2012-2013 DRBC Executive

President:                    Cheryl Smith       (613) 584-9827
Secretary:                    Kari Gillis
Treasurer:                    Suzanne Lortie  (613) 584-9486
Registrar:                    Julie Gosselin     (613) 584-3291
Recital Coordinator:   Mikki MacKenzie

Members-at-large are Connie Griese and Terrilee James.

 

 

Annual General Meeting

Our AGM is scheduled for Wednesday, October 24, at 6:00 pm.  It will be held in the multi-purpose room next to the ballet classroom.

This is your opportunity to voice questions, concerns, ideas and learn more about your club.

Executive positions are available.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Uniform Pick-up

Most of the uniform supplies have arrived and will be available for pick up at your child's class time.  A few slippers and character shoes are still outstanding as well as XS Adult-size leotards.

For our younger students needing skirts, if you did not pre-pay for one but realize you need one, they can be purchased at that time.  The skirts are $14.00 and we ask that they be paid for at time of pick up.

Students are encouraged to try on their slippers, shoes and leotards as soon as possible in case an exchange needs to be made.

New Registration Location

Community registration night will now be held at the Community Education Centre (beside the Community Church). 

Times remain the same at 6:30-9:00 pm.
