Performances
This year’s number is The Way You Look Tonight
It is the first number after intermission.
Each father/daughter couple will skate in one ice show performance (Friday, Saturday or Sunday).
If there is more than one daughter in a family, to help keep choreography simple, fathers may skate with only one daughter in a given show. You will be contacted soon about your show preference(s).

This rehearsal is where the choreography for the show will be learned. It is required for both fathers and daughters.
