<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Hi all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face="Times New Roman"><FONT>I am sending out an important update from our KCACTF Region that the National KCACTF folks decided to raise rates for <STRONG>associate </STRONG>to $225 and <STRONG>participating </STRONG>$300 shows but those who register their shows for the season PRIOR to September 25th can pay the old rates. Let your folks know. The regions DO NOT GET TO KEEP THE FUNDS FROM THESE INCREASES.</FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face="Times New Roman"><FONT></FONT></FONT></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3><FONT face="Times New Roman"><FONT>Also, any show that enters as an associate or participating member AUTOMATICALLY has the student designers & the student stage manager from that production as eligible to participate in the design expo for national awards. Some schools enter their shows just to get their designers in the competition. The Respondent for the show is only responsible for choosing two actors to participate. Think about entering your shows!</FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
