LakePointe Centre for the Performing Arts Calendar 2011

This calendar will serve as a reminder of the dates that we will not have dance, the dates that payments are due, and the dates that we have mandatory rehearsals. You will see that this year we have “cleaning” dates scheduled. These dance days will be focused on perfecting each dance – and Miss Kerstin will be cleaning for us during this time. Please make sure your student is in attendance on these dates!
