 Dancers to Perform as a Benefit to Children web posted December 9, 2008 BATESBURG – On Saturday, December 13th the dancers of Palmetto Dance Academy and Fine Arts Center will present “Need a Little Christmas” at the Batesburg Leesville Fine Arts Center beginning at 1pm. The show marks the seventh year the dancers have taken to the stage to collect toys for needy children in the area. To date over 4000 toys have been collected and distributed to children of families stricken by hard times close to the holiday season. This year the performance is even more critical than years past due to the recent economical concerns. Attendance to the show is free with the donation of an unwrapped child’s toy. The show features varying dance genres including jazz, tap, clog, ballet, cheer and pointe. The award winning dancers of Palmetto Dance Academy and Fine Arts Center range in age from 3 years to young adults and are well-known for their high quality shows that are a no-miss during the holiday season. The public is asked to come and enjoy the sensational show while spreading joy to others in need. As a participating audience member, the public can take part in the studios year-long “Be the Change” mission where the students are promoting volunteerism and reaching out to those in need. So far the mission has collected food for the Saluda area food bank, raised over $400 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, collected hundreds of aluminum cans to help purchase school supplies for needy children, and supported the Ronald McDonald House charities with pop tab donations. This concert has a goal of collecting over 500 toys for children in need. Audience members can help reach this goal and then return to Saluda to support the annual Christmas parade and tree lighting. Admission is free with the donation of a child’s toy to be donated to area children in need. ©
