Also, THEATER ARTS, will be moved from the last session (Latin) to the FIRST session (Ballroom).

COVID-19 Precautions

• Masks will be mandatory for all spectators.
• Dancers may remove masks when they are ON the dance floor competing in an event. They will replace the masks upon exiting the floor and awaiting recalls.
• Capacity in the gymnasium will be limited to a number below maximum capacity. We are working with school administrators to determine that exact number.
• Friday, each team will be provided with their own room to change and keep costumes. Teams will be asked to keep movement within the school to a minimum to reduce unnecessary contact with other schools.
• Saturday will be comprised of four separate sessions. The gym will be cleared between each session for any needed cleaning and sanitizing.
• Limited concessions will be available. We encourage all purchases to be made with a card. No Cash.
• Advanced spectator ticket purchase is strongly encouraged. On-site ticket sales will only be offered if we have not reached the predetermined capacity for each session.
