SPONSORS

The Celebrity Cares foundation, founded in 2007, is Celebrity’s way of giving back to those who are less fortunate and who wish to experi-ence the enrichment of dance. Every year the Celebrity Cares Foundation Team chooses ways to reach out to the dance community through Love, Celebrity. Celebrity Cares works with an orphanage in Haiti to expand dance to the community. Tappin For Haiti will collect tap

& jazz shoes at Celebrity Events for the children. Since there is very little dance education in Haiti, your tap & jazz shoe donations will help increase dance edu-cation for the children at this orphanage. Love, Celebrity is selling wristbands at Celebrity Events as well. We encourage you to purchase a wristband at one of our events and Celebrity will make sure your donation is given to dance & arts at the orphanage. For more detailed information on Tappin For Haiti, the wrist-bands Love, Project and/or the orphanage itself, please visit www.danceceleb-rity.com. Everyone at Celebrity would like to extend a Thank You to all our Love, Celebrity Donators for their effort to make the world a better place for dancers of all ages, across the world. Love, Celebrity!

Offi cial studio representative agrees he/she has informed all parents/guardians of these policies.Family FriendlyCelebrity is proud to present a competition where teachers and students can express themselves through the many styles of dance. While we promote all styles of dance we strive to keep our events family friendly. At Celebrity we believe routines that contain inappropriate material should be penalized. We realize that there are many different ways to defi ne what is inappropriate, therefore we have selected to have our Celebrity Judges decide what they believe to be family friendly. If a judge marks on their score sheet that they believe a routine is not appropriate, points will be deducted. The more judges that agree that a routine is not appropriate, the higher the point deduction. We hope that we can all work together to keep every Celebrity Event appropriate for our family viewers. Everyone at Celebrity Worldwide would like to thank you in advance for your hard work and dedication to dance and the Celebrity Experience.
