MASKS MAY BE REQUIRED

​

All attendees may need to wear masks inside the building. If this is the case, attendees will be limited to the dancer and 1 adult or guardian. Dancers with medical conditions may remove their masks while dancing (have a doctor's note if this accommodation is needed), and then put them on again as soon as they are finished dancing. *We recommend dancers practice in their masks to prepare for the feis.
