CRG Information -- linda dolan, 12:19:37 02/26/13 Tue [4]
Hi Guys I would like to sincerely thank you all for the questions and comments posted and for the interested you have expressed in CRG and upcoming events. But just to let you know I am only new to the message board and to be honest I am not really sure how it all works, I will do my best to reply and keep you all updated.
C.R.G. is a small organisation that runs all dance competitions on an open platform basis. Our events are well organised and have a lovely friendly atmosphere where dancers and parents alike make friends for life. What is different about CRG is that we aim to encourage Irish Dancers in all grades to take part in Feisanna’s we put dancers first and we ensure that every dancer at every feis will go home with medals and trophies.
The venue for the UK Essex feis in The Civic Hall, Black shots Lane, Grays, Essex RM16 2JU event being hosted by Marie Majko and Sarah Beard.
Our main event of the year is the C.R.G. All Irelands, the programme will cater for dancers from A grade through to Open. I know for some it may be strange but at this time we do not run qualifying Feiseanna’s and to be honest not sure if we ever will, I think it would be very sad for a dancer competiting at every feis that loves dancing and misses out on taking part in the main event of the year because they did not qualify (ah that would be very disheartening)....
We have run charity dance competitions in the past for The Marie Keating Foundation and Our Lady’s Hospital for sick Children raising nearly €40,000 our event this year DANCE FOR LIFE is in memory of my younger sister Cathy who lost her life to cancer 6 months ago leaving us all heartbroken. You can enter free all you need do it take an official card and get sponsorship, we plan of having a real fun day and every penny raised will be split equally between the Irish Cancer Society and Our Lady’s Hospice Cancer Care.
As you can see we have listed the CRG Feis Calendar for 2013 we invite you to come along and take part in any of these events, if you would like information in relation to any of these events, feis Syllabus or C.R.G. rules please feel free to email me Linda Dolan ( familydolan@eircom.net ) I will gladly send them on.
I hope I have answered your questions and more....
YOURS IN DANCING

- New Blog/Website on Irish Dancing (Open Platform-Focused) -- Ashley Irish Dances, 09:19:37 02/25/13 Mon [2]
Hello, everyone! I've recently started writing a personal Irish dance blog at AshleyIrishDances.com, which will have a wellness, fitness and open platform focus. (Usually North American OP due to it being where I live.) I'm hoping to have new posts up every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 10 AM US Central (GMT -6).
Here are the first two OP-focused articles.
A Short History of Open Platform & Independent Irish Dancing in North America
http://ashleyirishdances.com/2013/02/open-platform-irish-dance-history/
(I mostly go on personal experience, books I've read, and discussions with other people who've studied this, and I try very hard to be fair and get things correct. If you think I've gotten something wrong, please leave a comment on the blog or email me at ashley@triallta.org so we can chat about it. Thanks!)
The Benefits of Open Platform Irish Dancing
http://ashleyirishdances.com/2013/02/open-platform-irish-dance-benefits/
OP TOPICS COMING UP:
The Perils of Being an Open Platform Irish Dance Teacher (dun dun dun!), and Why I Joined NAIDF.

- Have you seen this dress? -- D, 10:28:01 02/19/13 Tue [1]
This was my first solo, made in 2004. I've always wondered what happened to it and if the owners are willing to sell, I'd love to have it back just as a keepsake. I sold this dress to someone in the New England region at a CLRG school so I'm thinking it may have stayed in the area, if not necessarily within CLRG. Please contact me at danistillman AT yahoo DOT com if you have any info!
