Good News for Friday the 13th –

“Tartan Travels”

Finally, something good will happen on a Friday the 13th ! It’s “Tartan Travels” a celebration of Highland Dancing by the students of the MacLeod of Lewis Scottish Arts Centre - and we hope you will be there.

The numbers are being planned, the costumes being sewn and the tickets are ready. So gather your family and friends and join us for the fun.

Friday, June 13th at 7:00 pm

Port Nelson United Church, 3132 South Drive, Burlington
Tickets available at the studio or by calling 905-335-6277

Pub Night a Success

Thanks to all who supported the spring Pub Night at the Naval Club. This fun evening raised $770 for the dancers’ travel fund and will go a long way towards sending our girls to perform at the Edinburgh Tattoo this summer.

Costume Fees

Please check you records. Have you paid your costume fee ($30)? We try to keep costume costs to a minimum. These funds are used for recital and performance costumes and remain the property of the studio. We can then ensure that each dancer has an outfit for the recital, performances, the start of their competition journey and dance-outs. We want to help you save to purchase a kilt you can use for years and not have a closet of fluff that they will never wear again.

End of Term & Summer Classes

The regular term will end on Tuesday, June 17th. All recital costume pieces should be returned by that date.

SUMMER lessons for competitors, or those just wanting to dance, will be each Tuesday & Thursday at 7:00 pm (beginning June 24th) and Wednesdays at 11:00 am. These are open classes – everyone is welcome. Simply email or call and leave a message at least 1 hour ahead to confirm your attendance. Each class $10 .
