The Sprockettes, Portland’s beloved mini-bike dance troupe, celebrated their seventh birthday at the Multnomah County Bike Fair last month. Now the group plans to train the next generation of bike dancers at their first-ever Sprockettes Girls Summer Day Camp.
If you’ve ever seen the Sprockettes perform you know that they’re a hit with kids. I’ve seen many little girls over the years watch wide-eyed as the ladies perform and then run up and ask for their autographs after the show.
This two-day camp (July 23-24) will be a perfect opportunity for girls aged 5-12 to meet the Sprockettes, boost their self-confidence, learn basic acrobatics, meet other girls, and of course, dance!
The camp includes two days of practicing and activities and culminates with a performance at Sunday Parkways Northwest, where the girls will perform an original choreographed Sprockettes dance. The cost of the camp is on a sliding scale. To register and find out more, visit Sprockettes.org.
F’awesome. Much luck and kudos to the Sprokettes for doing this. Brilliant!
hooray for getting them involved young…
Go ladies!! Way to do it better!
