Ecstatic Dance Event Thank You!

Wow! What an amazing opening event!! We lost track at around 120 people. Thanks to Franklin, Maryanne, Gina Sala, Rafe Perlman and band, and all the beautiful people who showed up, supported us and danced the evening away. This was billed as a fund-raiser and we raised almost enough to pay for the stage that was just built. Thank you for your generosity! Next week join us for Drum and Dance.
