DO40 2007 Summer Flea Market |

First Time Out is a Winner for DO40 Dancers Over 40 raises over $1200 dollars
And again, thank all of you for your eclectic donations. We raised $1,203.00 !!! Not bad for a first year without very much notice!!!! Do YOU know how many Playbills that is?!?!?!?!?!?!? A lot!!! Poor Ronnie Stratton almost lost his voice hawking the damn things! And thanks to Joe Ahumada, Marge Beddow, Paige Dana, Dick Korthaze and Ron Stratton for donating some high end items that sold! We had an outfit worn by Gwen Verdon in LEGS, the TV movie about the Rockettes, a 5 x 4 framed CATS poster from the front of the Wintergarden, a CATS robe, a piano score from Ballroom, signed Window Cards from LION KING, THE EASTER BONNET and GYPSY THE YEAR casts, DANCIN’ t-shirts and satin jacket, earrings, books, CDs, DVDs, Playbills, Playbills, Playbills. Oh, and did I say… Playbills?!?!???! We really made an impression, and an impact. People were asking, "who the heck are they?" and then, "what a good idea !!!!!" Some people reconnected the name with the organization, and hopefully they will return to the fold! The weather was beautiful, there was an 8th Avenue Street Fair going on at the same time from 42nd Street to 57th (the Flea Market was on 44th Street between Broadway and 8th).
