Toledo Lucas
County Head Start Collaborative, Toledo Public Schools, WSOS
and Lucas County Family Council invited fathers, mothers and
family members to enjoy an afternoon of refreshments, crafts
and dancing. The Toledo Lucas County Head Start and Toledo
Fatherhood Initiative’s first annual Sweetheart dance was
held on Friday, February 19, 2016.
“Over 200
families registered for today’s dance, we’re expecting over
250 families. Last month a basketball game with Toledo
Police Department was organized with 30 families in
attendance. So last month, a group of men, a fatherhood
committee decided to organize this dance,” said Nicole
Shetterly, Toledo Public School Head Start family partner
coordinator.
The dance
area was decorated with red, white and pink banners and
balloons at the YMCA at the corner of Summit and Bush.
