Time really does fly when you're having fun. C.C.S has so many fun events coming up. Starting with Tucson Meet yourself/ Festival of Schools. We have been hard at work learning new breaks, rhythms, and songs. One of which was written by our very own director Mr. Alfie.
Richard Noel, band leader of Sticks and Fingers a local group and board member of Tucson Meet Yourself, came to teach and work with our group. He taught us a fun Caribbean rhythm. Richard has invited C.C.S. to join him for a Caribbean Parade at this year's Tucson Meet Yourself. The parade will take place on Saturday October 15th @ 7:00pm followed by a performance at the Tucson Convention Center, with C.C.S. joining in on the finale.
That is not all that C.C.S. is participating in the Festival of Schools being held during Tucson Meet Yourself Event On Saturday October 15th @ 1:55. We will be performing on the TUSD stage by the TCC Arena, C.C.S. will be particticing in the Move Your Body flash workout and finish up with a performance.
The following week we will putting on a fun performance at the Tucson Childrens Museum. The performance will take place on Sunday October 23rd at 1:00pm. This is the 3rd time C.C.S has been invited to participate in an event at the Museum. The kids are really excited to go back!
Besides rehearsing for upcoming performances. Our kids have started working on our new belt systems. Most of the kids have already earned their white belts. We are really proud of them for working really hard. In order to earn a belt, the students show responsibility by bringing their materials to weekly rehearsals, they participate and work on music provided by Mr. Alfie, our younger group shows they have learned a dance taught by Ms. Lupe.
Its brings us great joy to annouce that C.C.S. grows more and more each week. We are up to almost 50 students signed up. So exciting to know that kids are really enjoying what we are doing.
We invite you all to come out and support our kids as well as join in all the fun!!
