Judy Rice!


I am very excited to have our first guest artist in to teach at Company C! Judy Rice will be here April 11-13th to instruct classes to all students. The cost has been divided by the number of hours each student will receive with Judy. This number has been based on the attendance of all company members. I am covering Judy’s flight, hotel, and meals. I expect 100% attendance, as this will help our company as a whole for Nationals. I am trying to keep the cost as low as possible so that we can all benefit from Judy’s talent and expertise. All monies are due before Judy arrives. The workshop will take place at Ballet Theatre of Toledo. I have divided the levels by age and ability. Please check the list below to see what level your dancer is in.

Thank You Note from McKenzie


Dear Friends at Company C,
Thank you for writing all of those wonderful letters at Christmas. The letters really made me fell better knowing that all of you care. It may be tough at times, but I know I have Company C to help me get through those hard times. I appreciate everything that Company C does to make me feel better. I really enjoyed reading the letters just in time for Christmas. While I was reading the letters, my mom was videotaping so that we could send the video to my dad. I think that he will like hearing me read the letters as much as I liked reading them! Thanks again.
Sincerely,
McKenzie
