Two of my favorite things, dance and music, are about to collide.
I had the good fortune of taking part in the University of Iowa Dance Marathon from 2004 to 2009, a time I cherish for all your usual reasons: great cause, great people, great dance party. When I moved to New York from Iowa a few years ago, I left a realm of volunteerism at children’s hospitals to enter a world of howling shenanigans.
Fortunately, great people such as Colette Forcier exist. Colette and I were Morale Captains in Dance Marathon at Iowa back in the aughts. Colette would later become Executive Director of the UIDM. Fast-forward, she lands a job last year in New Jersey as basically a Dance Marathon fo’ life pro at schools all over the place, makin’ it rain for people whose lives run quite dry. And now she’s the Recruitment Director of the first ever Dance Marathon in NYC: The Stand. Because of her role, I’m now on the Morale Committee of the aforementioned first ever Dance Marathon in NYC: The Stand. You should click on that link and see what it’s all about.
Now, with tomfoolery abound and causes for glee in trumps, I am pleased to announce Space Clamps will be performing this coming Saturday, April 6th, at the first ever Dance Marathon in NYC: The Stand.
Join The Stand, join Space Clamps, join me, join the lot of us that are making this thing happen. And if you can’t make it to the event itself, feel free to contribute as we dance our way on, up, always.
