The Halloween Feis, 2008 - Chicago, IL -- Halloween Feis, 14:57:31 08/20/08 Wed
The Halloween Feis, 2008, will be held again at the McCook Athletic Exposition Center, in McCook, IL, on Saturday, October 25, 2008.
Last year the Halloween Feis, proved to be a fun day for all dancers, siblings, and their parents, as the lead up to the Oireachtas can be very stressful time for many dancers and their parents. The feis offered a day where all those worries and concerns disappeared, and the children enjoyed Irish dance to the full.
Participants are strongly encouraged to attend in costume, as will the adjudicators and musicians. For each treble reel competition there will be an additional prize awarded for the best Halloween costume. All treble reel proceeds will be donated to National Breast Cancer Foundation.
This year for all Preliminary and Open Championship competitions we will be using the same scoring system used at the Oireachtas, and each dancer will be adjudicated by NINE adjudicators, and all Preliminary and Open Championship dancers will be given the opportunity to dance their open set dance.
We have booked six overseas adjudicators and a further six out of state adjudicators, along with seven very accomplished musicians.
The feis will start of with a Halloween Parade at 8am, and throughout the day fun Halloween games and activities will be offered to all feis participants.
Event fee includes unlimited admission, parking, program, email results and indicidual PC/OC results distributed the same day.
Results will also be texted to your cell phone
Registration is being accepted via http://www.efeis.com and additional information can be found at http://www.halloweenfeis.net
Our host hotel is the Holiday Inn, Countyside, IL. We have secured a rate of $109 plus tax per night. You may make your reservation by calling 708-354-4200, and quoting IRISH DANCE as the booking reference. Rooms must be booked by September 24, 2007.
Come join the FUN - this is a great event for all ages and levels - from games and costume attire to the UNIQUE opportunity for PC/OC competitors to dance before 9 judges shortly before the Oireachtas !!!
We look forward to seeing you all at the Halloween Feis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take the unofficial Oireachtas survey! -- For US and Canada regions, 23:07:42 08/15/08 Fri
As we're all gearing up for the "O", there's a lot of things to wonder about. How does feis level affect recall or placement? What about when you started dancing, when you learned your "O" steps, how often you practiced, or whether or not you tanned?
As a first time "O"-goer, I created a survey for people in the US and Canada who went to the O in 05, 06, or 07. It has some questions about your level, "look", school, and experience and how it might relate to how you did.
Of course, this survey won't give any definite answers, but any information helps for those of us going into unfamiliar territory!
Visit the following link to take the survey and share some information on your Oireachtas experience:
http://www.freewebs.com/oireachtassurvey (You'll need to scroll down once you get to what appears to be a blank blog page)
You don't have to answer all the questions, and any response is appreciated!
I'll be closing it on September 10 and then start calculating some statistics for us all to know going into the "O".
It's totally anonymous and no results will be posted in a category with fewer than 5 surveys submitted.
Thanks for your time!

Hit ABC Show Seeks The Ultimate Irish Step Dancing Family for Primetime -- Danielle Gervais, 13:33:36 07/29/08 Tue
ABC'S WIFE SWAP SEEKS IRISH STEP DANCING FAMILIES FOR PRIMETIME!
My name is Danielle Gervais. I'm a Casting Producer for ABC's Primetime show, "Wife Swap." We’re currently gearing up for our fifth season and we're looking for one-of-a-kind families with plenty of personality to take part in the show. Specifically, we’re looking for families who live and breathe Irish Step Dancing and make it an integral part of their lives. If your house is filled with ghillies, hard shoes and lots of rollers, we want to hear from you! Families who participate in this documentary-style program are given a unique opportunity to share their beliefs and lifestyles with another family in order to foster tolerance and understanding one family at a time.
In case you are unfamiliar with the show, the premise of Wife Swap is to take two different families and have the moms switch places to experience how another family lives. Half of the week, mom lives the life of the family she is staying with. After making her observations, she introduces several "rule changes," where she implements rules and activities that are important to her family. It's a positive experience for people to not only learn but teach about other families and other ways of life. Wife Swap airs on Disney owned ABC television on Wednesdays at 8 pm- the family hour!
Requirements: Each family must consist of two parents and at least one child between 6 and 17 and should reside in the continental U.S. (There may be other children living in the home who are older or younger than the required age…as long as one child is in the required age range.)
Participating in the show is a very unique experience that can be life changing for everyone. Families that appear on the show will receive a financial honorarium for lost wages, time and commitment. Anyone who refers a family that appears on our program receives $1000 as a 'thank you’ from us.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me! If you're interested in learning more, please include your contact information.
Thank you for your time,
Danielle Gervais

Good Luck & Have Fun with your dance! -- NE mom supporting ALL dancers : ), 12:43:10 07/01/08 Tue
This was a poem I had from years ago when my twins were competitive figure skaters. Having one twin qualify for
Worlds and the other one never getting out of "States", I felt the need to come up with something that was directed to each and every skater.
I adapted it to commend every single DANCER out there. You all work so hard and deserve recognition. You're always a
winner when you do your best = )
My twins are in their 30's now & all but a few of the dozens of trophies, medals and plaques are gone, but the fond memories they made with family & friends will be treasured forever : )
FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS BUT GATHER PRECIOUS MEMORIES ALONG THE WAY!
"THE PODIUM"
To me, the podium is much bigger
than the one we see three or four dancers
stand atop of so proudly.
I see the stages at Worlds as a podium,
upon which each dancer who steps upon it
can be proclaimed a World Qualifier.
I see the stages at Nationals as a podium,
upon which each competitor who stand on it
can be considered a winner.
I see the stages at the Oireachtas as a podium too,
giving dancers who have mastered many skills
throughout the season the opportunity to be
"in the spotlight" by dancing in a championship.
I see the stages at local feishana as being a podium,
as it provides new dancers a chance
to "be on stage" in front of a crowd of spectators,
showing off their newly discovered talents.
It's also at "dance-outs" and floors at the studios,
in our kitchens and basements..churches included ; )
Even sidewalks and beaches,
stores and mall halls aren't excluded!
So, the podium, at least in my eyes,
is much bigger than the numbered box
so many dream of standing atop of.
Each time we enter a stage,
no matter where we are,
we are actually already standing atop it,
and we should be thankful that we have
the dancing skills we do,
skills that others must settle for
only dreaming of : )
Thank you for letting me share this.

Beware of e-bay knock-off scam! -- from WR board, 17:26:56 04/09/08 Wed
"The dresses are apparently being copied from original designs. Dresses are made in China and sold at really low prices. Please do not support this operation! Buyer beware--dresses are being mass produced. Same design available in multiple sizes.
If you are a dressmaker, please contact the seller and tell them to stop stealing your designs.
Link to their eBay store with the dresses listed:
http://stores.ebay.com/AirGift123-Shop_Children-Dance-Dress_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ19950999QQftidZ2QQtZkm "
You'll notice also that all the pictures are from the original designers' websites so there's no telling what these dress look like, or if they even exist.
Please take caution when ordering online! It's a shame that there are people who will steal and cheat to make a quick buck. Just want to make sure all the parents are aware and don't get pulled into this scam.
If you want, you can report the listing from a link on the bottom of the page, or e-mail the "seller" directly. If you see any designs of a dm you know, please let them know! And keep you ears open if you hear of any poor new MAIDs raving about a deal on e-bay.
Hopefully e-bay will remove these ads, but until then, please be cautious!

Irish Dance Research - Central Washington University -- Christian Bruhn, 10:02:45 10/30/07 Tue
My name is Christian Bruhn. I am completing graduate studies in exercise science at Central Washington University. I am working under the direction of Dr. Vince Nethery, Professor in CWU's Department of Health, Human Performance and Nutrition. My thesis work is focused on designing a workout program customized for the movements associated with Irish Dancing.
I am requesting your assistance in completing a survey designed to examine the training habits among dancers. The study will help determine the relationship between skill level, extracurricular activities, cross-training and injuries within the Irish dance population. The research conducted will be used to help develop a training manual focused on preparing dancers for competition.
Information will be obtained from past and present competitive Irish Dancers of all age and skill level groups. Ages will range from 10 to adult (minor participation in the study will be completed by parent or guardian).
An anonymous survey has been constructed to provide information on gender, age, skill-level, dance training, cross-training activities, extracurricular activities and injuries. Two surveys will be utilized (a survey for adult dancers, and a survey for parents/guardians of minor dancers 18 and under).
A website has been constructed to disperse the survey http://www.cwu.edu/~bruhniiic/IrishDanceSurvey/HomePage.html
Reasonable and appropriate safeguards have been used in the creation of these web-based surveys to maximize the confidentiality and security of your responses. Participants cannot be identified through this survey¯ directly, demographically or statistically. No contact information or direct response is requested on the survey.
I am hoping for your assistance in obtaining the information needed to conduct this research. With your assistance we can better identify and refine the training tools and techniques to help create stronger and healthier dancers.
Thank you for your time.
Christian N. Bruhn
Central Washington University

Challenge for our Troops -- Tracy D., 07:25:51 10/15/07 Mon
Here is a challenge from Rince na Tiarna (of Buffalo, and Erie) to all dance schools in the U.S.A - beyond would be great too. With so many dancers this time of year spending a great deal of time in hotels for your Oireachtas…grab all the unused toiletries provided for you in your hotel room. If each school could bundle them up and send them for the troops overseas or local homeless shelters it would make a great impact. We have adopted 4 RNT family members troops and have already sent blank holiday cards for the troops to be able to send back home. We are collecting Christmas cards written from our dancers, calling cards, hotel/trial size personal hygiene products, sunscreen, and chapstick to send over. The big prize of this challenge is the great feeling you will have for uniting as a whole Irish Dance group doing a great deed. The men and woman overseas appreciate any products sent. Thanks.
