THE YOUNG AMERICANS

The Young Americans, who four times before took South Jersey by
storm, return in September 2008! These 40 talented performers will bring the
newest version of their National Music Outreach Tour to Mainstage Center for
the Arts on September 11-13. In the fall of ‘05, over 350 Mainstage regis-
trants sang and danced their way through this impressive three day perform-
ance workshop in voice, dance, and all aspects of performing arts. The event
was capped off by a wonderfully entertaining two-hour public show by both our
kids and the Young Americans.

This year’s workshop will be from September 11-13 and will concentrate on
voice, dance, and performance techniques under the helpful eyes of the Young
Americans and their staff. The workshops will be held at the Camden County
College, in Blackwood, and two performances will be held at Timber Creek High
School is Sicklerville. We will give you a letter asking your school or district not
to mark your children as absent on Friday, September 12 since they are en-
gaged in a 12 hour performing arts workshop, however, that decision is strictly
that of your school system. In the past many schools have excused the stu-
dents attending. In the cases where they were not excused, many parents felt
that the value in the Young American experience was worth a day’s absence
from school. That of course will be your decision.

Demand for this year’s Young Americans National Music Outreach

Tour promises to be great. Registration is only $80 for this incredible experi-
ence. Any family interested in providing a home stay for a Young American
for the three days, can call Mainstage to receive information about this reward-
ing opportunity.
