Today's motivation to practice.

We had a massive undertaking today and #teamhooley got the job done! 2,300 square feet of sprung, slip-resistant stages are puddied, sanded, painted, stacked, and nearly ready for the Hershey Feis and Sweetest Feis next weekend (just one more prep step to go this week). Thank you Jonathan (our fearless leader!), Ed, Genny, Jason, Anne, Perelli, Sabe, Catherine, Jan, Debbie, Claire, Maya, Chris, Aslyn, Mr. Matt and Miss Crystal!

Our lively Future Champ class on zoom tonight insisted on changing their screen names to Ladybug, and convinced the instructor to be Miss Ladybug. Meet the unstoppable Ladybug Team!
