Outfit check-off and fun mock interviews THIS SATURDAY!

The time is winding down and we have only a few weekends left until our heck week activities start!

This Saturday we will be meeting again at the Skin Science Institute in Orem for mock interviews, and we need to see what you have chosen for your outfits! These include: Opening number (we will have your shirts, so just Levis, Capri's or shorts-no too short), fitness pants and shoes, poise/self expression dress, interview and talent. We want to see your accessories and shoes for each of these as well, and we may have you put some of them on. You are welcome to bring all your options and we will give you our opinions, if you'd like.:)
We will have goodies for you as you answer questions! It will be a lot of fun!
Also, while at this weekend's workshop, I will need you to schedule a time with me for this next week to perform your talent for me so I can time it and we can work on any polishing that needs to be done. 
We are getting so excited for this program! We have so many wonderful things planned that we know you will love!
Thanks for your determination and commitment girls! It will definitely pay off!! :)
THIS SATURDAY:
WHERE: Skin Science Institute-1256 S. State in Orem (right next to Sizzler in the two story brown brick building, on the top floor.)
TIME: 10am-12pm
Also, if you haven't received your free treatment from Skin Science, you are welcome to schedule it this Sat. as well for before or after the workshop. Please call or text me (Sara-801-372-1985) ASAP to schedule that. :)

BABY CONTEST JUDGING on JUNE 11 at Orem Summerfest!

I'm so happy to announce that we have been invited to judge the baby contest this year for the Orem Summerfest Celebration!!
You will each get a T-shirt and be recognized as the judges at the awards ceremony!
Please notify me (Sara) ASAP if you will not be available on June 11 to judge! If you will be available, you need to make note of the following info:

• Arrive at the Orem Senior Citizens Center at 8:00 am for a breakfast and instructions on the judging. You will be needed for the judging until 2pm. They will announce the winners at the park that night. You may want to be to that as well, but it's not required.

This will be such a fun experience! Who wouldn't want to look at adorable kids dressed up for hours!? :)
Again, please let me know via email, text or phone call (unless you already have talked to me about it) that you will be there.
Thanks girls!!

DYW Tri-city Fundraising Dance!

We are super excited for this fundraising event! It's coming FAST, so let's spread the word like wild fire!! I would suggest that you girls who are participating go to your principals or counselors and let them know what we're doing and have the student body make announcements as much as they can! Drive kids to the event page on FB or mass text everyone you know!!

I sent out an email about home made, individually wrapped treats, being there to help, etc. but there still seems to be some confusion about the itinerary for the night and some details. So, here is a summary of that info:

1- Each girl needs to attend this event!! Please call me if this is an issue.

2- Each girl needs to bring a home made, individually wrapped treat to sell.

3-Each of you will be participating and helping throughout the night.

4-We will be selling raffle tickets for some awesome prizes. Let your friends know.

5-Those of you who would like to perform your talents at the dance are encouraged to do so!! You don't need your song/track to be cut for this performance. This is to help you prepare your talent and perform it in front of peers! It will also be a great preview of the program and help us get the word out about that as well!

6-We will have a kissing booth set up for girls who want to participate. Please bring a bright colored lip stick to wear if you'd like to help with the booth. You would be kissing the person on the cheek, and we want to be able to see it!

7-We will also have "Secret Stars" that we will sell for $1. These will be song dedications or special messages that people can share during the dance. Our DJ will help us out with this as well.

8-Last, but not least, we had to change the date of head shot pics (as mentioned in my email). WE WILL BE TAKING HEAD SHOT PHOTOS AT NOAH'S PRIOR TO THE DANCE AT 5:30PM.  We are trying to get shirts made for you girls to wear to the dance so you stand out. The "starry starry night theme" is referring to you girls, as our "stars"! We want you to stand out!

Our goal for this fundraiser is to get $1000!  The more people we get there, the more scholarship money you have the chance to receive! There are MANY people who have donated, and given a LOT of time to this fundraiser, so let's all do our part to make it a HUGE success! Let's have people talking about this dance for weeks! :)

Utah Jive DJ, Seth Holdaway, will be our DJ. He is SO phenomenal and you will love his personality! He is excited to be supporting you girls and is donating his time to this as well! We are very lucky to have him! Make sure you thank him, please. :)

OK, I don't think I missed anything...I'll email you all if I did!

Please email, call or text me ASAP to let you know you saw this post and let me know you understand that you need to be there and what is expected.

You are all awesome!!! Let's raise some MONEY! :)
