International Dancers Visit Smyrna Unit
Dance has always been an integral part of Italian history and continues to be a thread in the lives of Italians. Each summer, international dancers from different countries visit Rutherford County and stop by the Boys & Girls Club for lunch and a show. In June, Italian dancers and musicians visited the Boys & Girls Club and offered a peak into their culture of music, song and dance. The children watched intently as our guests danced and sang to the beat of a large drum, guitar, violin, wooden scissors, wooden spoon and fork, and an accordion. Some children clapped along and participated with the music.

BE GREAT... Summer Begins

As the summer began, we opened our program with the weekly theme, BE A TEAM. Members of the Murfreesboro Unit were not only treated to fieldtrips, but they also learned the importance of operating as a team. Group leaders ran activities and discussions on team building. On Wednesday, June 2nd and Thursday, June 3rd 82 members visited New Frontiers. They learned the significance of teamwork and cooperation through a low ropes course and enjoyed a high-flying adventure as they flew through the air on the flying squirrel.
