  Brett bought his girlfriend tickets to the One Direction concert on September 1 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philly for her 16th birthday. She apparently is not "into" them any more, so he is looking to sell the tickets. They are in the first row of Club box 5, seats 4 and 5. They are $337.00 for the pair. I have them for sale on StubHub, but there they are $204 apiece due to fees, but I would rather sell them to someone in our little world for cost. Please email if interested.

• Save the date- very important dance out - Sunday Morning 4/26 at Desales University - for the international dance conference - people from all around the world will be in attendance. Gayanne Grossman, PT person at LVH - has asked OGQ to do a short show. This date does conflict with Four P's feis - but this dance out will be first thing - probably enough time for most to make it to the feis if they want! Also - there are a lot of good topics they are discussing there - More info to come after this weekend -- Maureen, Thursday, March 19, 10:42:18pm [1]

• For those going to the Stewartsville (Greenwich) Elementary School dance out tomorrow... -- Chery Sweet, Wednesday, March 18, 09:00:05pm [2]
  Greenwich Elementary School dismisses at 2:55pm. A large number of children are picked up and the line coming into the school can be lengthy. I suggest coming shortly after 3 (we don't have use of the room until then and the lines coming in will move quickly after 2:55). Meet in the Cafeteria; there's a door that opens directly to the cafeteria on your left before the main entrance doors in the front. Thanks!

  We are holding the event in the morning. I imagine that some of the people might not attend, but we have no contingency plans. Who would have ever thought that we would have snow on March 20th? Go figure. In any event, let's hope the weatherman is wrong. See you tomorrow. Drive safely.

  Selling Fionnuir's solo dress (formerly Abby Lefebvre's) - beautiful turquoise Gavin with neon yellow, orange and pink. As second owner Fionnuir got very little use of it - worn less than 10 times! - due to injury and outgrowing it very quickly. Probably would suit dancer 5'1" to 5'4" approx w/ average build. Please contact Val 484-225-1751 or valbeattie@yahoo.com for pics and more details if interested.

  The parade is a rain or shine event. That being said, we don't want the kids to get sick and have an awful experience marching in a cold wintery mix. Working on some plan "b" options. Does anyone have a van...that they will be willing to drive in the parade with some kids in in? Does anyone have access to a bus? (just kidding) Any ideas??? Before heading out to the parade on Sat - am - check your email.....for last minute instructions.
