Star Power - Cancelled

Hello everyone I am very disappointed to have to inform everyone that Star Power has been cancelled. This is due to the lack of entrants in the competition for this year. We are so very disappointed as we had the support of such amazing groups that would have offered training and workshops and opportunities for the youth of WA. I must say that when I kept receiving emails asking how people could get the auditions without having to do the training, I started to wonder at the youth of WA. I want to stress to everyone now that all entrants will be receiving their entry money back in the next week. ( For those narrow minded and petty people who thought that Star Power was trying to rip people off and went to the amazing lengths of having us investigated, well, the investigation found nothing, and you simply made us realise how many people out there don't understand that there really are people who are prepared to work for no financial reward at all in order to help others. The cancellation of the competition has cost us money.) It seems that the youth of WA are not interested in training and workshops and opportunities . It seems that the youth of WA want to have the rewards without the work. That is a very sad generalisation I know and I am very sorry for the people who did enter. We simply couldn't make it work on those numbers. I thank everyone at the ITA for their support , I thank the people who were helping us, I thank the entrants and I thank the people who saw this competition for what it was and wanted to do all they could to help. I am sorry that we couldn't make it happen. Kerri
