Congratulations to the 2008-2009 Laker Dance Team

admin — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 01:01:10 +0000

We would like to thank everyone for attending the 2008-2009 Laker Dance Team tryouts! There was a lot of talent this year and everyone did wonderful! The selection process was difficult with very close scoring, so if you were not selected this year we encourage you to come out next year and tryout again. We have decided to select 16 girls for the performance team for experience purposes, but we will only be buying 14 tickets to the National Dance Alliance Competition in April, so everyone work hard this season!

Congratulations to the 2008-2009 Laker Dance Team
