SUMMER DANCE CAMP
Competition Dance Camp - June 22nd- 28th 
Beg/Int. Dance & Music Camp Rock - August 17th-22nd.

This summer, because of the interest in the previous summer dance camps and the fact that the camp is a requirement for competition students, we have added a second dance camp.  You can now signup for a camp online, through the Customer login center.

1) The Competition Dance Camp will be in June and run Mon-Fri. from 9am-3pm.  This camp is mainly geared for Competition and more advanced dancers.  This is a requirement for students wishing to compete next year.  Dancers with conflicting dates will be allowed to take the second camp.  The show will be at Leif Erickson Park Sunday at 2pm. The cost of the camp is $160 for the week.

2) The Beg/Int Dance & Music Camp is made up of 5 days of dancing or, this year, music as well! It takes place in Aug and runs Mon-Fri. from 9am-1pm.  This camp is geared more toward the younger dancers, 5-9yr olds, who cannot make it a full day.  The Intermediate dancer, 10-16yr olds, who needs a little more one on one class without the fast pace, and The Beginner/Intermediate musician who would like to learn more about the music world and play or sing in a group setting.  The performance will be Saturday the 22nd with the location to be announced. The cost of the camp is $115 for the week.
