UPDATE #2 (2:50PM): Thank you to Nora for sending all of the above photos from Calgary!
Unfortunately no recalls today for Kristen, Reese, Aki and Yuka. Congratulations girls for representing NPIDA with such strong performances on stage today - we know you danced beautifully! We are so proud of you!
I will be posting updates below as I receive them from the Oireachtas in Calgary. Today, all dancers from age U-14 and older are competing. Here are NPIDA's dancers today; good luck girls!:
U-17: Kristen L
U-16: Reese F, Aki H, Kassidy P
U-14: Yuka H
Additional photos from Friday night at the Oireachtas have now been posted (early Saturday morning) to the post directly below. Again congratulations to our eight recallers yesterday!
For those not familiar with the Oireachtas; dancers in each age category dance one soft shoe dance and one hard shoe dance; then the top 50% are called back ("Recalled") to do a solo "Set Dance". Those dancers who are recalled will be officially "placed" at the evening awards ceremony.
A percentage of dancers from each category will qualify for the 2017 North American Championships, and a smaller percentage will qualify for the 2017 World Championships.
Good luck to ALL the competitors competing at the Oireachtas from many schools across Western Canada! Special best wishes to our dancers, who have worked hard to represent NPIDA at the 2016 Western Canadian Oireachtas - many of them for the very first time!
