Overview
To avoid distracting an audience, NO HAIR BOWS are to be worn in performances. Small barrettes and headbands that blend with hair color are permitted. Hair should be worn away from the face. Small stud earrings may be worn. All other jewelry should be removed before leaving home. No nail polish, tattoos or other skin adornment (temporary or permanent), glitter, colored eye shadow, or any other item which will make you stand out is permitted. The use of perfume or cologne is not allowed. Parents are expected to ensure that their daughters arrive dressed according to these standards.
Music and CCGC Music Folders must be brought to ALL performances, unless advised otherwise by your conductor. Singers who are not dressed appropriately, or who do not have their music and folders, will NOT be allowed to perform. Notices are sent home prior to every performance with detailed information about performance attire. It is your responsibility to read this information and arrive appropriately dressed.
