Many improvements made to the building to ensure theater patron’s safety upon the theater’s reopening
Gina Korrell owner of 24/7 Dance Studio shared thoughts on returning to live performances, “We re excited to have the opportunity to perform in our home theater again. We have been hosting our shows at the Weinberg Center for the past 15 years and it just seems fitting.” FREDERICK, Md. (PRWEB) May 24, 2021 When the Weinberg Center for the Arts closed its doors on March 12, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, staff thought it would just be a matter of weeks before they re-opened. Now over a year later restrictions from the State of Maryland, Frederick County and the City of Frederick are being lifted to allow the Weinberg Center for the Arts to carefully reopen.
Thousands of people were on the streets of Dalton-in-Furness despite the rain for the town’s annual carnival in 1997. A light drizzle began to fall shortly before the start of the parade, although it did not dampen the spirits of the brightly-coloured dancers trooping through the streets. That year’s carnival queen, Abigail Groves, 15, was accompanied by ladies-in-waiting Hannah Hall and Stacey Birkett, both 14. The parade started on Prince Street and wound its way through the town, which was lined with crowds clutching umbrellas, and ended up at the Dalton Football Club field.

But on Wednesday they got some special recognition for all the important work they do and the extra time they’ve put in to keep kids safe – while also putting themselves at risk for COVID-19.
So Great Rivers United Way, The Parenting Place, and Misty’s Dance Unlimited teamed up to say thank you.
