A West Rogers Park neighborhood bakery had to furlough their employees and saw a steep decline in business – but now they're back at full force. CBS 2’s Tim McNicholas introduced us to the mom and daughter who run the show.

A short interview with one of our students! Thank you to Kareem for sharing with us!
Q: How did you get started taking classes at GDS?
A: Having left my former dancing location, I was exploring other Chicagoland studios. I was impressed by both the faculty roster and class offerings at GDS and decided to give it a try. Convenience of location (right by the train and bus, a short bike ride/decent walk away) and pricing were also big draws.
Q: What benefits do you get from taking dance classes?
A: So many. There are the perhaps more obvious ones involving the physical aspect of dance class: the cardio, the stretching, the muscle AND bone strengthening, etc. There are also the mental benefits: my cognitive skills get a work out as I try to remember combinations, learn new skills, and new ways to move my body. All of these things also help to contribute to the emotional benefits I get from dance.
Q: What makes GDS stand out?
A: The good folk, as I like to call them, at GDS are extremely welcoming, which is a huge factor for me... at GDS, you get the sense that they care enough to get involved with who you are as a person and not just as a student/client. I believe that they truly enjoy movement and dance, and just want to do their best to share that feeling and experience with anyone who wants to join in on the fun.
Q: What would you say to someone considering taking either their first dance class or their first class in a long time?
A: The same thing I would say regarding pretty much any new experience – just do it. Not what you thought it would be or you just plain don’t like it? Then you can stop. A bit harder or require more time than you have to commit to it right now? Then you can stop and revisit when you’re more ready. It does take some work and discipline even if you are just doing it for fun. But just imagine if this is one of the things that you get into that brings absolute joy into your life? If you have had any inkling of an urge to try it, why risk the deprivation of that joy? See you in class -- we can learn together.

Final day of testing: Sunday, April 18, 2021.
"PCR test: This tests for the presence of the actual virus’s genetic material or its fragments as it breaks down. This is the most reliable and accurate test for detecting active infection.
Antigen test: This test detects bits of proteins on the surface of the virus called antigens. Antigen tests are typically considered rapid, taking only 15 to 30 minutes but are less accurate than a PCR test. Rapid antigen tests are most accurate when used within a few days of the start of your symptoms, which is when the largest amount of virus is present in your body. Because this test is not as accurate as a PCR test, if an antigen test is negative, your healthcare provider may order a PCR test to confirm the negative test result."

Getting ready for Shop Small Saturday
The Most Reverend James Alan Wilkowski announced today that the 2017 Bishop’s Dinner and Awards Ceremony for the 20th anniversary of the consecration of the Church will be on Saturday, November 4th at the Diplomat West Banquets. The Dinner, which also commemorates the 20th anniversary of the Episcopal Consecration of Bishop Wilkowski, will honor the work of individuals and organizations with the Saint Joseph the Worker Award. The Bishop selected the Saint Joseph the Worker Award because those chosen to be honored have witnessed the example of Joseph – working for the greater good and doing so with love and humility. The annual celebration provides the Bishop and the Evangelical Catholic Diocese of the Northwest the occasion to simply say “Thank you” to the Honorees. Video Transcription Bishop Alan Wilkowski said: “I am not sure how many of you are familiar with the Rogers Park neighborhood in Chicago, but one of things that it did not have was some sort of structure or organization to support the business community and Bill Morton took it onto himself with very little professional training but a hunger in the stomach to provide something to elevate and to bring together the businesses of Rogers Park and thus what came from it is now the Rogers Park Chamber of Commerce.” Bishop Alan Wilkowski said: “There isn’t an issue that Bill and the Chamber aren’t afraid to tackle. The Chamber was the first Chamber within the city to oppose the soda tax in Chicago in Cook County. It has taken a proactive stand to remind the community and the political leaders that crime violence must be address and must be brought down. There is not an organization that Bill will not take time out of his schedule to talk with, and I must admit at times I am jealous of his ability to network he has developed a rolodex exceedingly unique and diverse. What most people are really more concerned about there 401(k), at all sort of things, Bill has worried about the welfare of the men and women in
