Concert Dancers

Board of Directors

The Seattle Civic Concert Dancers (SCCD) Board is made up of Artistic Director Kim Dinsmoor and veteran ballet moms, Mindy Gross, Dawn Frivold and Trish Montemayor. Mindy helps out in the office and schedules fundraisers for the Concert Dancers, Trish works backstage and performs and Dawn works on costuming and as Saturday class accompanist. Among the Board's goals are to ensure that the dancers learn respect and responsibility by participating in fundraisers, earning service hours through volunteering at the studio, performing in the community and participating in local festivals. The Board strives to create positive role models for the younger dancers by having the upper level dancers interacting with the younger dancers during class, at rehearsals and during performances.

Each Board member has her own special interest in the Concert Dancers. Kim challenges the students to raise the bar in their personal goals of improvement as they strive to meet the basic requirements of excellence. Dawn works towards increasing communication with ballet parents through monthly email newsletters. Mindy is helping the dancers give back to the community by coordinating performances in retirement homes and local festivals. Mindy has also been instrumental in offering discounted babysitting to ballet parents through the ballet babysitting program. Trish facilitates younger dancers continuing their studies and aspiring to becoming a Concert Dancer.

The Board meets quarterly at the studio. If you have any questions or ideas for the Board please stop by the office or email Dawn Frivold, President, SCCD
