This year Kansas City Ballet will open their doors for the seventh annual KC Dance Day. This FREE event includes dance classes and local dance performances for all ages—even an open rehearsal by Kansas City Ballet dancers! And every year, around 2,000 eager Kansas Citians are expected over the course of the day.
It’s a big task to pull off this event. All KC Ballet staff are on hand over the course of the day helping to make sure everyone has a great time, but even more help is needed. Each year more than 40 volunteers are required throughout the day to ensure success.
“We simply couldn’t do it without our amazing volunteers,” says Rene Horne, Kansas City Ballet’s Manager of Events and Volunteers. “These people give in a big way. They donate their time to help Kansas City Ballet share the love of dance with our community, many of whom have never been to our building, taken a dance class or seen a performance. The energy in the building on Dance Day is electric.”
Even so, with little more than a week until the big day, there are still volunteer shifts available, especially during peak hours of 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. So, we are reaching out to recruit more amazing volunteers looking to help their community.
