May 2000

- The Canadian Closed Amateur 10 Dances Championship will occur, in 2001, still at Calgary but in the Alberta Challenge Cup in August at the new Alain's and Anik's competition. They will also have the Canadian Junior Open Championship. It will be very big for a first competition!!!!!

- A surprising new match is just annoncing this week. It is Jean-Philippe Milot and Claudia Primeau. They will probably dance in amateur in September. Good Luck for this match.

- Isabelle Énault and Jacques Fortin dance now together. They will dance in pre-amateur next semester. We hope that they will do good.

- Michael Zawada & Diana Rosonova went to the World Youth 10 Dances Championship in Austria. They are placed in 23rd place. It is pretty good for a first participation in a World Championship. Congratulations!!

- We just receive a bad news from "Burn the floor". They are in bankrupt. After, they did a triumph in Australia and in Europe, they didn't sell enought tickets in United States. It is very desolate because it was very good. We hope that another project will raise soon.

- In August 2001, we will have a new competition in our calendar. It is from Alain Doucet and Anik Jolicoeur. It will be at Calgary in the Westin Hotel, the 9th, 10th and 11th of August. The name will be Alberta Challenge Cup.
