Performance Top Cleaning THIS WEEK
Our performance tops look awesome! To preserve the quality of the print and to keep them from falling apart, they need to be HAND-WASHED. Please follow these steps:
1) On Saturday, October 15th, take your performance top home after our UIL performance.
2) Read the link on how to hand-wash a garment (click the button below).
3) Read the tag on the back of your performance top and do what it says. When it says "blot" dry, it means with a towel.
4) Bring the hang-dried performance top back on Monday, October 17th and put it back in your bag prior to morning rehearsal.
