The competition was judged by Jane Diller, Becky Kunk and Eric Wellman. The community dancers and the professional dancers had outstanding performances and the shows were enjoyed by everyone.

The Judges’ Choice Award went to Jen Thompson and David Fennig. The Big Star Award went to Casey Dues and Ron Rindler by raising $5,952. The final amount raised was $37,600 and the funds will be used to increase our programs, update our new facilities and increase the number of youth served.
