Subject: Anyone else find it interesting the region has moved the deadline to register for the Oireachtas to 9/1 instead of 10/1, when it is likely the event won't even happen? Given we still haven't received a refund for our fee for Worlds, I'm thinking there wouldn't be a refund for Regionals either. Seems like registrations should be LATER, not a month earlier.

Can’t assume the states will be taken off the list.

I unofficially heard if you qualified last year you automatically qualify for this year. Its teacher's discretion for dancers who did not qualify for a solo last year.

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> That makes more sense. I wish the CLRG would put it in writing on their website. Personally, I'd just as soon not register my DD for the Oireachtas with all the uncertainty, but she is a WQ & I don't know if she still has to dance the O if it's just a "feis." She is a college student, so it would be nice to stay home in November so she can study. -- Dance Mum, 20:48:12 08/09/20 Sun (cpe-65-189-55-125.cinci.res.rr.com/65.189.55.125)

It would really suck being someone in charge of planning. Impossible really. I think that they are just doing the best that they can given the ever evolving Covid rules and other unknowns. It states the entry fee is 100% refundable. And by moving up the entry date they can see how many entrants they have to do additional planning.

[> [> [> Would feiseanna and Oireachtas consider doing what other solo dance competitions do and only allow one dancer on the stage at a time, including not lining up the next dancer until the current performer is off stage?

I think they need the registrations sooner due to planning. We all know this can’t be easy.

[> [> You're probably right. I was surprised when I saw the syllabus. No team comps listed, early deadline, etc. So many rumors flying. But I think you are right.
