NDEO is happy to announce that our friends at Discount Dance Supply are sponsoring the 2nd annual 5K Charity Run/Walk – called the Run De Jambe – with proceeds benefiting the National Dance Education Organization and our work supporting dance educators and advancing dance education centered in the arts.

The 5K will take place on Saturday, Sept. 12th in Long Beach, California with checkin starting at 8am, the race at 9am and a Dance Celebrity meet and greet at 11am. Register at www.discountdance.com/5k

As many of you know, membership dues, conference registration fees, and grants only cover a portion of the costs to operate the organization. Fundraising and donations are crucial to our survival!  Please consider participating in the Run De Jambe.  And if you don’t live in California then please forward this message to all your friends and colleagues in California.  Also feel free to post on your Facebook and Twitter pages.
