Absolutely!
No, but if you don't practice or attend class I can guarantee you won't do well.
The college operates a snack bar (chips, chocolate, water, Gatorade, coffee, etc.) and a lunch counter (pizza and nachos). Volunteers will be running a barbeque. There are fast food outlets at the entrance to the grounds.
Sorry, the hall isn't designed to accommodate this.
North American Feis Commission rule #26 prohibits any unauthorized photography during competition.
"Any form of unauthorized photography which has the capability to capture a dancer’s image whilst in motion, using electronic or manual means, e.g. mobile phone, standard camera, video camcorder, cine recorder, commercial film, with or without flash enhancement, is expressly forbidden in competition.
A professional photographer will be attending and taking authorized pictures. You may use personal cameras during award ceremonies.
If you check on the List of Entrants page you will see that you can view registered competitors by dancer, school, or competition. This list will be updated as the feis date approaches.
For many reasons, we have decided to join those feiseanna who are charging competitors a set fee ($12) to pay admission for all the spectators that come with them to the feis. There will be no admission charged to enter the building on the day of the feis.
A lot of unhappiness can arise when you try to figure out why you placed in a particular spot. How can a judge figure out who is 15th and who is 16th out of 100 dancers? How can I place 22nd if I got an 18th, 20th, and 21st? How can one judge give me 10th when the other two gave me 2nd? Jim Montague has written an excellent explanation. It's posted on the Broesler School website.
