On Friday, January 20th, Ronald McDonald appeared at AMA Dance & Music School's 3rd Annual Sleepover Party! AMA Dance & Music School, located at 216 N. Graceland in Des Plaines, IL offers dance, music & tumbling lessons to over 500 students! Despite the weather, 136 AMA Students (and their parents) attended the party! The evening began with delicious Happy Meals for the kids; and McDoubles, chicken-wraps and salads were served to parents and staff.

Ronald kicked off the entertainment portion of the AMA evening with a variety of games, music and dancing !

Owner, Ann Marie Frank, is known for events such as this. "I think it's so important for kids to know that they have a place to go that will always welcome them. Our students are always greeted with an energetic smile and kind words each time they walk through our doors. We want them to know they are special to us and by hosting events such as this for our students, it gives all of us at AMA a chance to get to know our families on a more personal basis. We hope we are helping to create memories that will last a lifetime!!!"

A fabulous time was had by all who attended!
