Awesome Comp!

Posted on March 17th, 2008

You guys did an awesome job at the comp! OHS has never done a Latin Medley before, and you got 2nd on the first try! I don’t think there was any other team who had so many team members dancing in both the Latin and the Standard Medleys!

We also placed higher in the Team Match than we ever had before. We were in 1st after the Waltz, and never below 3rd the whole time!

Thanks for working so hard and putting in the long hours. You really reaped the benefits of your practice!

Good job on your individual competitions. Olivia is now 2nd in the nation in Youth Smooth (actually above her age group). Rob, Rebecca, Tiffany, Jason, and Tom also did great by placing in the finals!

Pics and videos will be coming.

Thanks guys and great job!

BYU comp tickets

Posted on February 25th, 2008

Because we are requiring that everyone compete at the BYU competition, we will purchase your tickets for the day of your event. We will also be purchasing tickets for those in the medleys and Team Match on those days as well. This means we will purchase tickets for the following:

Thursday
Everyone (both medleys, swing, and waltz/quickstep compete Thursday)

Friday
Everyone except Brityn (Team Match and samba/rumba compete Friday)

Saturday
Brityn and Tom (Foxtrot/Cha Cha compete Saturday)

Tickets are for the entire day and you can exit and enter the Marriott Center multiple times, as long as you have your ticket and hand stamp. This competition is an excellent opportunity to see the best ballroom dancers in the country! We would encourage you to come to as much of the 3 days of the competition as you can.

If you would like to buy a ticket for the day we are not already buying for you (Friday for Brityn, Saturday for everyone else), it will save you money to get it as part of a 3 day package at the same time we buy all the other tickets.

If you want to do this, you have to pay $9 at the school financial office BY THIS WEDNESDAY (Feb 27)! After Wednesday, you will have to pay the normal student rate for the extra day.

This is only for your tickets and is the student rate. Your parents, family, and friends can purchase tickets from the Marriott Center tickets office or online at www.byutickets.com.

Let us know if you have any questions.
