2. After the Jitterbuggers
Teen Club swing dancers appeared as the opening number in the Atlanta
Children's Parade Dec. 2, we had calls requesting appearances and job
opportunities for the dancers to appear in shows and theatrical productions
throughout metro Atlanta.
3. The Salute 2 America Parade
committee for WSB Television requested The Teen Club Swing dancers to
appear in the city of Atlanta July 4 parade which is the largest Independence
Day parade nationwide. The dancers will be in a salute to our armed forces
number with period outfits and will perform to songs such as "Boogie
Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B" and "In the Mood."
The calls of support from parents,
members and the initiative of many of the young people who helped promote
benefit concerts in late November to raise money also showed how deeply
the teen center impacted these kids' lives in a positive way. The future
for our 10,000 young people in Fayette County between the ages of 12 and
20 glows brighter with the potential to build on the success of Jitterbuggers.
We have launched a search for
a new temporary site for the club operations until the city can solidify
plans. The promotion of quality entertainment for young people in their
own community, showcasing their talents in music and dance, will continue
to be the mission of the teen club.
Many thanks are extended to
the Peachtree City Council, the Children's Healthcare Parade and The Salute
2 America Parade Committee. We hope your holiday season was fantastic!
Richard Thompson, President
Jitterbuggers Teen Club
