Travel
How do we get there?
In previous years we have bussed together to Edmonton and Vancouver but with fuel prices rising we’ve found it has been more economical for families to find their own transportation.
Where do we stay?
The competitions will often provide reduced group rates at hotels near the venue. We organize dancers into rooms of four to keep the costs low.
How many nights?
Each competition is different, we will provide more details once the competition schedules are released.
