**Remember to keep your area in the dressing room neat & clean… we have several “quick” changes. Keep track of your costumes and other belongings throughout the day.

**Parents need to keep visits to the dressing room to a minimum – small room, lots of people and lots of stuff = not a good combination.

**All food from the concession area needs to be eaten in the cafeteria – don’t bring it to the dressing room. When you are eating, make sure you are protecting your costumes by wearing your windsuit!!!
