Today, Stephanie is meeting up with the program co-ordinator at Carver Center. We are working out the dates as to when we can work with the children. Right now, our tentative dates are Saturday afternoons starting the end of March.
Syllabus for "Peter and the Wolf"--coming along nicely. Working on the 5th choreography, 4 more to go! In terms of carrying this project forward, we've approached the music and dance faculty at WCC (Professors Delgado and Robbins) and they have supported us and agreed that this will be an excellent project to keep going every summer. Stephanie and I will be working on fliers that will be posted in the AAB building with sign up sheets for the program. We are excited to work with students from WCC in this music-dance production. It's a lot of work and pretty time consuming but we know that it's for a good cause and know that the benefits and appreciation of music and dance will impact these children for a long time.
This is a link of the piano accompaniment to the dance choreography for the production. Unfortunately, the only one I could find on YouTube that was remotely close was with a Japanese commentary!! Ours will be in English, of course. ;)

Food Drive--The congregation at Living Word Christian Church in White Plains will be bringing in food on March 29th. Stephanie and I will then bring the food over to Carver Center and help in the distribution of it. Carver Center has expressed a need in this area and we are glad to be a part of it.
