GOOD LUCK AND GET MOVING!

A little small print, in order to ensure a successful dance. Sorry, we're legally obligated to include it...

You MUST remember 5 things when you register: Your food item, Your pledge money, Your pledge sheet, Your medical form, and Your Permission Slip. Forgetting means you will not dance!

ONLY dancers are permitted on the dance floor, for everyone's safety. Anyone dancing is not a registered dancer will be asked to step off the dance floor. This includes little brothers and sisters

Dance on your feet...not on wheels. No rollerblades, skates, or Heelies will be permitted

The Dress code will be in full effect throughout the entire dance. No tank tops, short shorts, bare midriffs or flip flops (they aren't comfy anyways!)

The only drinks allowed in the classrooms will be water and sports drinks

Don't mess up the classrooms. Don't act like fools. Use your head!

Don't use the school computers during the dance.

Don't bring anything, including for costumes, that could hurt or creates the illusion that it could hurt anyone...no fake guns or weapons, roller blades, Frisbees...you get the idea

Public Displays of Affection will not be tolerated...no matter how cute you think you are as a couple...everyone else thinks it's gross!

Don't use your cell phone on the dance floor. Some of our alums are broke college students and could definitely use new cell phones...if you want to keep it, keep it in your room

Be respectful. Every alumni, volunteer, security personnel, and advisor is there to make sure you have a great dance. We don't travel all the way home, and give up our weekend for nothing....it's for YOU believe it or not.

Stay in the gym when you're supposed to be in the gym...seems like common sense, but this also includes bathroom usage. Keep in mind when you're hanging by the water cooler and downing Gatorade in your room that the time to use the bathroom is during the breaks ONLY

Stay on the dance floor when you're supposed to be dancing. Don't go up in the bleachers, under the bleachers, behind the bleachers....just stay on the floor and keep dancing!

During the sleep break, you've got two choices-- your assigned room or the cafeteria.

Once you've registered, you're in till Saturday night. Only serious medical situations should cause you to go home early. Many people donated a lot of money in the expectation that you are going to dance for 28 hours. By taking their money, you promise them 28 hours. If you should have a serious medical situation, and are sent home, you may not return as a Dancer

If any of these rules are broken, you may be fortunate to receive a verbal warning. You can be removed from the dance should you continue to have a hard time following these rules.
