We are hoping to borrow a dress for Gilly for the Maine State Feis this weekend. She has outgrown her Duffin school dress and we have not been able to find a used Bracken dress that fits. If anyone has a bigger Duffin-Murphy (she's ~ a size 14-16), a used Bracken Dress that's larger (she didn't try them all so maybe there's one there that'll fit) - we would greatly appreciate it. Hopefully we'll get one made but there hasn't been any orders for new ones yet. She is at the studio all week this week @ the workshop so we could try it on/pick-it up there. Thanks so much - Emily

Hey everyone!

I am involved in a club at Exeter High School called Schools for Schools. This group is associated with the program Invisble Children. We are sponsoring a book drive to support the Keyo Secondary School (KSS) in Northern Uganda, Africa. This school has suffered tremendous losses due to the fact that it was in the middle of a rebel war zone. The books are sold through an agency that then doantes the proceeds to KSS. The money is used to purchase the proper school books for the KSS students. Only books with an ISBN can be collected for this fundraiser (the number is usually found on the back cover of the book).

There will be a collection box in the sudio starting Friday December 5th.

I am confident that the Bracken families will be able to help! I really appreciate everyones's effort!

Thank you,
Marjorie Allen

Hi~

Just checking to see if anyone else is going to this Feis, and/or if you've received your Competitor Numbers in the mail? We sent a SASE, and haven't seen anything yet. There is no schedule or Competitor list up, either, so there is no way of knowing if she made the cut-off. Oh, and no check cashed yet, either.

I'd just like to know so we can make our plans for the day....

Thanks so much~

Just a reminder to please turn in your Yankee Candle fundraising orders by next Tuesday the 21st (at the latest). We will have a box or basket at the studio starting Saturday for you to put them in. (If you are there before then, just put your order in the little black "Bracken Booster Group" box.) Thank you to everyone for participating!

Also, a reminder of our next Bracken Parents Booster Group meeting-- also next Tuesday, Oct. 21st at 7:00 pm at the studio. Please join us!

Hi. My daughter has been out of step dancing for the past year and we have a few items, if anyone is interested. There are 3 pairs of shoes: hard shoes size 2 1/2 , and soft shoes size 13 and 2. We also have a size 8 school dress.It's the one with the logo across the chest and the lace collar. I think it was the "middle" style, if I remember. I think we paid about $130. or so. The shawl and headband are with it. I don't know if you have any day set up where you are buying/selling items or if they can be left at the school for anyone to see? I'd be happy to hear from someone. Thanks!

Thanks to those who were able to attend our first booster group meeting of the year. For those who couldn't make it, the minutes will be posted on our bulletin board at the studio.

We'll be starting our Yankee Candle fundraiser on October 6th. It will run for two weeks, and we encourage every Bracken family to participate--small and large orders are welcome! The catalog is really good this year, with lots of ideas for holiday gifts and decorations.

Also, we'll be having our annual Christmas party again in December-- we'll post the date as soon as we can confirm it with the Elks club.

Next meeting is Tuesday, October 21st at 7pm.

Greetings from California. My daughter danced for Tom out here for three years but quit earlier this summer and I am left with two school dresses. These dresses are both beautiful and in excellent condition with no odor or stains. The measurements follow:

The first one: Chest 31 1/2"; Sleeve length 20 1/2"; bodice length 14"; waist 29"; skirt length 17". Comes with headpiece, cape, hand crocheted collar, and bloomers. Price $300

The second one: Chest 33"; sleeve length 24"; waist 27"; bodice length 14"; skirt length 16". Comes with headpiece, cape, hand croched collar, stay-dry lining in the bodice, air vents under cape, and bloomers. Price $550.

Please contact me for photos or any other questions. Shipping should be an additional $25 approx.

Thank you!

For those who are interested in attending the Torrington (CT)feis, I finally found the syllabus this morning. If you go to the Peter Smith web site and click directly on Torrington Feis, it will take you directly to their feis page. There is a syllabus, entry form, and estimated schedule.

This year's feis is two days, October 11th & 12th. It is in a new location (Burlington, CT). Saturday is some prelims and all grade solos (AB,Nov&PW). Sunday is some prelims and all opens.

Most gently used soft shoes go for 20 to 25 and hard shoes 50 to 75, depending on the wear. If you have a question on how much to charge, please email me.

Hi~

Just thought I'd see if anyone has some sz 4 hard shoes for a reasonable price? Rebecca had a sudden growth spurt, and isn't looking forward to dancing at the Worcester Feis tomorrow in her 3.5's...

If you have a pair and are close to Haverhill, give me a shout!

Thanks~

Hi Everyone
I'm looking for a dress for another girl at my old school :) I think there might be a few out there so if you could help out that would be great. She wears a girl's size 12, is 4'10 and very slender. She dances at the novice/prizewinner level. Some other measurements are;
Waist: 24.5
bust: 27.5
neck to waist: 10.5
sleeve: 22
Shoulder to shoulder: 14.5
I will be at the studio on Tuesday night from 6-8 so if you have anything that might work just drop it by and have a price in mind. We can bring it up for her to try on.
Thanks!!
