The teaching staff would like to thank all the parents and dancers on a wonderful Oireachtas.

We were proud of each and everyone of you that competed this weekend. You all worked so hard in preparing for the Oireachtas and that was evident this weekend. For those who came short of your goal whether it was not getting that recall you hoped for, or not placing in the top ten, or not qualifying for the Worlds - the work for next year starts next week. Put away your disappointment, dig deep for that passion to succeed and reach that goal next year. Through hard work at every class, you can do it.

Finally, we could not be prouder of the way each and everyone of you supported the other MHoB dancers throughout the weekend. Our Senior dancers were an inspiration to the younger dancers. The MHoB family of dancers and parents were there for each other in both the good and the bad - and for that we are all very proud of you. We worked together as a team and suceeded.

Thank you all - remember there is no class this week - enjoy the break, and we will see all of you next week.

I have one extra designer wreath (#W285) and I have someone who is missing a centerpiece. (a cute little basket filled with greens, pinecones, etc.)

If you have an extra item, or are missing anything, please let me know!

I have found a few items for people, hopefully everyone's order is ok.

Hi All,

Thanks to all who participated in the Wreath fundraiser. If you were not able to pick up your order today, the remaining orders will be dropped at the EP studio tomorrow morning. All orders will be there by 11:00am (or ealier). They will be stacked outside with your order form attached.

The wreaths need to be stored outside, so it is very important they are picked up tommorrow before 1:00pm as we cannot store them in the studio. If you foresee a problem, please email me.

Special thanks to Tracy Carey for coordinating!

For the Elmhurst families, the pick up will be in the Steven's Steakhouse parking lot (corner of York and Lake).

For the EP and GP families, the wreaths will be brought to the studios either on Saturday or on Sunday (depending on when we get the truck delivery at Elmhurst).

Wreath Sale Orders - update and call to help !

Thanks to those of you that submitted your orders and to Tracy Carey for organizing the fundraiser on behalf of all of us. The order must be placed TOMORROW with our supplier.

The Booster Club planned the wreath sale to raise funds primarily towards beautiful new school team costumes that will be worn now and for years to come - whether your child is a beginner, novice or champ dancer, they likely will wear one of the team costumes in the future. The BC purchase ensures that the costumes will be there for teams now and in the future - and without the parents incurring a large upfront expense.

We had hoped for broad support within the school as many of us already purchase wreaths annually - our team members also were actively selling the wreaths. Participation has been much lower than anticipated and needed. BUT we would love to take your order TODAY. Please drop your order form at your studio TODAY - extra forms are available there - or email btcarey@comcast.net to make other arrangements.

If you typically hang a live wreath (or 2), have a fresh centerpiece or garland, this year please order from your Booster Club. If you haven't had a fresh arrangement display in the past - try it this year! And they also make nice gifts to take to your Thanksgiving dinner hostess, or grandparents, etc

Thank you for your support of YOUR present and future team dancers.

Any question, contact Tracy, your teaching staff or me.

Without the help of our parents - none of this is possible. The day was great fun for all the dancers that attended. The compliments of running a "fun" feis, and having something to do for everyone are still coming in and we will post those for all to see.

We REALLY need your help. Over the years, the Academy has been known for hosting Feiseanna that are second to none. The only way that has been possible - has been with the complete support of ALL the parents in the school.

If your child is competing in the Feis, we need you to volunteer and help make this the success it has always been. With the help from ALL of us, the Feis will run smoothly and be an event that we can all be proud of. As we have more than 230 MHoB registered dancers, we should be able to fill the remaining volunteer positions - many hands make light work. Here is information to bear in mind:

The schedule is posted at www.halloweenfeis.net so you can check to see when your dancer will be competing and work around that timeframe. You also may step away from your post during the shift to watch your child dance - just let the committee person in charge of your area know you are doing so
There are plenty of opportunities to help on Friday night with setup or on Sat afternoon/eve with teardown if you prefer not to help during the day on Saturday.
We need a good turnout for stage building on Fri afternoon and evening to get our high-quality stages completed in a reasonable timeframe. We are know for having great stages and we need to continue this tradition!
There are opportunities for dancers age 12+ to help, so please encourage your child also to assist.
All volunteers should check in at the main registration desk (where competitor numbers are picked up) so we know you have arrived for your shift.

Time is running short, and we need everyone to step up NOW and assist. Please click on the link from the Home Page and volunteer today.Thank you,

Hi there MHoB families!

I'm looking for some help getting the Christmas wreath sales brochures to all of the dance studios. I'm working full time now and can't drive them out myself! If anyone is going to the other dance studios (EP or Gaelic Park), please let me know and we'll see what we can set up. (btcarey@comcast.net)

Thanks in advance for any assistance!!!
GO MHoB!

And Good Luck to all of our dancers this weekend at the Pat Roche Feis!

It is with deep regret that I let you all know of the passing of Mike O'Hara.

Mike is the older brother of Johnny O'Hara who helped teach in Edison Park last year. Mike, along with his 7 other siblings, all took dance lessons with the Mullane Academy. Mike was one of the original Mullane dancers when the school was formed in 1985.

Mike passed away yesteday after suffering injuries due to a car accident.

Your prayers for Mike and the O'Hara family are appreciated.

Thanks

Date Posted: 11:03:43 09/30/08 Tue

Dear Parents,

Our 2nd annual Halloween Feis is swiftly approaching - our Program Book/Advertising Co-Chairs need YOUR help as below:

1. We need several volunteers across ALL studio locations to donate 1-2 hours soliciting advertising revenues from local businesses near the studios - initial contacts may have been made, but we need follow-up visits. Grab your cute dancer and hit the pavement for awhile - it's harder to say no when you are standing there.........please contact tgfrumkin@comcast.net to help and she will provide you with all the details. We do need to line up the advertising by October 7th, so time is of the essence..........

2. Advertise your own business (or your employer's) right in our program - with 2,500 readers expected (and lots of time to read and re-read that book), what a great way to generate business at great rates.

3. For those of you that want to wish your little (and big) darling, princess, ghost, pirate, goblin, witch, etc well at THE most FUN event of the feis year, consider a well-wishes ad - priced at either $10 or $20 (depending upon size), these are very inexpensive wishes that are much-loved by the dancers

Please contact Theresa Frumkin ASAP (tgfrumkin@comcast.net) to advertise, volunteer or both !
