My short and long term goals for DYC
is to get a grant to help further our
program, and also to obtain a
permanet rehearsal space preferably a
small building to run our operations
for our youth. If God opens a door for
us to get our own building, I feel it
will aid in our company becoming
more effective for the youth in our
community. Also it allow us to move
and grow to the next level.
Talk about traveling with the group.
How often does the group get to
travel.
Discuss the audition process and
upcoming opportunities to audition.
Under my direction the youth have
t r a v e l e d t o C h i c a g o , To r o n t o ,
Memphis, Arkansas, Flint, MI & of
coarse around our Detroit Community
at large. DYC travels 1-2 time a year
depending on funding with the group,
and also it depends on how well the
parents fundraise during the year.
The best way to Audition for DYC is
apply online on our website
www.dycyouth.org or just simply give
us a call to schedule an audition date
@ 313.587.6088. Audition for our
group are year round, there is no cut
off time, but we usually audition youth
at the beginning of each season
August & December.
Travelling with the children is a very
positive experience for our staff and
student. My joy is to see the childern
have fun. I love being a positive role
model to my student. Sometimes I’m
the Mother, Father, Brother, Teacher
etc. In a childs life.
How can parents discuss getting their
teens involved, what’s the fee for
summer programs and the like?
