Dorothy’s School of Dance to Welcome Dance Moms:  Miami stars October 13th
Bellmore, NY – September 30th, 2012 - Dorothy’s School of Dance will proudly host Lifetime TV’s Dance Moms:  Miami stars Debi and Hannah Epstein on Saturday, October 13th.  Hannah, a nationally ranked dancer who has competed all over the U.S., will be sharing her experiences with bullying in her personal life and competition dance.  Hannah and her mother Debi will be available from 1:30 to 3:30 for a ‘meet & greet’ as well as a contemporary dance class taught by Hannah.  The community is openly invited; this event is not limited to Dorothy’s School of Dance families.
“Not only is this event exclusive to LI, I am proud to bring Hannah and her mother to our communities for the positive messages Hannah sends” stated Dorothy Medico of DSD.  “Hannah bravely stood up to her bullying and let it be documented on national TV.  Instead of allowing bullying to deter her, she was inspired through dance.  She sends positive messages to kids about self-image and that it is ok to be different.” continued Medico.
Hannah and her mom Debi are involved in a nationally recognized grass roots anti-bullying campaign.  Portions of the proceeds from this event will go towards the Brand UR anti-bullying pledge and scholarship fund.  Celebrities such as Pauly D, Kendall and Kylie Jenner and TLC’s Alana Thompson (Honey Boo Boo) have lent their support to the Brand UR anti-bullying campaign.
The $50 cost for one parent and one child includes a 45 minute contemporary dance workshop with Hannah while parents mingle with her mother Debi, followed by an hour long meet & greet with the mother/daughter duo.  An autographed photo is included.  Hannah and Brand UR anti-bullying merchandise will be available for purchase at the event.
Space for this event is limited.  Please call (516) 783-6734 or email danceatdorothys@aol.com to make reservations.  Dorothy’s School of Dance is located at 2815 Merrick Road in Bellmore immediately west of Mill Pond.

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.
Share something with your neighbors. Write a new post... What's up? Make an announcement, speak your mind, or sell something

The NBUFSD BOE has not mentioned cutting bussing in over a year, it is not a part of the 2013-2014Read More budget. The pensions and benefits are not regulated by the BOE it is a state mandate.

Eliminating the CHSD is a great idea but it needs to be voted on by the citizens of all 4 districtsRead More . In BM we have 5 set of administration - North Bellmore, Bellmore, North Merrick, Merrick and CHSD . Pensions are a are a state and national battle NOT local

Well for starters, why not give candidates 401K's and only pay a proportion of their benefits...HireRead More teachers and adm that actually live in our district...... Has anybody proposed dismantling the high school district......From the way I understand they have tried unsuccessfully to combine, well then how about saving moneu and splitting up the 3 high schools...This was we wont need 2 administrations...... I will try and I will think out of the box!

You are going to do something that even Cuomo won't touch...pensions? Well, thank you forRead More recognizing the real problem that faces the taxpayers but how will you address the problem and not just promise?

So Lu Scala never had any children so it might be safe to say you have never been to a PTA meetingRead More or a School Board meeting or a budget presentation so then you would have no idea how the money is spent good or bad. I'm sorry that your neighbors make more than you but like anything else you get what you pay for there are educational requirements for teaching and administration jobs, I'm sure you would be happy if all the school personnel could be replaced by minimum wage earners or better yet we could close all the schools after all you have been out of school for 40 years so you don't need them anymore, but thats not how it works. Why is always the uninformed that speak loudest and longest?

A bit of a surprise considering kids come home with a supply list a mile long (and average $40-$75).
