Hello ballroom friends,
Reminder: this week, Latin lessons will be held on Monday and Standard
lessons will be held on Wednesday! In addition, because of officer
elections (see below), Swing lessons on Monday are canceled.
Officer elections will be held this Monday (April 10th) at 9:00 PM in
McConomy Auditorium (we’ll head there together after lessons). Each
candidate will give a brief speech, and then club members will vote for
their preferred candidate for each position. All dues-paying club members
can vote, so we would like everyone to attend elections and give their
input on the officer board for next year! The current candidates for each
position can be seen here
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-FsEieyPIsRpGFS-PDhxWWKUMnJqXLw-CFgrawvbtCE/edit?usp=sharing>.
If anyone else is interested in running for a position, please fill
out the nomination
form <https://forms.gle/a4XLEfhgvTV43Ztx7> ASAP.
We're having our annual Spring Showcase on Monday, April 24th during the
usual social time (9:00 PM)! Dancers of all levels and styles are able and
encouraged to participate. If you’re interested in performing an
end-of-year showcase for the club, please fill out this form
<https://forms.gle/ur3huvbnh6E2wzoQ8> by Wednesday, April 12th!
CMU Ballroom has a tradition of writing notes to all graduating/departing
members of the club, which will be distributed at a potluck on Saturday,
May 6. If you are either a graduating member or willing to help out with
the potluck, please fill out this form <https://forms.gle/oYHuLPn38mAVGKjk6>
by Monday, April 24. If you’d like to write notes to graduating members,
Abby will have materials at lessons for the rest of the semester.
If you borrowed a team jacket or other outfit (e.g., vest or dress) from
the closet, please return it before the end of the semester! (Shoes are
fine to keep.) Officers will be available during lesson time to take people
up to the closet.
Everyone who filled out the interest form
<https://forms.gle/hdTFaNwDR4NR3Wqm9> for the Carnival dance showcase this
Friday will be performing! Be on the lookout for a separate email with
further details.
