RVCC Dance Party for the Boys & Girls Clubs of SWVA

JOIN OUR FLASH MOB DANCE PARTY TO FOOTLOOSE AT THE RVCC SPRING CONCERT ON SUNDAY, MAY 2ND, 2021, AND HELP RAISE MONEY FOR THE “BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF SWVA!”

This is your invitation to put on your dancing shoes and join the big "flash mob" dance party at the May 2021 Roanoke Valley Children's Choir Spring Concert on the field at the Salem Football Stadium! Fun will be had, and money raised from the dance party will go towards helping the children of the "Boys & Girls Clubs of SWVA!"

We will end this year’s spring concert with an all-choir performance of “FOOTLOOSE,” the title song from one of the greatest dance flicks of all time. If you live with a chorister, you may have seen them practicing their dance steps. We are expanding the dance field to include spectators who would like to do more than tap their toes in their seats (it will be hard to stay in your seat for this one anyway!). So, let’s take a trip down memory lane to 1984 when “FOOTLOOSE” hit the dance scene and join our choristers in the fun!

We have invited the BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS OF SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA (bgcswva.org), a community youth organization, to be our guests for this concert. This organization provides wonderful life enhancing programs and character development experiences for young people in the community. We will use our dance party as a means to raise much needed funds for their local program.

Here are some ways our collective contributions will be used to support the BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF SWVA:

• $400 covers transportation and personnel costs for the BAGC to attend the RVCC Spring Concert
• $20 buys snacks for a classroom for one week
• $65 covers the cost for one youth to attend SUMMER CAMP for one week (This is a CRITICAL need. Each year the
  Roanoke location typically has 90-100 children attend SUMMER CAMP—that doesn’t include the other five
  locations! They are dependent on organizations like ours to help fund this camp).
• $1,105 covers a one-year Scholarship to RVCC (includes tuition, costume, T-shirt, Fall Retreat, Williamsburg,
  required music material)

This will be a "flash mob" type of dance party, so during the concert, you will get out of your seat and go down to the field before the Footloose dance, and then join us dancing to Footloose on the field! Once you're signed up, we'll give additional details on how it will all work.
