A message from an audience member/silent auction bidder

"Great Show! Having taught middle school for 37 years I have an idea of the energy/effort that goes into such a huge production. Thanks -many thanks. Our kids need more of this kind of activity. It is tragic that public schools don't get the total picture"

Rave reviews from all my friends and colleagues that attended too! Kudos for a fabulous job to all the cast and crew.

[Edit]

Date Posted: 15:13:35 02/19/07 Mon

Hi All,
We recently purchased a used solo dress that needs a little freshening up. Does any one have a cleaner who can handle solo dresses?

The dress has glitterdots, lame and some crystals. I'm concerned about the crystals coming off. The inside of the dress is lined in cotton, which is the part that needs cleaning.

Other than airing it out, is there a way to clean the dress?

Thanks.

Hey all-i know you've seen my dress...i've had it since 2002-used it until 2004-tried selling it but then decided i might try to go back to dance. anyway, obviously that didn't happen and now i am moving to san luis obispo...so i need to sell it-within the week because i am leaving friday or saturday. if anyone is interested, i am selling it for $950. I took very good care of it and it has been in the dress bag (which I am also selling) since 2004. I also have my class costume which I am trying to sell. Trying to sell that one for about $300...also in very good condition. I also have 2 pairs of soft shoes-one was used only a couple of times and one is brand new...both are size 5. Looking to sell those for $50 each. If you or anyone you know may be interested, please let me know as soon as possible. Look forward to hearing from you guys.

Lizzi Connor's white and black Dancing in Celtic solo dress is for sale. We purchased it in February, and she's only worn it 3 times, so it's practically brand new. It has a dropped waist, and a crazy zebra print lining and bloomers. it comes with a crown. We also have a black and white rhinestone tiara for sale (separately, or in addition to the dress)which matches the dress, and 'lifts' the crown. the dress will be at the studio on Sunday morning (during O practice). Phone me (408 378 7432) or e-mail (terrihygate@yahoo.com) for details on price, size etc.
