Cheryl Burke, dancing master of “Dancing with the Stars” appears in a story in the holiday extra edition of People Magazine this month. She’s the first one quoted in a story about celebrity memories of the holidays. Cheryl tells the nation (or at least all the mag readers) about her fond memories volunteering each Christmas at Little House as part of her cherished family tradition, along with her Peninsula Volunteer mom, Sherri Burke.

We aren’t allowed to reprint their article here, so you’ll just have to find the magazine or check their website if you’re curious.

We CAN tell you that Cheryl’s dance studio has a large ad in our January Little House News, which will be posted on our website shortly.

Thank you Cheryl. You’re a good friend, a good person and a really GREAT dancer!

Tuesday Dec. 20th from 2 – 4pm 

Hot cocoa, cookies and a cozy fireplace set the scene for holiday fun.

We will be joined by Music Therapist Chance Selinger, who will provide music.

The Café is a place where everyone can be themselves, share experiences, and learn from one another. It is a warm and inviting atmosphere that nurtures friendship and mutual support. It is welcoming to both those with dementia and their caregivers. There’s no agenda, only the opportunity to socialize and enjoy a day out in a creative environment.

Feel free to stop in, have coffee and pastries and become part of this growing movement.

For more information, call Julie Scales at (650) 326-2025, ext. 229.

Class Days and Times: 3rd Tuesday of every month, 2 – 4 PM ▪ Dec 20, Jan 17, Feb 21, March 20
Location: Little House, The Roslyn G. Morris Activity Center
800 Middle Ave., Menlo Park, CA 94025
Cost: FREE, donations gladly accepted
