  4. Take the first right up to the parking area just before the next lights at the crosswalk or you can park on the street.

• Be ready in costume & hair. If you arrive really early, you can get ready there. Makeup helpers will be available this year. Be aware there isn’t much room in the washrooms and there is no changing room.  Please keep all valuables at home. 
• Make sure that Ms. Wilson has checked your costume to evaluate appropriateness and professionalism.
• All groups must sit together on the mats where the “South” sign is.  Family and friends must sit in the audience.
