Outback Bowl Performance

		Tour Information * Please note: The Outback Bowl Dates have changed! It is now December 28th, 2010-January 3rd, 2011 WHY SHOULD YOU COME? Just For Kix has been leading performance tours for 25 years and is known for their extremely organized and safe programs. Know that you are in good hands and our staff will work incredibly hard to make sure you’ll get the most out of your trip. WHAT AGES OF DANCERS DO YOU ACCEPT? Most of the tour centers around Junior high to college age dancers. However if we have younger dancers interested we open up a division. For instance last year the theme was Beach Party and we had the younger ones do one number in the show (Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weenie) and also the finale. They ranged from 1st-6th grade and were only in 2 of the routines, so therefore it was not as tiring for them. Most dancers are 14 through high school, with a few college teams. PERFORMING WITH FIRST CLASS CHOREOGRAPHY Just For Kix is anticipating the greatest Outback Bowl Half Time Extravaganza ever presented! With your talent and our choreography, we are sure to WOW, DAZZLE and AMAZE the crowd. Click Here to Read More... \|\| ...Less The show will be AMAZING! Cindy Clough, Executive Director, choreographer and coordinator of Just For Kix Camps and children’s dance programs, will be putting together an awesome piece for the show!

Dancers will receive their choreography DVD mid to late November. You will be asked to learn the routine on your own and know it well before arrival in Florida! Scheduled practices during the tour will be used for polishing and perfecting the routine.

		Fundraising Many dancers have paid for their entire trip by Fundraising! In order to help you raise the necessary funds for the Outback Bowl National Dance Tour we have partnered with eFundraising/QSP. It is now easier than ever to reach your fundraising goal. Click Here to find out more about efundraising! Click Here to view our Just For Kix Outback Bowl Fundraising Packet! Our four daughters have participated in the Outback Bowl a total of 5 times. We have done numerous fundraisers to raise money for their trips. We have paid a total of $13 out of pocket. We have done mass garage sales, meat sales, sold Christmas wreaths, ran concession stands, held pancake breakfasts and pasta dinners. We make a list of all our family, friends, co-workers, teachers and local business people. We draft letters letting them know what we are selling and what the money is being used for, this way you are not pressuring people into buying. We personally deliver or mail these letters out. We have contacted schools to see if they will let us run concessions during dance events or if there is another event that we may be able to sell concessions at. We have contacted our local Applebee’s and they helped us set up a pancake breakfast. Our daughters have learned life lessons of setting goals and working to achieve their goal. The work to fundraise is minimal compared to the end result. This trip is something we would HIGHLY recommend to every dancer and their family. ~Lonna Rozinka
