Joined on stage by the band Immigrant Soul, Ivers blends her fiddling with instruments from around the world including the accordion, bouzouki, congas, and harmonica. The original star of Riverdance, she is hailed as one of the great innovators and pioneers in the Celtic and world music genres. Called the “Jimmy Hendrix of the violin” by theNew York Times, Eileen Ivers will change how you think about the violin!

How can I possibly know if I'll be available next winter?  

You can't guarantee it. For all you know, you might be living overseas come winter.  

What you can do is make two personal commitments:

1. to attend if you are able  
2. to find a replacement for your family if you're not 

Both commitments are equally important, and you shouldn't register for this event if you're not willing to make both of them. These performances are heavily subsidized and extremely popular. Wasting tickets on no-shows is not an option. 

You'll receive an email reminder four weeks before the performance (and a second reminder four days before). If your circumstances have changed, those four weeks will give you plenty of time to transfer your tickets.  

Be forewarned that as stated in the Cancellation Instructions below, YOU will be responsible for the transfer. You will post to Homeschool Adventures that the tickets are available. Interested persons will contact you directly about the tickets. Reimbursements will be handled between you and your substitute. You will also inform the organizer of any transfers!

Payment information

Payment must be received by: Fri, Aug 10, 2012 - 5:00pm

1. Immediately after you register, you will be sent an email confirmation and payment instructions from "admin(at)homeschoolrecess(dot)com". Make sure your email filters recognize this address as a legitimate sender. If you don't receive this email, please check your spam, junk or bulk mail folder. Contact the organizer if you are unable to find it; if you receive no response to your email, please call the organizer.
2. Please plan to send your payment the same day that you register. If you are unable to do so, you must contact the organizer within 72 hours to confirm your registration and make payment arrangements. You are not officially registered until the organizer receives either your payment. If the organizer doesn't hear from you one way or the other within 72 hours, your family may removed from the registration list. This protects the organizer from non-payment due to payment instructions blocked by overly aggressive spam protection.
3. When the organizer receives your payment, you will be emailed a payment receipt from admin(at)homeschoolrecess(dot)com. The organizer updates payment records daily. If you've sent your payment and haven't received a payment confirmation, please contact the organizer by email or phone.
4. Please make your payment promptly. If the organizer doesn't receive payment by the payment deadline, your family may be removed from the registration list.
5. If you need to cancel your registration, please do so via an email request to the organizer. Non-payment is not an acceptable way to cancel your registration.
