The Royal Theatre Boys & Girls Club, located in Midtown St. Petersburg, is a state-of-the-art performing and cultural art center. The organization is dedicated to the following specific goals:

-- The pursuit of excellence through music movement, visual media, theatre and literary education.

-- Development of character by building life and social skills.

-- Building a sense of belonging through commitment to the organization and the arts.

-- Building one's pride in achievement through accomplishment.

The Soulful Arts Dance Academy, located at 290 Dr. Martin Luther King Street North, offers dance classes in a variety of disciplines, including Kinderdance (age 4) Pre-Ballet, Pre-Tap and Pre-Jazz (ages 5 & 6); Ballet; Pointe; Modern; Jazz; Tap; Hip Hop; African Dance and Adult Ballet

During the Amscot open house event, children's entertainment will be provided. Radio station WBTP-FM (95.7), will broadcast live from Amscot's parking lot and give away prizes. Free refreshments also will be provided.

At the Amscot open house, the Child Protection Education of America, Inc. (CPEA), a national non-profit organization for missing children based in Tampa, will also be available on site to provide free fingerprinting for children through their "ID ME NOW" program.

The program produces a state-of-the-art, specially designed card for parents to keep. The card contains a set of the child's digital fingerprints, a black and white photo, a dental chart, and instructions on how to do a simple DNA collection. Safety brochures are provided with the fingerprint card, as well as an envelope containing further information on how to complete the child safety kit.

This information can assist parents and law enforcement officers involved with a missing child case. An interactive child safety CD-ROM can also be purchased for $5 at the event with profits going to the CPEA for creating the CD-ROM.
