- Non-Refundable Registration is Not Okay -- No name, 13:42:19 10/10/18 Wed (NoHost/152.228.136.136)
I am really frustrated that all the feis registrations are non-refundable. There really should be some sort of policy that refunds the money for certain reasons. I have paid for feis that we could not attend due to my dancer being sick, and due to a death in the immediate family.

Would the organizers consider letting the champ comps that had to dance on stage 2 first day getting to dance on stage 1 the second day and vice versa? Last year the champ stage in the main arena had some issues with the music from grades bleeding over as well as being quite slippery. Thank you. Looking forward to a great weekend

Hello,
In preparation for O and entering OC level dancing as well we are
looking into recomondation for a self tanner lotion/mousse. So far we have used just banana boat brand which worked great but now looking into something new, preferably natural or organic. Looking for nice dark color that will NOT turn orange.
Also, since we are not into tanning, we are looking for a way to do beatiful and heavy stage make up. I wanted to ask, would some dark foundation do the job? (Of course along with heavy eye make up, bronzer, blush, etc). Any recommendation?
Thank you in advance.
Thank you.

- Comp timing for Pat Roche Feis what time is 719? are comps combined? -- No name (out of region attendee), 19:43:03 09/27/18 Thu (108-67-209-78.lightspeed.gnvlsc.sbcglobal.net/108.67.209.78)
I'm trying to figure out the comp time. I see comps won;t start until after teams and then some are small. Do they combine the small ones? Are there many no shows?

Hi everyone,
New to region so I apologize for questions if they have been asked before. Child in college in Chicago so will be participating at the O’s in Kentucky. School has registered and done necessary things so child can dance. I am on Facebook etc for info on theO’s so doing that. I have never been to Kentucky before so have a few questions if any people have been to the area before.
I see reservations open 9/24 for hotels. Are they crazy when the links open and get sold out quickly?
How close are the hotels to the venue?
What is the rough price for a hotel there?
Are the hotels cheaper to wait for the block to open?
Any hotels that are closer to the venue or people recommend?
How is the area?
Any tips for a newbie?
Thank you so much for all your help in advance

- The 16th Annual Chicago Autumn Feis will be held on Sunday, November 4th, 2018 -- Alyssa, 21:19:31 09/17/18 Mon (162-233-154-153.lightspeed.cicril.sbcglobal.net/162.233.154.153)
The Chicago Autumn Feis is happy to announce that registration is now open. Go to www.QuickFeis.com secure your spot in the 2018 Chicago Autumn Feis.
The Chicago Autumn Feis is hosted by the Dennehy School of Irish Dance Parent’s Club, and we are very proud to be offering this exciting feis for the 16th Annual Year. We are happy to be back at North Central College’s Recreation Center at 440 S. Brainard Street, Naperville, IL. This is a wonderful feis for dancers preparing for the Midwest Oireachtas. We encourage all schools to bring their soloists and ceili teams to participate in this very lively day of competitions.
QuickFeis has been fully updated with 2018 information, including this year's Syllabus and registration information. Please read the syllabus carefully! More information (including a list of vendors, parking information, competitor list, adjudicators/musicians, and more) will be posted to our website as that information becomes available. Just go to Dennehydancers.com and select the “Chicago Autumn Feis” tab in the top right corner.
The Stage Schedule will not be available until after all entries close. However, we can let you know that First Feis and all Beginner 1 competitions will be right at the beginning of the day, along with figures. We will mostly likely run stages 5-8 by the grades. There will be 4 grade stages to help ensure a quickly and smoothly running day. Time estimates for these will not be known until closer to the feis, when registration closes. Once the course of the day is confirmed we will let you know.
There will be 4 stages running PC/OC competitions. PC competitions in the morning on all four stages and OC competitions following right after on all four stages. This decision will not be final until all entries close as stage scheduling is based on the number of dancers we have in each competition. Our goal is to make sure the day runs as quickly and smoothly as possible. Dancers will dance TWO AT A TIME and start in LIGHT SHOES.
We are proud to offer soda bread, arts & crafts, and music competitions at the 2018 Feis. The Chicago Autumn Feis is committed to promoting Irish Culture in our community, and this of course, includes offering opportunities to our many talented singers, musicians, artists, and bakers.
The Dennis Dennehy Perpetual Cup will be awarded to the winner of the oldest men’s open championship competition. Even if the men are comined with the ladies competitions, the trophy will be awarded to the highest placing man. The winner of the Senior Ladies Open Championship will be offered the Marge Dennehy Perpetual Cup.
More information about the area around North Central College, hotel, restaurants, and much more will be updated to our website in the upcoming weeks.
Our entry caps are as follows: 450 for PC/OC competitions; 850 for grade competitions. Online registration will close on October 24th OR when caps are met, whichever comes first. This feis fills quickly. Reserve your spot now!

Hi there, we have never gone to the Michigan Feis in Muskegon before. Does anyone know if they charge for parking, and do I need to get there extra early to get a spot? I see it's at a school, and there will be an Irish fest going on in the area as well. Normally I send my dancer in the door by herself if I need to find parking, but since it's at a school, will she be able to find the registration table and stages?

We are new to the Mid America region. Is there a company that does tanning and are there vendors that do hair and makeup. I have looked and I can’t seem to find a list of vendors.
Thank you for any help you can provide

Hi there,
My child is attending college in Chicago, and wondering a few things if anyone could help me I would appreciate it. They are going to continue to dance under their old school name and just practice by themselves.
Is this the right forum to be on to find out information?
Where would I find out information about the O? (If I am correct it is in Kentucky thanksgiving weekend)
When is the O information released?
Thank you so much for all your help.

This is teally not fair why can’t one day (ideally Sunday;) PC dancers be at the beginning of schedule and OC dancers after PC? One day would be ok but dancing at the end if day on both days is simply not fair. Does anyone have a reasonable explanation for this? Very frustrated mom over here!

Please consider supporting a new feis in the Southern Region.
The Irish Channel Feis has been a fixture in the southern region for the last five years. This casual feis is all about the dancing - no dress, and no wig needed. Every dancer will get a t-shirt with their registration to wear with any black bottom (skirt, shorts, pants, etc.) of their choosing. This feis is part of Irish Fest New Orleans, and competitors and their families get to enjoy a day of great Irish festivities. Headliners for this year's festival include the Grammy Award winning Lost Bayou Ramblers.
This year, we've taken it even further and added a back-to-back feis on Sunday - NOLA Feis. This feis allows dresses and wigs.
Both feiseanna have second chances, so if you do both, you will have 4 chances to qualify for your dances!
Both events will take place in the historic Kingsley House (1600 Constance Street in New Orleans).
IRISH CHANNEL FEIS (Sat Sept 15) is offering:
☘️ GRADE EXAMS (levels 1-6) the same day as the feis. The Grades examiner will be Terry Gillan.
☘️ NO COSTUMES - No dresses and no wigs. All dancers will wear the official competitors t-shirt (included with feis registration) and are asked to wear dark colored bottoms, with their dance shoes of course
☘️ SECOND CHANCE competitions - these are called "Preview" competitions that give you a second chance to place in your dances.
☘️ SPECIAL TROPHY competitions - check out the syllabus for details!
NOLA FEIS (Sun Sept 16) is offering:
☘️ FULL COSTUME COMPETITION - showcase your prized Irish dance costume!
☘️ SECOND CHANCE competitions - these are called "Preview" competitions that give you yet another second chance to place in your dances.
☘️ SPECIAL TROPHY competitions - check out the syllabus for details!
Online registration will close on Friday September 7.

On Saturday, SEPTEMBER 29, we invite you to join us at the St. Paul RiverCentre on the banks of the Mississippi River in beautiful downtown St. Paul, Minnesota, for THE MINNESOTA FEIS 2018 (visit our web site at http://www.theminnesotafeis.org/ for great information). And then stick around for the ST. PAUL AUTUMN FEIS, on Sunday, SEPTEMBER 30 http://www.idpamn.org/ Take advantage of the last back-to-back feis weekend, not one but TWO Mid-America-Oireachtas-qualifying events, before the Oireachtas registration deadline!
Registration is through http://www.feisworx.com/ . Competition on Saturday will start at 8:30 AM (opening ceremonies at 8:15 AM); Sunday’s competition will begin at 8:00 AM. The Championship stage will proceed from OLDEST to YOUNGEST dancers.
We are offering Trophy Special Set Dance competitions that are open to BOTH Preliminary Champ dancers and Prizewinner dancers who are preparing dances for the Mid-America Oireachtas. For those in U9, it will be traditional set; U10 and above will be non-traditional set.
Our dance adjudicators for this year:
Kerry Broderick, New York
Colleen Coyle Kelly, Pennsylvania
Michael Patrick Gallagher, Arizona
Martin Percival, Colorado
Heather Timm, Ohio
John Timm, Ohio
**The treble reel is one of the most fun things to do at a feis, and we are again scheduling these to make participation easier: Champ treble reels will be held throughout the day, and Novice/Prizewinner treble reels will be right at the end of the scheduled lunch break. All treble reel proceeds from The Minnesota Feis will go to support Breast Cancer Research. NEW THIS YEAR at the St. Paul Autumn Feis is a Hornpipe Special dance in memory of Áine O’Shea. Proceeds from this special will be sent to St. Francis Hospice in Blanchardstown in Dublin for the love and care they gave to her in her final days. We encourage everyone to register for both these specials that support such worthy causes!
Admission is FREE to the public, so bring your family and friends. Also, if you are bringing someone who is a non-dancer, but SINGS OR PLAYS AN INSTRUMENT (or does these in addition to dance!) there is competition for them as well! Just use the Feisworx system to register. Arts and Soda Bread are in there, too.
In addition to “feising,” there are many things to see and do in St. Paul, Minneapolis, and the surrounding area, including:
--We were among the last to find out, but Justin Timberlake is in town, and not just to see his Minnesota in-laws! There are still tickets available for his Sept. 28 and 29 shows.
--The Science Museum of Minnesota https://www.smm.org/, across the street from the RiverCentre.

I tried to register my PC dancer for the Wisconsin feis on 8-8-18. Competition is in 9/1/18. Although I was within the early registration window the Championship dancer cap (125) had been reached so my daughter was put on a wait list. Grade level competions still are well away from their cap so do feis’ tend to release dancers off wait list? Just trying to determine if need to make alternate plans for that weekend. Thanks in advance!

For the past two years, my dancer and I were let in without having to have to purchase tickets. Sylabus says: Any family members not registered will need to purchase tickets at this gate for $10 each. Would this mean for those familt members where dancer has more then one adult coming with her to feis?

Anyone know for sure how many rounds will PC have at Milwaukee and McMenamin feis? (two rouds or is set also included in championship?)
Info in Milwaukee feis's syllabus is a little confusing:
"*For 2017 dancers in all Preliminary Championship competitions will dance 2 Rounds only – 48 bars of the reel or 40 bars of the slip-jig and 40 bars of the hornpipe or 48 bars of the treble jig. *Preliminary Championships will be judged and scored by all 3 judges. In addition, awards will also be announced for each solo round (light, heavy round and set) based on the scores of one judge (different judges scores for each individual round)."
Considering registering my daughter but her set is not ready so.
Thank you in advance.

Does anyone know which feisanna in Mid America (or even Mid-Atlantic/Eastern Canada) have larger grades stages? Indianapolis feisanna has lovely larger grades stages but some are so small! Any guidance is appreciated.

What are your or your dancers favorite types of awards to receive at feisanna? Most feis still do medals or trophies, but are there any unconventional awards that anyone has really liked? If you had trophies and medals as your favorite, what kinds did you like best? Sashes or no?
Trying to freshen up the awards at an upcoming feis and wanted the masses to give feed back! Thank you!

- Summerfeis Bust -- New Feis committee??? (Rudest bunch of volunteers.), 12:28:06 07/15/18 Sun (d60-65-217-224.col.wideopenwest.com/65.60.224.217)
I don’t know what happened this year as opposed to previous years, but the people working Summer Feis this year were rude, disrespectful and totally untrained to run a Feis. Their treatment of dancers and parents across the board is unacceptable. This used to be a fun, friendly Feis and this year it was the most unwelcoming event we have ever been to. Stage monitors were pushing dancers out of the path of the outdoor fans telling them they were only for the judges to keep cool. They were snapping and yelling at the dancers to get their acts together or not bother dancing champ monitors). I have dancers in both the grades and champs and found the level of rudeness appalling for both stage areas. The pace of the Feis was worse than a snail and we were still there at 4:30 waiting in results. Irish dance is too expensive to spend money to be treated like families were yesterday. We will spendi ours elsewhere moving forward. Definitely cross this one off your list. Sad to say, as for the past 6 years it has been one of our favorites.

- I think the heat was really getting to everyone. They should have stuck to the original start time in syllabus of 8. The champ stage also started at least 40 min late- that starts a bad ripple down. Then around lunch they were going to stop a concurrent pc/oc comp after SS then they changed mind after everyone scattered. Never experienced a break right in middle of a comp.

- Agree. We haven't done champs at this feis, and the set up in the tavern is a bit confusing. Since there was no "now" and "next" signage for check-in purposes, and no visible way to tell the progress of the upstairs champ stage, I asked a champ stage monitor when she was alone, how do the dancers tell what they are on so they can know when to check in? She replied harshly and abruptly, "they don't" and turned away. Pretty rude response to a simple question. No additional explanation given.

- How can such a well run/established Feis go to hell in a hand basket with just a simple transfer of chairs/committee. This was not a first time Feis. It was a well oiled machine and the huge mistakes made were totally avoidable. May Also not sure what happened with champ awards. The last 2 years that we have been there for PC/OC comps, every dancer that placed received a trophy...some out to 9th place. This year is was piecemeal and mismatch of leftover items with no consistency after 3rd place. (NT) -- No name, 08:26:13 07/16/18 Mon (d60-65-217-224.col.wideopenwest.com/65.60.224.217)

To get into MidAmerica Oireactas a PC must finish in top 50 percent.
My daughter's group had 8 registered but only 7 danced and she finished 4th.
Could anyone tell me if that is top 50 based on 8 registered dancers? Or not because only 7 danced?

🌟☘️🌟☘️🌟☘️🌟☘️🌟
The MULLANE GODLEY Feis (Sat June 16) and the NEW FATHER'S DAY FEIS (Sun June 17) are both accepting NEW registrations at each feis!
Just see someone in tabulation anytime before the start of your competition (so unless you are first up, no need to show up before the feis), fill out a card, pay your fees and you are IN! The late fee is ONLY $50!
Champs - this is a great way to get ready for Nationals - on Saturday you have a 9 judge panel that includes many judges who have adjudicated at many national events.
And non-champ dancers, this is a great opportunity to move up.
Sunday is a more relaxed day - all about making dad's day nicer - wear comfortable black and white outfits, no wigs, no make-up - the judges are just looking for great dancing :)
Looking forward to seeing you there! 😊

My latest release for Irish dancers - "The Vanishing Lakes Collection" - is available NOW for pre-sale on iTunes and will officially released on June 25th.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-vanishing-lake-collection-bonus-tracks/1396893172
*Reserve your download on iTunes NOW and instantly receive a download of a Presentation Reel track, perfect for class or dance outs!*
As a TCRG myself, I've designed this album to make class more efficient, allowing dancers to focus on endurance and rhythm work.
Tracks are laid out 4 different ways:
----**Entire Set TWICE in a row** (eliminates wasted time in class for those waiting in line to dance)
----**Full Step Part TWICE followed by Set TWICE** (for endurance runs)
----**Basic Set WITHOUT percussion** (encourages dancers to listen to the MUSIC itself, not the heavy beat that is embedded into most Irish dance tracks)
----**Basic Set** (for good, oldfashioned practice =))
Hope you all enjoy! :)

- Mullane Godley Feis and MG Father's Day Feis -- MG staff, 18:36:00 06/06/18 Wed (NoHost/12.167.248.238)
As a friendly reminder - registration without a late fee is closing soon. We have a great weekend planned and we are scheduling to be finished on Sunday no later than 3pm ... plenty of time to celebrate with dad for Father's Day.
Some helpful notes on the Feis:
. This is a great tune-up for dancers competing at the Nationals.
. Saturday's Feis provides three rounds and a total of 9 adjudicators in both Preliminary and Open Championship and will be run youngest to oldest.
. Sunday's Feis will be two rounds adjudicated by 3 different judges and will be run oldest to youngest. On Sunday, OC and PC are scheduled to be completed by lunch time.
. Reminder - Sunday's Feis is a costume-optional / Black and White Feis. We have instructed the adjudicators that the Feis will be full-costume optional and suggest dancers dress similar to the Black and White Feis. Dancers can choose either full costumes, or Black/White appropriate costumes and be adjudicated equally
. All grade competitions will be split at 22 dancers with generous placements.
. Free comments for Grades available online at QuickFeis
. 3 Rounds and 9 judges for both PC and OC on Saturday
. Medals for each PC and OC round - 50% awarded
. Teddy Bears and special award ceremony for our First Feis dancers on both days
. Synchronized Team Treble Reel competition on Saturday for Cash prizes
. Rotating Panel of Adjudicators
. Podium & Sashes for Top 5 in PC and OC
. Special gift for all the Father's in attendance on Sunday
. Special Father's Day fun team competition (no limit on size of team) with cash prizes
. We anticipate that Sunday's Feis for grades will be over no later than 2:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Any questions, contact us at our website mullanegodley.com

- Mullane Godley Father’s Day Feis -- MG Committee, 14:45:26 05/25/18 Fri (NoHost/38.111.32.58)
NOTE: After requests from both dancers and teachers, Sunday’s Father’s Day Feis - JUNE 17th - will be a costume-optional / Black and White Feis.
In order to make it easier for parents - especially Dads on Father’s Day - we have instructed the adjudicators that the Feis will be full-costume optional and suggest dancers dress similar to the Black and White Feis.
Due to late notice, dancers can choose either full costumes, or Black/White appropriate costumes and be adjudicated equally.

Do costumes for a black out/black and white feis have to abide by the regular costume rules? Ie, does it have to come up to collarbone and do lace or chiffon sleeves need to hit the wrist (although that's just my interpretation of that rule)? Within reason, of course, not looking to wear a low cut leotard but would a high scoop neck be ok?

- Open Champ question for mid America feises. -- No name, 12:16:59 05/13/18 Sun (bas1-hamilton01-174-88-20-229.dsl.bell.ca/174.88.20.229)
Was reading the Detroit feis info and if over 20 competitors they may elect to do a recall for the set round.
Does this apply to every mid am feis? Cleveland?
We are travelling from out of the region and was going to do a few other feises as well but this is something to consider.

Does anyone know of or recommend a place where I could find bloomers/kick pants for under my dress? Preferably that would fit a plus size dancer.
Thank you.
