CT Tigers Transform Disabilities into Abilities
May 7th, 2013
The Connecticut Tigers is a special-needs Winter Guard Program. Funded by Area Cooperative Educational Services (ACES), the group is comprised of participants from throughout New Haven County. Currently in its eighth season, the Connecticut Tigers perform at a variety of events. “The group works together with buddies to learn a routine and perform. Every Monday evening, from early December through the end of the Guard season, 24 people gather to share their skills, their enthusiasm, and their dreams. This show is a culmination of these evenings where ‘disabilities’ are transformed into abilities,” shared Erika Forte, director of the Connecticut Tigers and principal of ACES Mill Road School. Two of the Tigers, Ashley Andrews and Alicia Kramer, are from Hamden. George Woliver is from Wallingford.
