DRESSING ROOM SIGN UPS
Parents are required to select a dressing room EACH DAY for their child to be in. Try to select a room that has your child’s class represented. This means that one of the volunteers has a child also in that room. Rooms are first come, first serve so please coordinate with your class friends to make sure you can be in the same room, if possible.
- Don’t forget to select a Saturday 12/16 and Sunday 12/17 dressing room for your child
- If you do not see your child’s class represented this means there is no parent volunteer from that class and you should select any open room or consider volunteering that day.
- If you do not select a room for your child, we will place them directly. DEADLINE is Thursday 12/14 at 8:00 PM.
We still need volunteers!
As you can see we are still very short on volunteers for each room. Please email tammy.ocpaa@gmail.com if you would like to be added as volunteer to a room and make sure to review the volunteer guidelines.
- If you are paying a babysitter to be with your child in the room DO NOT sign them up as a volunteer. They should only be responsible for your child and we will need to find another parent volunteer for the room to help all students.
- Company/OCPRO siblings: if you would like your child with their Company/OCPRO sibling please email tammy.ocpaa@gmail.com to confirm (even if you already have)
- All official volunteers will be given a volunteer lanyard. No adults will be allowed in the dressing rooms without these credentials.
- Only OCPAA staff will have event staff lanyards and will be allowed backstage.
- Parents will not be allowed to view the dancers on stage from the side stage. If you would like to watch the performance you must have a ticket and sit in the audience. We have 2 identical shows so parents can help backstage in one and watch the other. There are also TVs in each dressing room showing the stage.
