Wednesday, June 27th will be the first ever annual Lip Sync Contest with registration at 6 and beginning at 7 pm! Costumes and props highly encouraged! Age groups are children up to age 8, tweens 9 to 12, teens 13 to 17 and adults 18 and up. Limited to 20 total entries with pre-registered entrants receiving preference. Participants 13 and up may pre-register by calling Candy at 740-501-6144 or register the day of the contest as long as there are still slots available.
All children 12 and under must attend a pre-registration try out on June 20th at Centerburg High School Auditorium. Entrants must come in full costume and bring music with them. Music may be a CD or USB drive (MP3). This is done as a coaching session with helpful feedback and suggestions. Failure to attend will disqualify children from taking part in the contest!
Duets and groups may enter as one act in the category of the oldest member. Entrants who appear in a group or duet are limited to that act. In order to keep event “family friendly” written lyrics may be requested. Committee reserves right to deny entry due to lyrics, attire, or dance moves. Acts are limited to 3 to 6 minutes. Special circumstances require prior approval.
Judging criteria is 20 points for creativity/originality, 10 points for appearance and 10 points for lip sync portrayal. Prizes in each age group are $75, $50 and $25 for first, second and third places and there will be two special judges awards of $50 each for Best Overall Performance and Best Costume.
This should be a very fun and entertaining event for all!
