Borrow Costumes (Winter Recital Only)
As a Dance Pointe member perk, our studios provide costumes for all students to borrow for our winter performance. Please take special care of them, and please do not wash costumes. All costumes are cleaned once they are returned to us. The week immediately after the performance is costume return week. Please return your costume(s) in “like new” condition to Dance Pointe on your next scheduled class time to be signed off on. Thank you!
Please Place Student's Names on All Belongings
Dance Pointe is not responsible for anything that is left behind. We take much care back stage to make sure that all students' belongings stay together using our systems. If students' names are not on their belongings, we will not know who the lost items belong to. Thank you!
