We are pleased to share the schedule for Saturday, August 2nd! We can’t wait to dance with everyone! Schedule details and notes are below:

SOLO SHOWCASE
Please note the addition of the Solo Showcase on the itinerary. This time slot provides an opportunity for any dancers to perform roughly a 30 second to 1 minute dance (improv or old routine) to showcase to their fellow dancers as well as the college programs. If you would like your song preselected, then please reach out through direct messaging on Instagram/Facebook, or email us the song & artist you would like to use by 6:00 AM EST on Saturday, August 2nd. If you would like to participate, but do not have a song preference, you can select from a preset list of options or let us randomize it for you. We hope that this allows dancers to showcase themselves as an individual before the improv challenge later in the day.

BREAKS
All breaks can be utilized as a break, or as an opportunity to network with the present college programs.

AWARDS
Further information regarding our awards offered can be found on our prior post on this page. Awards offered include the Program’s Choice Award, Improv Challenge Winner (1 winner per group), and Director’s Choice Award.

Additional Notes
*Gannon and Point Park will be attending the event, but not instructing a Master Class. St Vincent Dance Team had to withdraw from the event due performance conflicts with hosting Steelers Training Camp.

Thank you so much for being patient with us as we were awaiting responses to finalize the schedule. We can’t wait to see everyone this Saturday!
