    Linda Regulbuto, owner and artistic director of Grossi Dance and Performing Arts Academy, Vernon, is a six-year breast cancer survivor. On Monday, she and 30 academy members, ages 4 to 88, entertained staff and patients in the Karl J. Krapek, Sr. Comprehensive Women's Health Center with tap and dance routines.

    The group held a fundraiser in October for Breast Cancer Awareness month called "Pennies for Pirouettes."  They performed over 10,000 pirouettes and the Academy matched their donation for a total gift of $206.  

    In addition, they each penned special valentine’s messages for the patients.  We are grateful they chose to visit Saint Francis on their vacation day to spread some cheer.
