Dear Shelly, Krista, and the Everything Celtic Dance Troop + Bagpiper:
Thank you so much for the performance at the 17th Annual Children's Festival of
the Arts. One of the most memorable moments of the day was near the end, when
families were heading home, the crowds were fading away, your performance had
ended, yet there was a group of little girls so influenced by you performance
that they all felt the urge to dance around the fountain, each trying to look
like the talented Celtic dancers they just saw. Your presence was truly a
contribution to the fun and festivities of the day.
We would have considered the day a success if we had made a difference in the
life of just one child, and we clearly accomplished more than that. The
workshops were packed with children creating; the diverse performances were well
attended by rapt, smiling audiences. The weather was beautiful and the grassy
Paramount courtyard was dotted with bright, fat balloons held by giggling
children with colorfully painted faces. Families came and stayed all day!
You have helped make this day a success. It is with your partnership that we
have reached out and made a difference in our community, one child at a time,
through the arts.
