SMDSC and
SMPAC are in the final 6 days
of Registration. If
you have already registered, your registration fees must be paid by the
January 17th, 2009 deadline.
This is a USA Dance National Qualifying
Event! If
you wish to compete at the USA Dance event, you must also be a member of
USA Dance. To join, download the membership application
. Fill it
out and submit it along with your entry. (If you join USA Dance with the
downloaded form at the comp, the local chapter gets half of your dues
payment rather than all of the dues going to the national coffers. You
may even join at the time you pick up your competition packet.)
