Dear Friends,

From a very grateful organization and on behalf of our board of
directors and the more than 5,100 dancer-clients we have served
throughout the USA, thank you so much for being a part of this year's
26th Anniversary Jubilee, A HALLOWEEN THRILLER, A Dance Celebration
of Ghouls, Ghosts, Vampires & Wilis, presented by Rolex, last night.

From the arrival of our patrons at the beautifully renovated New York
City Center, including our 26th Anniversary Chairs, Michele Herbert,
Anka K. Palitz and Stewart Wicht; to the curtain going up on the
amazing Bebe Neuwirth with friends plus the National Dance Institute
kids performing Michael Jackson's masterpiece THRILLER; to our
esteemed Career Transition For Dancers' awards presented by Broadway
superstar Chita Rivera to Victor Elmaleh, Nancy MacMillan, Michele
Riggi and the National Museum of Dance; the 2011 Rolex Dance Award
being presented to Nigel Lythgoe by Judith Jamison; and closing with
our grand finale--the Masquerade Supper with the Stars at the
Hilton's Grand Ballroom, concept and design by our dinner chair
Janice Becker; and the 13 fantastic live auction lots created by Ann
Van Ness and her committee that raised $110,000; and music for
dancing 'til the witching hour provided by our DJ, Super Dave; it was
such a memorable night!

Your efforts and belief in our mission helped to raise a grand total
of $1,106,583, more than $100,000 more than our original fundraising
goal.

Congratulations to everyone for your continued annual support of our
vital scholarships, programs and services to assist our
dancer-clients in their time of need.

Our best wishes to everyone for the up coming holidays.

Warm regards,

Alexander DubÉ, Executive Director

Transitioning Then & Now

The following is an excerpt from our blog -
http://cts.vresp.com/c/?CareerTransitionForD/626544a3aa/1f5d2278c5/ee9343eb7f . Patricia shared her story on stage at the 26th Anniversary Jubilee
on October 31.

Story by Patricia Cody, Dancer-Client

It has been almost two decades since I first walked in the door of
Career Transition For Dancers.  Career-wise, those two decades have
seen me through three years at New York Law School, graduating first
in my class, landing my first attorney job at Sullivan & Cromwell,
paying back my law school loans, and years of law firm practice
predominantly as an employment and labor litigator.  One year a go, a
big transition in my legal career occurred  when I became General
Counsel for TheraCare of New York, Inc., an education and health
services provider company to special needs children in the tri-state
area.

If anyone had told me during my years as a dancer and performer that
this would be the career path I would eventually take, I would have
been the first one to insist that they were mistaken.  From the age
of four, my life essentially revolved around dance - dance classes,
recitals, dreams of performing in musical comedy theater, and of
course, on Broadway.

So, one might ask what happened to change all this?  My answer would
be two-fold.

First, I achieved the performing goals I set for myself and had
reached a time in my life when I was ready to chart a new career
path.  Secondly, and most importantly, I learned about Career
Transition For Dancers, enrolled in the free one-one career
counseling program, and gained invaluable assistance from my
excellent career counselor, Elizabeth Campbell.
