Inspired by Joyce Pennington, Pres. CEO

Thoughts for today and every day:
“Everyday heroes don’t let life’s challenges bring them down. Instead, they stay positive and find a way to overcome their obstacles. Everyday heroes don’t always succeed, but they consistently act on the belief that they can do something to improve their situations and those of the people around them.”
Noah Blumenthal, Be a Hero

and a touch that never hurts.” Charles Dickens

“The distance is nothing. It’s only the first step that’s important.”

“Everyone is born with a limited amount of time. Every moment we live—whether we’re working, playing, complaining, or being thankful—is time that we’ve spent. Nothing is more valuable than the time we have left.” Cynthia Kersey
American Update:
2010 if flying past at a rapid pace. We are already less than two weeks from Valentine’s Day! I hope that your year is off to a great start. This weekend we have three contest locations and will be live video streaming from North Texas Regionals and Texas All Star State/Austin Sr Classic. Make sure to visit our web site on Saturday to catch some of the live performances. (www.DanceADTS.com)
We are in our third season of offering to teams and directors the USB flash drives with the video/audio feedback from the judges. We had a great idea passed along to us from one of the teams that they uploaded their video/audio comments to You Tube and placed a password protection on the videos to offer their team members the chance to view all the routines and hear the comments from the judges. Other teams are uploading the MP4 video files to their team web site so that team members can benefit by watching and listening to the comments. We hope you find this technology helpful to your team, officers and individuals.
Sincerely,
Joyce E. Pennington, Pres. CEO
