Champion Team

We made our first journey to a dance competition today. Megan is finally old enough to compete in the United We Dance competition for Just for Kix. She was excited and so was our whole family. The first dancers started in Jamestown about 10:00. They sorted the teams by age level and number of dancers on the team. Megan's team was in the third group. Out of five teams in their division, they placed 1st! A well deserved win. They looked awesome.

We stayed for all of the Mini Kix (4th and 5th grade) teams. The other Bismarck North Mini Kix also took 1st in their division. That says a lot for the awesome coach (Michele) who is always concerned with precise movements and details like hair and socks that other teams evidently don't stress to their dancers. It makes a difference when watching something like 90 teams perform one after the other. We are very glad to have our girls involved in this program! I can't wait to hear how Michele's other teams placed - I'm sure they did well also.

(I'll get links to pictures when I get copies - I can't believe I left the camera in the car and didn't realize it until about 2 minutes before Megan performed. Oops!)

Thanks for your compliments. Our Bismarck North dancers worked so hard and looked terrific.
