Eligibility and General Rules
The competition is open to anyone attending Beantown Camp. There is no limit to the number of divisions an individual may enter except for only one of the Jack & Jill categories. There are no age restrictions. The competitors meeting must be attended by all individual division competitors and by at least one of the competitors in the couple division.
Scoring will be based on relative placement. Rule violations may result in penalties. All judges’ decisions are final and protests are not allowed. Restarts will only be permitted in the case of music system failure or major costume or shoe catastrophe (such as broken heel or strap). Contestants must request a restart at the time the problem occurs, not after leaving the floor. Restarts require the approval of the Chief Judge. Awards will be given to the top three placements in each category. Monetary awards will be based on the number of participants.
Competition Registration
You must be registered for Beantown Camp to be eligible to compete. You may register for NELHC at the same time as registering for the camp. You can also add entries by submitting an additional registration with just the competitions selected. Everyone will be required to sign a Waiver at check-in. To be registered, a completed registration form and payment from both members of a couple and each individual competitor must have been received. Competition fees are due at the time of registration and are non-refundable.
