Congrats to our Dulles South Senior Center volunteers who know how to have fun while giving back to their community!

Congratulations to Dulles South Senior Center for winning the 2020 Outstanding Volunteer Senior Team Award!

The Dulles South Senior Center Dance Instructor Team provides free dance instruction every day in the form of 10 weekly dance classes in a range of dance styles including Bollywood Style, Classical Indian Dance, Country Line Dance, Hot Hula, and Fun Dance Fitness. The dance classes average between 175-200 participants per week from the Dulles South Senior Center improving the quality of life for participants. As an additional benefit, the instructor team has greatly reduced special event costs at Dulles South Senior Center, since paid entertainers usually charge at least $150 per program. “This is truly an exceptionally talented group of women who provide their talents freely to the membership at Dulles South Senior Center.” Patricia Mock

This award is sponsored by Oasis Aveda Spa and Salon!

So proud of our YAC members! Your contributions are making a difference in #Loudoun County!

Congrats to the Youth Advisory Council for taking home the 2020 Outstanding Youth Volunteer Team Award!

Loudoun Youth Inc./Youth Advisory Council (YAC) is a group of teen leaders creating programs that enhance the community such as Battle of the Bands competitions and supporting the Step Up Loudoun Youth Competition. YAC works closely with community, government, and business leaders to approve programs that enhance Loudoun County by supporting middle and high school students. They are also creating and coordinating the first Lights on Loudoun; an artist festival at the Northern Virginia Community College Loudoun Campus. Lights on Loudoun will allow teen and young adult artists a way to perform and share their works. “For many this seems to be a breath of fresh air away from the harsh restrictions of school projects and grades that hover over them. YAC programming is openly inclusive, mistakes and all.” Steve Wolfson

Thanks also to Dream Financial Planning for sponsoring this category and award!
