SUMMARY:Semi-Formal Christmas Dance at House of Dance
DESCRIPTION:What: We would like to invite you to the annual ACHEV Christmas Dance at House of Dance in Ventura.  This is a semi-formal event. There are a few things that will be a little different about this dance and will be described more below\, but please pay attention that you must: \n\nRSVP required by using this Sign Up Sheet.\nBe on time – please arrive between 6:45-6:55 to check in at the front.\nParticipate in the dance lesson that begins at 7pm\, and most importantly…\nCome prepared to dance the night away with new friends\, have a good attitude and do your best!\n\nWe will start with a salsa lesson from 7-7:30.   Then there will be free dancing from 7:30-9:15.  There will be a variety of Christmas tunes and will include the following dances: East Coast Swing\, Single Time Swing\, Cha Cha\, Foxtrot\, Waltz\, Night Club Two-Step\, and salsa.  We will also be doing some group dances. \nWhen:  Saturday\, December 3rd\, from 7pm-9:15pm. \nAfter Party: The Dance ends at 9:15 and then we will head straight over to the Collier Home for fun and food.  Please join us. 1379 Avenida de Aprisa\, Camarillo\, CA 93010.  Their home is conveniently off the Central Ave. exit.  RSVP and sign up for a pot luck item is appreciated.   The after-party ends by 11:45. \nWhere: House of Dance: 3007 Bunsen Ave Ste E\, Ventura\, CA https://www.pmhouseofdance.com/ \nCost: $15 per student and includes a 30 minute professional dance lesson at the beginning from 7:00-7:30\, taught by Patricia Monico. \n***Payment in advance is not required\, but is appreciated.  I will be collecting all the money for this dance\, and it will all go to House of Dance.  To pay in advance\, you can use following methods: \n\nZelle (Preferred) bonnieadair@verizon.net or 805-504-6457\nPaypal at https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/bonniemaeadair?locale.x=en_US\nMail me a check to: Bonnie Adair 174 Granada Street\, Camarillo\, CA 93010\nMeet up with me in person and give me cash or check\n\nRefunds: If you decide to pay in advance\, I will gladly give you a refund or return your check if you notify me by Noon on the day of the dance if you are unable to come.  Please don’t No-Show. \nWho: ACHEV members 6th Grade and up\, ACHEV parents\, and ACHEV graduates are also welcome.  Parents are welcome to join in the dancing.  *Please do not bring younger siblings to this dance.  Babes in arms OK.  The dances are much more fun if we have close to the same number of boys and girls.  If the list of girls gets too heavy\, I may start a waitlist. \nGuests:  This is a private party.  ACHEV members may invite guests.  Please clear/sign up your guests by entering their information on the sign up sheet and confirm that they have read the dress code and etiquette.  The information is available below and is also included on the sign-up sheet. \nChaperones: Each student under 18 must have a parent chaperone.  You may have another parent chaperone in your place.  Chaperones are responsible for the behavior and safety of their children for the duration of the event.  Please make sure to include chaperone names for your student(s) on the sign up sheet. \nWhat to Bring: Your own water bottles and your own personal snacks to keep at your table if you desire.  There will be no community snacks served.  We will have water and cups available for refilling your water bottles\, or in case someone forgets theirs.  Girls\, if you are going to wear heels\, please bring a pair of more comfortable shoes in case your feet can’t stand it anymore.  This might be a good idea for boys\, too\, if they are wearing a new pair of dress shoes.  You will not be allowed to go barefoot or socks only. \n\nBe on time.  The dances will go much more smoothly and be more fun if everyone is on time for the dance lesson at 7. Do not sign up for this dance if you cannot be on time.\nPlease carefully read the dress code and etiquette guidelines below.\n\nDress Code:  \nWe do not want to have to send anyone home\, so please\, follow the guidelines.  If you are having trouble\, reach out and ask questions or ask to borrow something. \nBoys: \n\nCollared shirts (button-up or polo)\, long sleeve or short sleeved.\nSlacks\, NO jeans.  This is a semi-formal dance.  Do not wear pants that look like jeans.  Slacks have slits for back pockets\, not sewn on pockets as jeans do.  Slacks are pressed with a crease down the front center.\nClosed toe shoes: Absolutely no flip flops\, socks or bare feet.   It is hard to dance when your shoes are super sticky/grippy on the dance floor.  If you don’t have dress/dance shoes\, Converse/Keds type shoes work well.\n\nGirls: \n\n Skirts or dresses knee length or longer. (This means touching the top of the knee\, regardless of leggings.) If there is a lace overlay\, the skirt underneath (solid fabric) needs to touch the knee.\nSlits in skirts cannot rise above the top of the knee.\nLeggings or shorts are required if the skirt rises past the knees while twirling.  It’s a good policy to wear shorts or leggings under your skirts regardless of length.\nNo low-cut\, strapless\, backless\, or halter tops. Straps need to be at least one inch wide. No exposed cleavage or bra straps.  If you aren’t sure\, wear a cardigan over your dress.\nNo pants (other than leggings under your skirt or dress).\nClosed toe shoes are recommended.  We recommend no slingback shoes.  Absolutely no flip flops\, socks\, or bare feet.  It is hard to dance when your shoes are super sticky/grippy on the dance floor.   If you don’t have dress/dance shoes\, Converse/Keds type shoes work well.  If the girls want to wear heels\, please bring a second pair of shoes that will be more comfortable in case they need/want to remove their heels.\n\nPlease view the visual dress code: ACHEV Dress Code tailored for Christmas Semi-Formal \nBasic Dance Etiquette.  Please go over this with your dancers: \nFor Boys: \n\nAsk a variety of girls to dance.  They are waiting for you to ask.  Don’t drag your feet in getting around to asking someone\, and don’t spend the evening standing around.  It’s not fair to the girls.  The time goes by quickly!\nYou may be nervous asking a girl to dance. That is ok. She is probably nervous waiting to be asked.\nOffer her your hand or your arm and escort her onto the dance floor.\nWhen the dance is over\, escort her off the floor and thank her for the dance.\n\nFor Girls: \n\nIf a boy asks you to dance\, graciously accept his offer.\nIf you stand with your friends in a closed circle\, it is hard and nerve wracking for a boy to ask you to dance. Make yourself available by opening up your circle.\n\nFor Both: \n\nIf you decline an offer to dance\, that means you will sit out the entire dance.\nEvery dance has first time attendees. Make an effort to reach out to them and include them in your conversations.\nNot everyone knows how to dance…that is ok. Everyone has to begin sometime.\nA Sadie Hawkins dance is when a girl can ask a boy to dance.  The boys are to do the asking unless we announce a Sadie Hawkins dance.\n\n  \n  \n  \n
