What a great Holiday dance!

* Attendance was record-breaking.
* The music was well-chosen - a fun, eclectic blend of tunes that included many Holiday favorites. The dance floor was always full. Who knew you could dance to a Christmas carol?

* We were treated to three high-energy, wonderfully choreographed dance performances,
* and we had a chance to bid at a silent auction of donated items, including a big basket full of chocolate.

Many thanks to all who made this dance a truly festive occasion!
- the dance committee
- our talented (volunteer) DJ
- the Senior Center
- and most of all - you!

This dance was also a fundraiser for Join the Journey, and it was hugely successful.

We raised an incredible $1000!!

The donation jar collected an amazing $255. The Southern MN USA Dance Club donated $250. The silent auction doubled both of those, bringing in $495.

We thank you so much for your tremendous generosity and support
