Today, I was able to implement my platform even farther. I went to the Boys and Girls Club of Murray and did a dance class for the kids there. I was again so impressed that the Boys and Girls Club of America really tries to maintain a good and safe place for the kids. The facility was so nice; it had two different awesome gyms, and three different departments; a teen department, a youth department, and a pre school department. They have one side for walk in kids daily, and the other side is devoted to the school kids from Murray. They serve about 200 kids daily. I was able to work with both boys and girls. I talked to them about the three key factors to achieving your goals and the importance of those factors in our lives to continue on a positive path in life. The girls enjoyed the dancing more than the boys, but the boys were really good at freeze dance, a game I played with them after I taught them a dance. We are working to develop the program further at this club on a continuous basis each week. Additionally, I contacted the Boys and Girls Club of Midvale and will be going there next week to teach dance and introduce them to the Dance4Life program. I cannot believe the response I have recieved from these clubs and these great kids. They seem to really enjoy it and the fact that I am able to volunteer and make their days better by doing what something I love is so wonderful!
I will post more pictures on the next post!
