We are now at the point where many of you who have elected to mail in your registration should have them in the mail to us by now. For those of you who don't have them in the mail yet, you are risking being cancelled out of your registration. Remember, the Akron Feis reserves the right to cancel any unpaid reservations after 1 weeks time without any notice of any kind.

Do you know that you can subscribe to our news feeds? Most mail systems can handle news feeds, also called RSS subscriptions. If not, you can sign up for a news reader at www.google.com/reader. Then, as we update our news and headlines, you'll be notified of any new announcements or news we might publish. It's a great way to be notified of any announcements without having to constantly watch our web site.

The Akron Feis does not have a waiting list for any of our competitions.

We are witin 150 of our entry cap. We'd like to remind you, that if you are paying via USPS Mail, you have 1 week to have your entry post marked and into the mail to us. After sufficient time has elapsed, the Akron Feis reserves the right to cancel your registration without notice of any kind. If we cancel sufficient entries, we may open those extra spots back up for additional people to register. If we do open registrations, we will do so without any notice, and those spots will be on a first come, first serve basis.

Please remember, the Akron Feis will be capping our Championship competitions at 150 confirmed entries, summed up across all competitions. Once that number has been reached, we will be closing down registration for all championship competitions for at least one week. Once we have allowed for sufficient time for USPS mail to arrive, we will determine how many additional entry spots we have for those Championship competitions. At the discrection of the Akron Feis Committee, we may open up additional entries. If we do have any vacancies left, we will accept entries until these spots are full. These spots will be on a first come-first serve basis, available only via EFeis.com, and payable only by credit card. The Akron Feis will open these additional spots without any warning or notice of any kind, and also close the registrations for Championship at our sole discrection.

Please note, we've adjusted the cap limits a bit over at www.efeis.com. However, we still have a limit of 1,000 confirmed entries. As always, your entry is not confirmed until we receive either your electronic payment at www.efeis.com, or your mailed in payments within the one week payment windows.

Several of you still have your registrations in a "Pending" state. If your registration is listed as "Pending" then your registration is not complete. Please return to EFeis and complete your registration.

Several of you have not selected a payment option yet. Please return to EFeis.com and submit your payment either via online payment or USPS mail. Remember, you MUST have your payment either postmarked or paid for within one week of your registration to confirm your spot.

The Akron Feis has opened the 2010 feis for registration. Please be sure to read all of the announcements here, and register via www.efeis.com. Good Luck to all 2010 competitors!

Everybody, there are new rules being introduced by just about all of our feis governing bodies (IDTAMA, IDTANA, and NAFC). We have updated our syllabus today (02/27/2010) with all of the new rules and changes. Please be sure to review the new feis syllabus BEFORE you do any registration. It will be your responsibility to abide by the new rules.

Now that the feis is accepting registrations, we have released the USPS Mail registration option. If your registration is pending, please return to EFeis and complete the registration process.

Per feis rules, our Adjudicator/Musician lunch break is tentatively scheduled for 12:30pm in the afternoon. All competitions will stop for approximately 1/2 hour.

The Akron Feis has opened our 2010 registration.

Our Syllabus is now available on the documents page. Please be sure to read through all of the rules. It is YOUR responsibility to abide by all of the rules within the document.

The AKron Feis 2010 Syllabus is now available. Please check for details at our web site, www.akronfeis.com

The Akron Feis WILL be capping the championship competitions, but the number will be a gross total across all of the competitions, not any one competition. The magic number is a total of 150 confirmed/paid Championship dancers. Once this cap has been reached, we will close ALL championship competitions and any unconfirmed entries will be removed from registration.

Please note, the largest championship competition will be danced over on our Preliminary stage. However, we will not know what that competition is until after we close. This competition will dance AFTER all of the Preliminary competitions.

The Akron feis is proud to announce our newsest competition, the Tir Na Nog competition. This is a unisex under 4 competition open to those that qualify. Just register for it like you would any regular feis.

There seems to be some confusion about our feis. Our feis is still scheduled for the same date, May 29th, 2010. It always has been. What we did move is the opening to register for our feis. We had many requests to delay registration until after the competitors returned from the All Ireland competitions. We expect to have registration open around the end of the month.

After many requests, and looking out the calendar, we are happy to announce that we will not be opening our feis until after the All Irelands! We do recommend to everybody though that you please read our syllabus BEFORE registering because we've had to make a few date changes to accomodate the later opening. Good luck to all of you going to Ireland!

We are currently working on updating all of our feis documents to 2010.
