Standing ovations for Parks and Rec

June 26, 2004

We'd like to call attention to a recent wonderful Burbank community

event that usually gets little recognition -- the annual Spring Fling

put on by the Burbank Parks and Recreation Department.

On June 5, youths 3 and older performed programs of ballet, tap,

hip hop and gymnastics -- all learned from dedicated teachers from

Park and Rec. The auditorium at the new Burbank High School was twice

filled to capacity with parents, friends and family cheering on young

people who were getting a serious boost of self-esteem!

While the kids shined that night, the evening really was shared by

the instructors who have worked with these kids all year for this

event. We are proud of these teachers who have given -- and continue

to give -- our children valuable lessons, skills and self-confidence.

When we clapped wildly for our children the night of Spring Fling, we

were also applauding these teachers.

Thank you, Park and Rec teachers! We can't wait till next year's

Spring Fling!
