The Dance-A-Thon is an event organized by the Battle Creek Community Foundation’s Youth Alliance Committee (YAC). Youth participants will choose a partner or be matched up with one and learn from a dance instructor how to dance the Swing and Merengue. Participants will then dance in the competition to win funding for an organization and trophies for themselves! The evening will be full of dancing,
snacks, and prizes. The event is offered to youth between the ages of 13-18. The event is $5.00 and will run from 7:30-11:00pm on Saturday, March 11, 2017 at the Kool Family Community Center. There will be refreshments and snacks, along with the opportunity to learn about local organizations that impact the youth of Battle Creek. It’s also an awesome opportunity to meet other teens and make new friends! You're encouraged to dress up. Ladies, go ahead and wear a skirt or dress and get dolled up. Fellas, you can never go wrong with a dress shirt and a tie. The music will mostly focus around the featured dances, but we will also have some breaks where we play some music that's popular today. Afraid of being partnered up with a stranger? Don’t be! You will have a great time (We promise). If you do come with a partner, you can sign up for the same team and dance together! The Dance-A-Thon will be a fun filled way to spend a Saturday Night! Tickets are for sale in your schools this week!
