CPDSA at the First Annual Dance Parade







The CPDSA is proud to announce that we have been invited to participate in the First Annual Dance Parade, to be held on May 19, 2007. This date coincides with the annual Aids Day Parade when we are preempted from the Park.

So, this is an opportunity for us not only to be participants in an historic event, it also gives us a chance to skate on that weekend.

To sign up please go to:www.danceparade.org - On their home page, click on: JOIN THE PARADE!

On that page, under DANCE WITH US - fill out your name & e-mail address, scroll down to Type of dance: - hit the arrow, scroll to & select: "Roller Disco" - next, go to - Dancing with: - hit the arrow, scroll to & select: Roller Disco: Central Park Dance Skaters

It sounds complicated, but it is quite easy, we must register ahead of time in order to share in funds for float building and other financial support.

Enroll now to get us a good spot in the parade.
