DANCE
The Department of Parks and Recreation strives to offer a well rounded variety of dance classes for children and adults. Our instructors are highly trained, skilled technicians and accomplished teachers. During the summer, in addition to our regular class complement, we offer dance camps for children that include technique instruction, related art projects and stories. All classes and camps for children conclude in a performance that parents and family are encouraged to attend.
