Can't get around it--the week of Thanksgiving has an undeniable food motif. Quick nods to the all-important topics of side items and pie choices and the merch available at dance comps, we run down Competition Weekend 2 at Deerfield and Mundelein. The pros and cons of splitting the day between classes with separate awards ceremonies, 2A as the heart of Illinois Dance, and the upside to awarding trophies by team instead of routine (and the way obvious solution that makes the problem moot). We note the breakout performances that are setting up good seasons for a lot of up-and-coming teams, and wrap with dance team names in the R to So range! No room for dessert this time.
