Children gather in front of Greg DiMiceli, the Ridge Street School music teacher, and dance to his songs with the routines they know from class during the Blind Brook PTA plant sale fundraiser at the Middle/High School parking lot on Saturday, Oct. 2. PTA Fundraising co-founder Alicia Scala said DiMiceli had inquired about doing a singalong outside of school hours and she felt the fall fundraiser was the perfect place for it.
