Thanks for everyone's help with the BYU fundraiser as well as the Winter Concert.  Pictures of both events are now posted on the right hand side of the blog under Pages - 2014 BYU Fundraiser and 2014 Winter Concert.

Ballroom Winter Concert

Don't miss the ballroom concert tonight at Lone Peak High School.  Tickets are $5 for students, $6 for adults and $20 for immediate family members.  Each single ticket purchased will receive 1 raffle ticket and a family ticket purchased will receive 4 raffle tickets.  Additional raffle tickets can be purchased: $5 for 1 ticket, $10 for 3 tickets, $20 for 7 tickets and $50 for 20 tickets.  The more you buy, the more chances you have to win one of several fabulous prizes!

There will be a Silent Auction bidding from 6:00 - 7:00 pm.  At intermission there will be 15 minutes for final bidding of auction items.

There will be 3 raffle sessions in between performance numbers.  The final one will be at the end of the concert and will feature our grand prize - a Thomas Kinkade Victorian Christmas print.

The ballroom team appreciates your support!

Parent Meeting

There will be a parent meeting on Wednesday, September 24 at 6:15 pm in the small gym.  We will be discussing the spring tour and hold a parent vote.

2014 Homecoming Halftime Show

Great job on the homecoming halftime show!  You can watch the performance here: http://youtu.be/_tFmBeWGqPE.  There are also pictures on the right hand side under Pages: 2014-2015 Homecoming Halftime Show.  If your parents have pictures they want to share, have them send an email to BallroomLPHS@gmail.com so we can put them on the blog.

Welcome Back!

Our first activity will be Saturday, August 16.  Meet at the Lone Peak small gym at 9:00.  Bring ballroom shoes if you have them, otherwise bring tennis shoes.  You need to be in dance clothes - no tank tops, no shirts that show your stomach, and NO jeans!  Make sure you also bring water and snacks because we will be there until 3:00.

That night we will have our opening social at Victoria Mikkelson's home.  If you need her address or your food assignment, check the ballroom Facebook page.  If you are not yet a member of that page, send an email to ballroomLPHS@gmail.com.

Let's make this our best year yet!
