CONGRATS & THANK YOU TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED IN DDC'S JACKET FUNDRAISER!
We know how hard it is to do fundraisers and we so appreciate all of you who participated! There were several dancers who were able to sell enough to earn a DDC satin jacket with their name of the front and DDC logo on the back! We should expect to receive the items sold within the next four to six weeks and the jackets just before Thanksgiving!

DCCB sponsors "A Gift for Emma", the "Denton Dance Festival," the Denton City Contemporary Ballet Scholarship for Summer Study, and the Master Class Series.
