National Chapter of the Year:
Our Carolina Heartland Chapter of USA Dance was named 2005 - 2006 National Chapter of the Year! This great honor was announced recently at the 2006 USA Dancesport competition held in California.

The award is the result of hard work and efforts of many club members, each doing what they can to promote Ballroom dance in the Burlington, Greensboro, High Point area of NC.
We should all be proud.

Youth Outreach:
Youth Outreach
Carolina Heartland of USA Dance is committed to working with youth in the Guilford County/Triad area.

Carolina Heartland hosted a special lesson and dance for youth on October 16, 2011. Ten young people from age 10 - 16 joined in a rumba lesson with instructor Tim Saunders and then had a brief social dance. Young competitors, Sasha and Katie performed and demonstrated a rumba for the students. Next, the students joined the general membership in a swing lesson and practiced their skills on the dance floor. The event was such a hit that several of the participants plan to join in on monthly dances.

Anyone interested in attending our youth events or hosting a lesson at your school can contact Sherri Raeford at 336-601-1768.
