We will be accepting new entries the day of the feis, all late entries must be done before noon. If you are registering late, you will have to pay the late fees. If your registration was not complete or paid for by Monday, May 25, your registration was dropped from the system. Those dancers will have to reregister at the competition and pay the $50 late fee. Changes can be made to already paid registrations for a fee of $25. We will only be accepting card payments at the feis for these registrations.
