I'm a dancer and that is insane!
I am representing Area 10 Agency on Aging for this year's Dancing With The Celebrities event. This annual show features 6 dancers, who have had no previous dance training, who are dancing to earn money for a non-profit of their choice. Since I work at Area 10, there was no question who I would be dancing for.
I have been in training since the end of January, meeting with my trainer/partner Mike 3 times a week. Each celebrity is doing the foxtrot and the swing. The third dance is chosen by each team. We chose the rumba since, as Mike told The Herald Times, I "am aware" of my body.
The performance is May 26th at 8pm at the Buskirk-Chumley theatre in Bloomington. The Buskirk-Chumley website below will give you all the information you need about the event, including how to purchase tickets.
If you aren't able to see the show but would still like to support me and Area 10, you can donate on this blog. Each dollar is a vote, and the organization/dancer with the most votes will be able to return again next year and dance for even more money! You can learn more about Area 10 by going to their website posted below.
