  • replacing a skirt -- julie, Fri, February 08, 05:54:09pm
    I am looking to replace a white cotton soft skirt with another one, old one is very dirty. I am looking for your help if you could recommend fabric that would work well and maybe update the dress a bit. I also don't know how much this will cost and I am trying to sell my dress with the new skirt on so I don't want to spend a fortune. Does anyone have experience doing this and recommend anyone in the GTA or SW Ontario?

  • Question about All Scots? -- ecr mama - dd new to prelim champ, Fri, February 15, 12:03:06pm
    I was looking at the schedule and I don't see an actual competition for Preliminary Championships. I'm curious on how it works? Do they dance against the Open Champ dancers and then get split out for scoring? Do they dance all three rounds? If you win/place in Prelim can you also place in the Open Championship if you are good enough?

    If someone could explain, it would be appreciated!

  • Best and worst comments for the O'Donnell feis! -- new approach?, Mon, January 28, 11:43:31am
    We just love having a local feis and it gets frustrating when we see comments - good and bad ripped apart.

    Why don't we all try giving them some feedback that they can work with for next year? 1 good and 1 bad comment per post with specifics since everyone may perceive things differently based on the location they were in the building, the time they danced, etc.

    Try not to repeat the comments.

    Here are our comments!

    Good - speedy results - only waited 10 mins for our last dance to be posted
    Bad - grades stage 4 was over crowded while the champ rooms were expansive

  • O'Donnell Winter Feis -- Kathleen O'Neill Cowan, Mon, January 28, 03:48:09pm
    On behalf of the O'Donnell Winter Feis committee, I would like to thank all the Dancers and Families for attending our feis and making it a huge success.

    We had a couple of hiccups at the beginning of the day due to the late judges and the bus arriving late because of the accident on the 401 but we are thankful that everyone arrived safely and was able to dance. The feis got underway shortly before 9:00am with the Opening Ceremony (a big thanks to the O'Neill family for singing the National Anthems) and a moment of silence for one of North America's Forefathers of Irish Dance, the late Dennis Dennehy. We ended the day with the C15 results at 5:15 pm.

    We would like to thank the volunteers for all the hard work before and during the feis. Without you, this feis wouldn't be possible!

    I hope everyone enjoyed their day and we will see you next year!

    Kind Regards,
    Kathleen

    **Pre-registration will take place in Sheraton lobby from 6:30-8:00 PM Friday night
    **The IX Center will not be open for anyone other than our Grade Examinees on Friday night. Nails, power tools and stage materials make the area unsafe for children.
    **All art and soda bread entries can be taken directly to the judging table in morning. They will be logged in there, not at the registration table.
    **We will accept Charity Treble Reel entries on feis day
    **Treble Reels will be held at approx noon on OC stage
    **There will be a designated dress resale area
    **There will be an approx 30 min lunch break on all stages
    **Assigned camping areas will be available, please be respectful, and try to keep your camping area to a minimum of space, no tables, large folding chairs, etc. Walkways must be maintained. Camping outside of these areas will not be permitted.
    **Approx times for PC/OC awards will be posted and updated throughout the day
    **Dont forget our photo booth(new this year) and our raffle

  • Have New Tiara with the Larger Stones glued onto the front. No room for pins through front. Any suggestions on how to secure this to the wig for dancing. It is heavier than a regular tiara because of stones. It was as gift. Thanks -- ("), Mon, January 21, 10:15:40am

    Hello Dance Families,

    We will be posting an updated competitor list later tonight but wanted to remind those that have not yet entered that tomorrow (January 14) is the last day to register without a late fee. Final entries (with late fees) are scheduled to close on January 18 but it may be sooner as we are close to reaching our 600 dancer cap.

    We still have quite a few mailed payments that are outstanding and if we reach the cap prior to receiving your payment we unfortunately, will not be able to accept your entry.

    If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me by clicking on my name above.

    See you on the 26th!

    Kind Regards,
    Kathleen

  • Are you going to the North Coast Feis from the GTA and aren't looking forward to the drive? -- Robin, Wed, January 16, 08:45:35pm
    DD is just back from an injury and will not be ready to compete. We have 2 seats on the GC squared (Goggin-Carroll/Gilchrist Canavan) bus trip leaving Friday Feb 1st and returning on Saturday evening. It is a fun filled trip with lovely people and we are sad to have to miss it! I also have a room at the host hotel at the feis rate if you would like to take that over. Please click on my name to email me if interested.

  • North Coast Feis Updates -- Irishmama. NCF Secretary, Sat, January 12, 01:13:40am
    Just a few things -
    *We are going to be doing something new and different this year, something fun for the dancers and a memory for the parents. There will be a photo booth available all day at the feis. Absolute Joy Entertainment will be providing a photo booth starting at about 8AM. Photo strips will cost $4 each and there are four pictures to a strip. We think this will be a really fun way for feis friends to record a memory of the day!
    *Dont forget the art and soda bread competitions-free this year! Show off your creative side!!
    *Remember that our last date for changes is Jan 18. Only mandatory changes can be made after this date. (PC to OC)
    *Some of you have asked us if we will be splitting our champ competitions. After meeting, the committee feels that this year, since we did not plan to split champs and had no guidelines for splitting stated in our syllabus, we will not be instituting a change at this late date. PC and OC comps will not be split, but everyone will do their set and there will be no recall. Next year, we may decide on a number at which a champ comp would split and we will post it early on. For grade dancers, all comps will split at 28 and if at all possible, we will combine comps smaller than 5.Boys will be combined with the next age group up, and if this still does not make 5, they will be placed in their appropriate age group combined with the girls.
    *We have some wonderful vendors, and some new faces.
    Ballinvilla Products
    Celtic By Design
    Sunshine and Memories
    Fine Designs
    Playhouse Square
    Button & Co
    Emerald Key
    *We will have food and drink available all day and there will also be a bar for drinks/adult beverages
    Stage schedules are being worked on and will be posted when ready.
    Hope this info helps you out-
    Looking forward to seeing you all on Groundhog Day!!

  • With the new year upon us, now might be the time to post those Irish dance items you have for sale and dig them out from under the bed or the bottom of the closet. -- Rhonda at FeisDresses.com, Tue, January 08, 08:14:40am
    You may always list any of your Irish dance items for free on FeisDresses.com. The goal of the site is to help out Irish dance families in this tough economy. With the new year, it's also a great time to look at your current dresses/items selling and perhaps lower your price or update your listing to help your item sell. Happy buying and selling everyone!
