work with our students, o The Nutcracker production annually allows over 100 children from the age of 6 to 18 to participate in a full length ballet As you know from your family's participation the majonty of the children participating are not members of our Company, o CIDE provides the training and opportunities for our dancers to go on to win scholarships in dance at universities and other national dance programs In the past few years, we have had three of our dancers awarded contracts with professional dance companies, o CIDE company members have participated in local regional and national ballet competitions Our students consistently score at the top levels, earning scholarships and auditions for professional contracts, o In 2008 CIDE hosted a three day dance festival for other pre professional dance companies from around the Midwest We had over 300 dancers attending participating in both classes and performances Scholarships are awarded to promising and talented dancers Our students are always well represented in the list of recipients and o CIDC has had students who attend various colleges and universities to study dance and then return to Carmel to teach future dancers We applaud and support your efforts and are asking you to help support ours It is very costly to put on our productions in a professional manner To do less would be a disservice to both the thddren and community The CIDE Board of Directors believe getting children involved in the arts will build a foundation for a stronger appreciation and support of the arts later in life The CIDE Board of Directors the dancer's parents, and most of all the children in our company and children particzpatmg in our productions would greatly appreciate being granted funding to continue our mission
