SUMMARY:Summer Performance: Prosser States Day Parade and Stage Show
DESCRIPTION:We always have a great time participating in the Prosser States Day Parade\, then we go over to Prosser Memorial Park and perform our stage show as part of the States Day festivities! \nProsser Parade and Stage Show details: \nMeet at 7:30 am on SW Bennett Ave by the bus barn for Keene River View Elementary School in Prosser to decorate. Take 2nd Prosser exit (Exit 80) by McDonalds and follow signs (or google it). Judging starts promptly at 8:30. We are at the intersection of SW Bennett Ave. and Brown St; the closest physical address to the location is 715 Brown St. \nYou all did a stellar of decorating the floats and helping undecorate at the Kennewick parade.  Let’s do it again! \nJudging is at 8:30.  The parade starts at 10:00. We should be in the first half of the parade to have time to eat lunch and prep for the stage show. \nKids who do BOTH DANCE AND CLOG – Have both the Blue Studio t-shirt with white shorts AND white clogging shirt with denim shorts.  We never know who will actually show up for this parade (HOPEFULLY EVERYONE!) so may have to adjust plans to cover the dancing and clogging. \nDancers wear blue t-shirts with white shorts (teens wear black shorts)\, comfortable mostly white shoes\, white socks\, hair in a tight bun so you are ready for the stage show that follows the parade. \nCloggers wear white clogging shirts\, denim/dark shorts\, white socks. \nBring water & remember sun screen. Cloggers bring comfortable walking shoes in case your clogging shoes begin to irritate you. The parade starts at 10:00. Bring/wear a jacket; warm up pants over your parade attire as it’s typically cool early in the morning. \nWear your t-shirts & shorts for the parade (just like the Benton-Franklin Fair Parade). Wear hair ready for the stage show (buns for dancers\, side-parted low ponytails for cloggers). Sorry\, no high ponytails for the parade as there is not enough time to change your hair for the show. \nBring all costumes\, tights\, undergarments for the stage show. Remember to bring enough water for both events in a spill proof container and your lipstick. Wear sunscreen and eat a good breakfast. \nPROSSER STATES DAY STAGE SHOW \nThis is a combined dance and clogging show with all costumes.  The show is at Prosser Memorial Park.  We will drive from the parade to the park.  We need help setting up and tearing down the canopy at the park for costume changes. \nThere is very little time to eat lunch & get ready after the parade\, so packing your lunch is necessary. Bring your own lunch or buy it at the park for fastest service. DO NOT HAVE LUNCH AT ANY FAST FOOD PLACE OR RESTAURANT IN TOWN; THEY CANNOT GET TO YOU FAST ENOUGH AFTER THE PARADE \nOur stage show starts at 1:00 pm.

Dancers will receive a free ticket to the game at set-up. Family and friends can PRE-PURCHASE a discounted ticket using the link below. If you do not pre-purchase your ticket\, you will have to wait for the ticket office to open and wait for the gate to open at 6:00 pm to enter. \nLink for tickets is https://shorturl.at/bhHNJ \nOur discount should automatically load through the link\, but the coupon code is KDANCE24 if needed.  You do not need to purchase parking as we will be there at 5:00 pm to set up.  You will need to pay for parking if you arrive after 5:30.  Parking is $5 online or at the stadium and is CARD only. The stadium and vendors only accept card payment and do NOT take cash. \nEnter through small gate by the yellow fire hydrant to the RIGHT of the main gate. Bring all of your costumes\, water\, lipstick\, etc with you as you cannot leave and re-enter once inside the stadium. \n5:00 – Set floor\, sound system\, and dressing area/tent – you all rocked this at the Antique Show.  Let’s do it again!!  VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR THIS; please reply if you will help.  We need at least 8-10 people to help set & tear down the floor\, canopies\, and sound system.  It takes two people to carry & set each board\, at least 4-6 people to tape the floor\, and 4 people to set the canopies.  Please bring an umbrella (standing or clamp) if you have one\, for our sound tech. \n5:15 – ALL DANCERS & CLOGGERS READY and warming up at the Stage Area. Dress appropriately for outdoor changes with minimal privacy. \n5:45 – TEAM PHOTO \n6:00-6:55 pm – The gates open and it’s Show Time!  Actual duration depends on number of routines.\n6:55 ish – Tear down floor\, sound system & changing tent.  Be sure to put things away carefully so they are ready for the next show. Please help with this.  The adult cloggers & Miss Wendy VERY MUCH APPRECIATE help with this. \n7:05 – Game time!  Everyone please stop whatever you are doing and stand for the National Anthem.  Please wear your blue studio t-shirt or clogging shirt for the game. People love to recognize you after the show. \nBring ALL costumes.

No fly aways\nMakeup for all – Light makeup\, berry lipstick. Remember water\, sunscreen\, and blankets to sit on in the backstage area. Face towels\, cooling cloths\, misters are also encouraged.\nPARENTS – You may want to pack light\, healthy\, CLEAN snacks as this is a mid evening performance. Be sure your dancer eats a healthy meal and has plenty of water; SMART WATER is recommended for this show as it has electrolytes. \nDANCERS – REMAIN IN THE STAGING AREA. Do not run around the audience during the show unless you are handing out fliers. Be ‘backstage’ and ready for bows at the end. \nEveryone help clean up the area and check for water bottles\, etc. \nFloor set instructions – adjust as needed based on how the event is laid out this year. Dancers are okay to dance off the stage if needed for larger routines. \nSet the floor facing East on the largest section between the shade pillars and in as much shade as possible.  This is typically a 24′ W x 16′ D floor.  The boards are 4 x 8\, so this will be 12 boards total.  Try to place boards with worn corners on the outer edges and boards that appear the least slick in the center/front of the stage. \nConnect the boards with the white duct tape.  Use ONE piece of tape for the entire seam and run the tape a few inches off the ends of the boards to attach the tape to the side walk. Do not stretch the tape too tight.  Have dancers walk the tape to fully secure it to the boards.  Several dancers and parents know how to do this so EVERYONE please help.    \nPOST -SHOW – ALL HANDS ON DECK to help tear down the floor and dressing areas. Again\, everyone was so wonderful at the Antique Show. Let’s do it again!  We really appreciate EVERYONE’S help!!

SUMMARY:Summer Performance: Benton-Franklin County Fair Parade
DESCRIPTION:We always have a great time participating in the Benton-Franklin County Fair Parade! \nParade DETAILS: \nLook for the blue Lampson semi-truck. The truck and our float tend to be near Kennewick High School auditorium or the Library across the street.  Be at the float at 7:00-7:10 am to help decorate and practice dancing. Check-in is at 7:00 am for our truck and sometimes delayed.  So don’t worry if you see the semi driving down the street; we have to be escorted to our spot and will meet you there.  Judging is between 8:30 and 9:30. Wear sunscreen\, bring lots of water\, and mostly white closed toed shoes/walking shoes to dance in. \nDANCERS wear BLUE studio t-shirt with WHITE shorts (no denim and not too short).\, mostly white shoes.  Young dancers on the float may bring their blue dance bag to hold maracas between routines. \nCLOGGERS wear WHITE clogging t-shirt with stretch denim shorts (not too short)\, white socks. \nALL – Hair in a neat ponytail secured with a black hair band. No fly-aways please.  Wear mostly white comfortable closed-toed shoes for walking/dancing. Berry colored lipstick so the crowd can see our dancers’ beautiful smiles. \nPARENTS/OLDER SIBLINGS – We need banner carriers\, water carriers\, semi truck spotters\, people to hand out flyers and candy throwers to walk alongside our vehicles. Wear a studio t-shirt or Dance Connection polos if you have them; you can purchase from the office too or wear a blue or black shirt that you already have. Wear shoes for walking. Allow time to park & walk to the float. Bring only your water as there isn’t room for other ‘stuff’ on the float. \nToddlers and Preschoolers will ride on the small float.  1-2 parents ride on the small float as chaperones to ensure dancers stay seated and help them with hand motions. \nElementary and older dancers will dance the parade behind the small float. \nCloggers will dance on the semi trailer behind the dancers. \nWe need 3 very attentive spotters to walk behind the dancers and in front of the semi. \nCandy throwers are also safety spotters and need to be attentive to kids running into the street. \nALL – STAY TO HELP UNDECORATE\, ORGANIZE\, AND LOAD THE VAN AFTER THE PARADE. Many hands make fast\, light work.

SUMMARY:Summer Performance: Dancing at the Antique Show in John Dam Plaza
DESCRIPTION:Dancing at the Antique Show in John Dam Plaza – July 27\, 2024 \nCome join us for a morning of dance at the HUNT & GATHER VINTAGE IN THE PARK SHOW in John Dam Plaza\, between Jadwin Ave. and George Washington Way in Richland (NOTE – this is NOT Art in the Park at Howard Amon Park). \nFull costume Show! \nBE HYDRATED in the days LEADING UP TO THE SHOW!  Dancers drink 60-80 oz of water per day in the 3-5 days leading up to the show.  Waiting to drink water on the day of the show will be too late to prevent overheating. \nTo help dancers stay cool\, you are welcome to bring cooling cloths and/or misters.  Small hand towels are good for dancers in multiple routines. SMART WATER is recommended as it has electrolytes and won’t stain costumes. Cool water is ok but heavy ice water is NOT advised as it cannot be used in case of emergency.  \nBefore you leave the house – have hair & makeup done. Eat a good\, healthy breakfast. Apply sunscreen. Bring WATER. Allow extra time to travel and park as this on Hydro weekend and the Art in the Park events.  You can park at the south end of John Dam Plaza or across the street in the Federal Building Parking Lot. \nPARENTS – You may want to pack light\, healthy\, CLEAN snacks as this is a long morning. You are welcome to bring lawn chairs or blankets to watch the show and invite guests. Blankets are also recommended for your dancer’s class to sit ‘backstage’ between routines. \nDANCERS – REMAIN IN THE STAGING AREA. Do not walk in front of the stage or hang out behind the stage. Do not run around the audience during the show. The audience can see everything happening around the stage\, so please be on your most professional behavior. Be lined up ‘backstage’ and ready for bows at the end. \nEveryone help clean up the area\, tear down the floor\, sound equipment and changing areas\, load the van and check for water bottles\, etc.  Many hands make light work\, and the older dancers very much appreciate that they can change and recover after the show while parents/volunteers take care of this. \n9:00 – Spotter for the van in place and ready to help the van driver maneuver across the park.  Please reply if you can be the spotter.\n9:15 – Set floor\, sound system\, and dressing area/tent – VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR THIS; please reply if you will help.  See FLOOR SET Instructions at the end of this note. We need at least 8-10 people to help set & tear down the floor\, canopies\, and sound system.  It takes two people to carry & set each board\, at least 4-6 people to tape the floor\, and 4 people to set the canopies.  Please bring an umbrella (standing or clamp) if you have one\, for our sound tech. \n9:30 – ALL DANCERS & CLOGGERS READY and warming up at the Stage Area near the North end of John Dam Plaza. Dress appropriately for outdoor changes with minimal to no privacy. \n9:45 TEAM PHOTO \n10:00-11:30 – Show Time!  Actual duration depends on number of routines.\n11:30ish – Tear down floor\, sound system & changing tent.  Be sure to put things away carefully so they are ready for the next show. VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR THIS; please text or email us that you can help. \nBring ALL costumes. Wear tights\, leotard or biketard\, black leggings/shorts/pants\, blue studio t-shirts or clogging shirts if you have them to/from venue. \nDANCERS – hair in neat bun.  Dancers who are not in a ballet routine may wear their hair the same as the cloggers.\nCLOGGERS – hair side-parted low ponytail; secured away from the face with a BLACK hair band. No fly aways\nMakeup for all – Light makeup\, berry lipstick. Remember water\, sunscreen\, and blankets to sit on in the backstage area. Face towels\, cooling cloths\, misters are also encouraged. \nFloor set instructions – adjust as needed based on how the event is laid out this year. Dancers are okay to dance off the stage if needed for larger routines. \nSet the floor facing East on the largest section of the brick sidewalk and in as much shade as possible. See the picture at the top of the page for reference.  This is typically a 24′ W x 16′ D floor.  The boards are 4 x 8\, so this will be 12 boards total.  Rough side goes down; smooth side up.  Try to place boards with worn corners on the outer edges and boards that appear the least slick in the center of the stage. \nConnect the boards with the white duct tape.  Use ONE piece of tape for the full length of the seams and run the tape a few inches off the ends of the boards to attach the tape to the side walk. Do not stretch the tape too tight.  Have dancers walk the tape to fully secure it to the boards.  Several dancers and parents know how to do this\, so EVERYONE please help!
