Carley-Beth White believes “everybody should have the chance to experience dance.” That’s what prompted the Teen Miss Vicksburg title-holder to start Tender Toes, a ballet class for special needs children that meets weekly at River Pointe Dance Academy. Dance is “a way to express yourself and it’s fun, so I want all little girls to be able to do it,” said Carley-Beth, the 15-year-old daughter of Ben and Ginny White. “I wanted to do something that meant something to me and helps other people at the same time.” Plus, “I really enjoy working with kids,” she said.
