Pinneberg Dance Group Returns to Germany
On July 9, 2013, 18 students
and adults from the Tanzschule Leseberg dance school returned home to
Pinneberg, Germany. The dance group had an exciting and event filled visit to Rockville
and the USA.
The dance group was
sponsored and hosted by the Rockville Sister City Corporation (RSCC), and the
Finest Performance Foundation, (FPF), together with host families from
Rockville.
The final event for the dance group, host families, RSCC and FPF and the public was a “Going Away”
party at College Gardens Park in Rockville.
The dance group and the RSCC, FPF and host families exchanged gifts
commemorating the visit and the long sister city relationship between Rockville
and Pinneberg.
