DANCE XPERIENCE 2018 NEW ORLEANS!

Dancers:
We still have a few spaces left to attend the fabulous Dance Xperience 2018 in New Orleans. If you were thinking you might like to come you still have the opportunity to sign up! We have an amazing line-up this year with 10 Choreographers on hand! So many of our best choreographer friends are coming and we are also introducing some great new talented friends that you might not have had to opportunity to see yet!
More information is available on our website about the event, the hotel, things to do in New Orleans as well as registration/pay by check forms and links to registration through PayPal. www.SpreadYourWingsAndDance.com
We are proud to announce that our host hotel for 2018 will once again be the Hilton New Orleans Airport. The 2018 dance event will follow directly on the heels of the Mardi Gras and our hotel has offered us an unbeatable rate of $134 for each day beginning Sunday, Feb 11 all the way through Tuesday, Feb 20, 2018. This rate is good for up to 4 per room. If you want to be a part of the famous Mardi Gras (and cross this off your bucket list), this is a great hotel rate that is a fraction of what you will pay if you stay downtown! If you prefer NOT to attend the Mardi Gras, we invite you to stay a couple of days after the event and do your sightseeing at a more leisurely pace following our event.
Whether or not you want to come for Mardi Gras, we hope that you will come at least one day early to join us for our fun, bonus Private Pre-Party at BB King's Blues Club. Mardi Gras will be over on Tues, Feb 13. Our BB King's party will be on Wed. Feb 14th! All the choreographers will be on hand for our special meet and greet "Cocktail and Dessert Buffet". You can sign up for this when you register for the event or add it if you have already registered! Last year's party was a smash hit and we were the talk of the town for several days! All our staff will be on hand for that party and we are turning them loose to have even more fun than last year, if that is possible!
We want to see YOU there with us!!
More Later,

SUBJECT: WINNING PASSES FOR EVENTS
FROM: Lindy (lindysda...@gmail.com)
I love that all of the events have drawings for passes for future events, etc. Please remember that you need to ALSO register for the event so the directors will be able to plan for your attendance, give you a packet or other information, and know that you are coming. If food is involved, you will be able to order that, also. THINK OF THE PASS ITSELF AS A CHECK/CASH AND ATTACH IT TO YOUR REGISTRATION FORM AND SEND IT IN AS YOU WOULD IF YOU WERE ACTUALLY PAYING. So many of our events sell out these days and all spots are accommodated by the registration forms/winning passes WITH reg. forms. If people just show up, sometimes they may be turned away or even if not, the dance floor is then too crowded. Soooooo.....please .... send your registration in (whether won or otherwise). Thank you. :-)
