TSIC Flash Mob!

This was an amazing experience for Take Stock in Children of Sarasota County. For about a month, 30 TSIC supporters have been practicing in secrecy at Wilson's Dancesport.

The Flash Mob was a huge success when it debuted on Friday, August 12 at the Van Wezel Friday Fest.

With all the rave reviews, we will be planning another one soon!

Got Your Dancin' Shoes On?

WOW! What a great first practice we had for our Flash Mob last night. Thank you to everyone that came out to Wilson's Dancesport. We had a great turnout, but still need more dancers. Invite your family and friends to come out! The dance is fun and very simple to learn - the greater amount of people, the more impact we'll have to spread the word about TSIC.

Next practice will be this Friday starting at 7:30 p.m. at Wilson's Dancesport.

See you all there. :)

Thank You Loft Ristobar!

What a fabulous evening of great music, delicious food and laughter!

Thank you to everyone that came out for, "A Night Out at the Loft." We had a blast and hope you did too. :)

Next week dance practices start for our Flash Mob! If you're interested in joining, please email Dana at dana@takestocksarasota.org for more information.

TGIF :)
