Fundraising 2019/2020

To participate in Dance Motif, dancers must buy a membership. A membership is $105 for students ($120 for non-students). Dancers are expected to do a minimum amount of fundraising via selling Purdy's chocolates bars.

Membership fees entitle each dancer to participate in 1 dance - extra fees will be due when dancing in a 2nd or 3rd piece. You may fundraise for the extra fees by selling more Purdy's chocolates. All extra dance fees and fundraising fees are paid to Orchesis Dance Society via e-transfer ([email protected]), cash, or cheque (made out to 'Orchesis Dance Society').

Extra Dance Fees (due October 15th):
1 additional dance -> $40
​2 additional dances -> $60
*dancers need approval from Kathy, Director of Orchesis, to participate in 3 pieces
​
Please note, the membership must be paid through the Activity Registration Zone at U of A. The cost of a 2nd dance ($40) or 3rd dance ($20) must be paid to Orchesis Dance Society by giving cash or cheque to your Choreographer, or through e-transfer.

This year's fundraisers are:
