Announcing the First Annual Shoe Swap for Studio Forté!
You won’t want to miss this event if you need new dance shoes for your child for summer dance class! The swap will be held at Crossroads Presbyterian Church in the Fellowship Hall on Saturday, May 15, from 9-12. (Crossroads is located on the other side of Shop N Save from Studio Forte, at the corner of Manchester and Oakview Terrace.) This is strictly a swap; all shoes will be donated and given out free of charge on a first-come, first-served basis. Please plan to drop off unwanted shoes ahead of time so that they can be sorted and arranged for the swap. You can drop off shoes at Studio Forte before April 30, at the April 30 Spring Recital, or at Miss Lindi’s house 7329 Lohmeyer Ave. St. Louis MO 63143 during the first two weeks of May. Please donate shoes that are in good condition and can be worn by another child. (No mis-matched pairs or ballet shoes with holes!) Donation of unwanted shoes is requested, but not required. If you are new to dance this summer, please feel free to come and find shoes for your child. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that if you donate a pair of shoes, you will be able to find a new pair for your child. But the more families that participate, the greater the pool of shoes! Miss Lindi will keep all shoes that are leftover from the swap and will have them available for swapping during the year as shoes are outgrown, and also to add to next year’s swap. There will be plenty of room, so please feel free to bring your child with you to try on shoes, as sizes tend to wear off the shoes over time. Please take only one pair of each kind of shoe (tap, ballet, etc.) per child so that there will be enough for everyone. Contact Miss Lindi with questions or to make special arrangements to drop off shoes at lindi@studiofortestl.com or 314-537-0251!
