    SUBMISSION #:

    As we are migrating to an online system, we will need you to index each Dance Entry Form via SUBMISSION #. We will not be receiving hard copies; therefore, each Dance Entry Form requires a SUBMISSION #. Upon completing the Dance Entry form, you are prompted to download a PDF copy of your completed Dance Entry Form. The filename is automatically generated with your Entry Name, Festival Year, Dance Group/Troupe Name and  the SUBMISSION # you entered on the form- this is the only way to tell multiple entry forms apart. The order of entry submissions has no bearing to/on their scheduling, or consideration.

  • III. Festival Competition Package - The 'Tag' Security System

    The goal of the tag system is to create a safe and secure area for competition participants. The 'tags' allow our volunteers to control who is permitted to enter the change room area where dancers organize, change, and store valuables while they are performing in our annual competition.

    People who will be permitted in the change room area:

    • Dancers
    • Instructors/Directors
    • Change room assistants

    Regulating access to this section of the festival will help assist in controlling any potential problems that may arise as noted above. This system will aid event staff in the security and safe operating conduct of the change room area. This will create a less congested and safer area that will benefit dancers and instructors. The system will also create faster entry into the festival and an easier flow for event staff to control.

    "Tag" Visual Identifiers:

    • Access to the change room area is only by hand stamp (dancers and instructors) and wristband (change room assistants).
    • Access to the rear entrance of the change room area will be permitted by hand stamp and wristband holders only. Vehicles will be allowed access after all occupants have a wristband or hand stamp.
    • Each dance group must submit the attached form of the names of designates and change room assistants. Wristbands will only be handed out to those names on the list. If there are any last minute changes to the list, only a dance group instructor or designate may make a change to the list.

    Hand Stamps:
    Hand stamps are used for two different purposes in the festival; they are applied to paid festival attendees and to dancers competing in the festival. Competitors will receive a hand stamp on their wrist that will be a different colour than attendees of the festival. This will provide a visual to security staff to authorize access.

    Wristbrands: 

    Wristbands will be the most visual aspect of the security system to help ensure the safety of the dancers and property of the groups. Change room assistants must be registered and have paid festival admission to receive a wristband. The festival society is not planning to limit the number of change room assistants; we are simply intending to be able to identify who is who.

  • IV. Festival Competition Package - Group Volunteers

    Please provide the name and contact information for the volunteer(s) your group plans to bring to the festival to help 'Keep Ukrainian Culture Alive'. Please provide an accurate e-mail address so that our Volunteer Coordinator may contact them directly (prior to the day of the festival) to confirm their time slots. Providing an AM/PM/ANY will help our coordinator with drafting the volunteer schedule. The onus is on the group to provide a replacement if someone in your list is unable to attend the festival.

    12.2. As a minimum, each dance group must provide one (1) volunteer for a two (2) hour shift per ten (10) total dancers competing. The minimum requirement is proportional to the group size to respect smaller groups and their more limited
