FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Y SPONSORS MARCH TEEN DANCE
The Grand Traverse Bay YMCA sponsors monthly teen dances for 6th through 8th graders the first Saturday each month at its Main Facility at 3000 Racquet Club Drive in Traverse City. Dances are held from 7-10 p.m.
March’s dance theme is “Shamrock Shake It Up!” and will be held on March 6 as a St. Patrick’s celebration. Teens are encouraged to proudly display green and shamrock apparel. A contest will be held for the best Leprechaun at the event. Kids bring two non-YMCA friends AND wear green will receive a free Shamrock Special goodie bag.
Admission is free to YMCA members and $5 per person for the public. Identification is required for entry. Parents and volunteers are always welcomed to help with dances.
“Teen dances provide a safe environment for teens, and an opportunity to meet new friends, mingle, listen to great music, and enjoy an activity just for them!” according to Molly Brown, Y Teen Director. “Parents and other adult volunteers always help to make the dance a great event.”
People are encouraged to contact Y Teen Director Molly Brown at 421-3568 or molly@gtbayymca.org for more information on the dance and volunteer opportunities.
