Spring Showcase at the New Middletown Store, New York; April 12, 2025

Not just dance, but we also have singing and a very special Chinese instrument as well, called the qipao. And that's just the first program. After the program, we also have a lot of snacks and music and arts and crafts upstairs for everyone. But first, I'd like to bring up a very special guest who's joining us today. Let's give him a big round of applause, Mary Stefano. Good afternoon, everyone. Sorry about the weather. We have no control over that. But I wanted to welcome everyone to downtown. The store here is also part of a new mill town. Because we have invested in all of these buildings. Welcome, all of you. Enjoy downtown. Enjoy the community. And it's part of the reason why we're continuing. We spend so much time on these who are just overwhelmed. I think it's very exciting to see all the talent, the young people, and the dancing. I really am enjoying it very much. This is our first time, not our first time here, but our first time not doing a show. And everybody has always been so friendly and so welcoming. Very much so. We just love it. We love to come to visit and see everyone. It's very nice. And so, as you notice, I wore my favorite jacket, which we purchased here some time ago. I thought it would be most appropriate. I have my necklace, too. Oh, yeah. So, it's a pleasure. Thank you for your time. And we're going to go back and listen to the show. That's it. Very good. Thank you so much. You're welcome. Thank you. To be together, we're afraid that it was going to be cancelled. But I'm so happy that it didn't get cancelled. Thank you so much for doing this. I saw you enjoyed the dance. They have the musician and the singing. Which one do you think is most impressive? I think all of them. Especially the little girls. They did an amazing job. You like them? Yes. And the practice exercise? Yes, that was really good, too. Great, great. And how do you think it went? It was an amazing performance by everybody. And really, so many of the performers put in so much work. You can see that a lot of dedication went into these performances. It was great. It was something.
