The stages for grades need to be reconsidered…. If they are even regulation (they seem quite a bit smaller than last year), 3 at a time is a bit ridiculous…. Why not allow the kids to dance 2 at a time and let them be seen and judged properly? Dancers were bumping into each other and not able to dance their best. I’m not the only parent that said this today. Please change the stages to 2 at a time for Sunday.
Do we not have an extra 2 min to spare per dance?

[> Subject: It was so crowded especially for older teens on those tiny stages 3 at a time…my kid went off the stage in slip jig trying to avoid a collision and twisted her ankle. Couldn’t dance Sunday.
