Over 40 students from Miss Cindy’s Dance Center of Southington were busy this holiday season learning and performing several routines at local assisted living facilities, including Mulberry Gardens and The Orchards. The students, ranging in age from four to 15, donated their time for several weekends to rehearse the different dances and were happy and excited to make the holidays a little brighter for others in their community.
