Annual Talent Show and New Team Members

On December 19th, CitySquash families, friends, mentors and staff gathered at MS 45 for a night of singing, dancing, and new team members. The Annual Talent Show is a highlight of the year for CitySquashers, not only because students get to show off their abilities outside the classroom and the court, but also because we welcome a new group of team members to the organization. This year, twelve sixth graders and twelve third graders were named to the CitySquash team from almost 200 who tried out for the program. After three months of tryouts, these students are eager to be full members of CitySquash’s team, and we are excited to have them on board! In addition to celebrating the new CitySquashers, the talent show shows off our students interested outside of CitySquash. Fourth graders through high school seniors performed songs and choreographed dances, and were treated to a song and dance performance by the CitySquash staff. A highlight of the night was the fourth grade class displaying their geography knowledge with the “50 States Song”. All in all, it was a great celebration of our students, and thank you to all who came out!
