8th Annual ALL-STAR CLASSIC

Saturday March 8th, 2008

Santa Fe Community College in Gainesville, Florida

 

AGAIN THIS YEAR
We will again have some out-of-state judges with AYOP judging experience at this year’s contest! The purpose is to provide the opportunity for you to be judged and receive comments from new judges.
Due to the overwhelming positive feedback from last year, we are going to continue the set system for both Super X-Strut and Solo events as it helps speed up the event as well as guarantee more time for each twirler between their events. As this is still new to a lot of twirlers in the state, we will make sure to “walk” everyone through during the contest.

ENTRY DEADLINE
Monday, February 25th, 2008.
All entries must be postmarked by this date. No entries will be taken after this deadline or the morning of the contest.

LOCATION & TIMES
Santa Fe Community College Gymnasium - Gainesville, Florida
Doors open at 7:30am and contest begins promptly at 8:30am. Individual competition will compete first. Group events will start at 4:00pm or 10 minutes following the solo competition, whichever is later.

ADMISSION & PROCEEDS
There will be no door admission fees. We encourage as many people as possible to attend to support the sport of baton twirling! All profits from the entry fees, admission fees and concession stands will benefit the All-American Twirling Academy in Gainesville, Florida and the University of Florida Gatorettes. Thank you for your support.
