Bike for the Ballet (B4B)
Presented by Augusta Ballet in collaboration with the Augusta Sports Council
On August 7, 2011 two cultures of movement synced for an excellent cause: Augusta Ballet’s fighting childhood obesity via dance and science partnership. Each sponsored tutu gained one child entrance into the Ballet’s approaching Anyone Can Dance (& Cook) Camp, formed with the Food Network’s number one charity, Cooking Matters, a division of Share Our Strength. B4B, the only training ride for the ESi ironman 70.3 Augusta competition, is scheduled again for summer 2012. Sponsoring a tutu to increase camp attendance is still possible. Go to www.augustaballet.org and click “sponsorship”.
B4B is part of the Ballet’s “Dance in the Garden City” programming celebrating and shaping a healthy region via dance and partnership. Crowning this tribute, Augusta Ballet will present two mesmerizing performances of “Botanica” by MOMIX dance theater at Westobou Festival on October 6th & 7th.
