Notice: Rescheduling Glow Show Parents Night Out
We’ve had to make the tough call to postpone tomorrow night’s Glow Show Parents Night Out. With only two preregistrations, we simply don’t have the crowd needed to pull off the high-energy, full-scale event our students deserve.
We want to make it right for the families who signed up, so we will be issuing full refunds directly to those who registered. As a thank-you for your enthusiasm and patience, each of those kids will also be receiving a complimentary pair of rubber chucks!
Thank you for understanding, and stay tuned—we’ll announce our next Parents Night Out date soon.
