if she has to "wear" it on the plane it is no the worst case. Most , when they realise what it is for will help you. (NT) -- good luck, 20:44:41 04/08/14 Tue

Never, ever check itin (NT) -- better to be on the safe side, 20:45:39 04/08/14 Tue

Dd's standard flight outfit is a cami with yoga pants and a zip-up hoodie. That way if she is ever prevented from boarding with the dress in bag, she can slip it on over the cami and pants and board the plane. If that happened she would then slip the dress off, put it into the clear fold-up suit bag we always carry for this reason, and either fold it in 3rds and slide under seat or lay flat on top of everyone else's carryons in the overhead bins.

Um, what? (NT) -- ?, 19:39:23 04/09/14 Wed

I've heard United is being strict. I would suggest getting a cheap foldable garment bag that can be folded up (empty of course) in their size checker. if they force you to check the size, then just wear the dress and fold the garment bag into the sizer. Once on the plane, put the dress back in your garment bag and up in the overhead. Not idea, but at least you'll have a dress bag. i wouldn't chance the helen doyle bag (NT) -- mom, 07:44:46 04/10/14 Thu

Never mind....it was really easy to look up and found it: From CLRGCostume Rules (4.4 in CLRG Rule Book) 4.4.9. All forms of dance school identification, be it by sign, shape, colour-piece, logo or symbol be banned from all solo costumes worn by any competitor in any competition. AMENDMENT: 'Initials' and 'name' will be added to this rule, effective January 1, 2015" So not in effect yet! (NT) -- foggy, 11:51:41 04/07/14 Mon

Note that it says "dance school identification", not dancer identification. So I believe dancers can still have their names or initials, but nothing that identifies which school they are from. (NT) -- my understanding, 12:52:12 04/07/14 Mon

The full statement reads (after the word amendment) that dancer names and initials are banned in January 2015. (NT) -- ~Kris, 07:41:53 04/08/14 Tue

Rule does not go into effect ti 2015. Dresses are still being made with names. (NT) -- from CLG site., 11:52:35 04/07/14 Mon
I saw a (possibly school dress) with the school name on the back at the Lenihan feis this weekend (NT) -- Dancer, 16:37:18 04/07/14 Mon

If you read the rule, it says this can't appear on solo dresses. It's fine to have a school name or logo on a school dress. (NT) -- that's allowed, 17:13:51 04/07/14 Mon

Even if worn in a solo competition? (NT) -- ?, 18:19:09 04/07/14 Mon

Yes, dancers are always allowed to wear school dresses in solos, even if school initials or names are on dress; most choose not to, but when waiting for a new dress and current one has sold, sometimes school dress is only choice (NT) -- that's our situation now, 05:55:29 04/08/14 Tue

A school costume identifies the school regardless of names or initials. (NT) -- Makes sense to allow on school costumes, 07:50:35 04/08/14 Tue

Great Feis! Knowing we were last comp of day in Aux gym made me groan, but it actually started a bit earlier than I had estimated and judges only took a very quick break beforehand.

Date Posted: 10:32:54 04/03/14 Thu

Hi. Someone gave me a rule of thumb to estimate how long a competition will take -- for example, for gray feis which says when dancing will start (8.30) and you are supposed to figure out on your own when to get there for the fourth or fifth competition after that. Someone said 1 minute x each dancer in the prior competitions x each dance, or something like that...that's a lot of work to do to read the entry list, etc. but if I have to do it I want to do it right!

The only times on the schedule are in the gym and those are the start times for various categories- 8:30 start for prelim, 11:00 for prizewinner etc. (NT) -- Feis Committee, 07:33:17 04/02/14 Wed

Yes, 8:30 is when the entire Feis starts, including first competition in the auditorium. (NT) -- Feis Committee, 12:29:03 04/02/14 Wed

Are the start times for the categories like Prizewinner and novice not before times? (NT) -- Confused, 20:22:47 04/02/14 Wed

No, they are start times. The only thing that says "not before" are the traditional sets in the gym. (NT) -- Feis Committee, 21:01:23 04/02/14 Wed

Silly question... -- Confused mom, 20:27:04 04/01/14 Tue

the open competition would consist of three rounds, light shoe, hard shoe and set - when you hit the enter the feis button, there is a pull down menu where you choose the dances.. (NT) -- NE mom, 06:19:23 04/02/14 Wed

the other thing is that if you are new to Open, or new to FeisWeb, the dancer's information has to be updated to reflect that they are actually in Open Championships, then when you enter a feis, the appropriate dance choices for your dance level will be available to you to choose from...hope that helps. (NT) -- NE Mom, 06:23:52 04/02/14 Wed

The first ones listed are trad sets because younger dancers do a trad set for their set dance; scroll down and you will see the rest of the selection to choose from (NT) -- hth, 07:33:43 04/02/14 Wed

Just a few things I forgot to mention-
Champions up to and including age 14 will dance 3 at a time in the hard shoe round.
The grades will be left up to the judges. If they think the stages are large enough, they will dance 3 at a time.
We may possibly move competitions later in the day if stages become available and we tend to run very quickly, so please arrive a bit earlier than you may think you need to.

Some notes about the Feis- competitor numbers will all be emailed, unless you owe a balance. If you owe, you can pay at the entry desk and pick up your number there. We will not be posting a competitor list.
Notes about the schedule- competitions with a / between them (for example, 424/444) are combined. "Run concurrently" means we will run the hard shoe rounds of both competitions, then the soft shoe rounds. Those are still separate competitions.
Looking forward to a great feis Sunday!

Due to some late changes in registrations and a resulting increase in numbers, a few of the merged novice competitions have been "un-merged." They will be run concurrently but judged separately from the competition with which they were previously merged. Times (& stages) do not change.

Here is the most recent version of the schedule reflecting this small change:

Based on our experience, I would think not.

Not sure how that happened and why feisweb would say open and take entries, but it must have capped out somehow as feisweb took the entry. (NT) -- --, 07:50:25 03/31/14 Mon

being one of the dancers who did well at this feis i find it embarrassing that mothers would come on here just to "gossip" about results. its disheartening that we have to worry about what mom is going to dissapprove of our placement or cry controversey. we are the ones that work hard to achieve the place we get. not you.

I am not crying on the board but I do not have any kids competing in these grades but you do not have to be an expert to watch if I can see it that is bad and it is not one feis it is at all feises.

All are certified and accredited judges. It is a subjective activity. Seems as though some got their feathers ruffled, though, on both sides. -- interesting, 05:17:23 03/31/14 Mon

True enough, although most "certified" professions insist on recertification courses to ensure a high level of knowledge and professionalism. I think this is why from time to time there is outrage, the customers (i.e. parents and dancers) feel ripped off by a perception of poor judging. Honestly, this is why people were unhappy with the failure of this feis to post an adjudicator list, people do not want to spend their hard earned money when they know in advance how it will shake out.

Amen Sister!! Why so secretive? (NT) -- dd, 15:18:51 03/31/14 Mon

Agreed! Sometimes you get the marks and 1or2 judges write nothing. frustrating for the dancer because as much as this is the job of the teacher to correct a dancers faults, a feis offers the opportunity for fresh eyes to look at your dancer and it helps to take feedback to their teacher. Sometimes the judge sees something different. Yes, These judges should have to be re-certified. I think that is only fair. Also, switch them up please, give us some variety instead of the same lineup (NT) -- Judges, dancers give you a job so do it!, 19:41:28 04/05/14 Sat

Looking for a reliable seamstress that can work with a new Elevation dress to be let out a bit. Preferably South of Boston. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you and Good Luck to all dancers at Forbes today

The competition dates were listed on the 2nd page of the syllabus. Looks like the oldest PC & OC dances Saturday, the rest on Sunday. I've attached the link below. -- Dancer's mom, 04:03:08 04/18/14 Fri This year, as they have for the last several years, the two oldest ladies champ groups, the oldest men's champ group and the two oldest prelim groups will dance on Saturday. The rest of the champs and prelims will dance on Sunday. (NT) -- Cape feis veteran, 07:18:31 04/18/14 Fri Thank you both for your help! I could not find that syllabus anywhere!

(NT) -- wonderful resources, 08:16:10 04/18/14 Fri I use Feis411. It's kept much more up-to-date than either of the others, so well worth the $20/year to me.

Subject: We were wondering why the prelim dancers have to line up next to the stage to wait to dance (sometimes for a really long time). The opens don't do that, do they? It seems like they know where they are in the rotation and go up just before it's their turn to dance. Do prelims have to stand there, or do they just not know any different because it's what they did in PW?

When my DD was in prelim and had a later rotation #, she didn't line up until it was almost time to dance. (NT) -- ;), 06:39:13 04/14/14 Mon You don't have to stand there. You just have to not miss your rotation so if you can keep an eye on it from a distance (and remember that the one before you may also not be in line), then you can do your own thing. (NT) -- -, 07:20:18 04/14/14 Mon Both Open and Prelim line up for the first round; the stage monitor makes certain they are all there and in proper rotation; after that, they line up when their shoes are changed for next round.
