afyp fans

Big thanks to the family and friends that joined us for Aiden's Beast performance this weekend!  The AFYP directors and the whole red shirt team create such a great community.  Mr. Donovan is leaving and man o man, there were tears.  He's been directing Aiden for six productions and selfishly I'm so sad that Keaton won't have the same experience learning from him.  He showed his incredible generosity by sharing such kind words of encouragement and a giant pile of old Pokemon cards (nearly 500!) which just thrilled Aiden. He had given all the kids lucky enough to know him a better sense of self and confidence that they can do anything they set their minds to. He will be missed immensely, but someone said "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. Thanks for the adventure - now go have a new one!" So true.
