You Made it Better!
The MAKE IT BETTER DANCE, held on February 6, 2011, at the Two River Theater was a resounding success. 120 teens age 13 – 19 from over 15 different schools came out for the big event!! They ate, got to meet new friends and danced to tunes provided by DJ Zero and her amazing team! The Two River Theater turned their black box theater into the craziest club ever!!
All of that was made possible by an incredible group of adult supporters who are committed to providing positive, safe and entertaining social opportunities for our LGBT youth and their friends. To let the students know how just much support is out there, we have put together a list of all those who contributed time, money, food, space and a whole bunch of other stuff!
