On Saturday, March 5th and Sunday, March 6th  DDC’s Competition Team competed at Turn It Up Dance Challenge in Lancaster, PA. This was a long, tough competition but we had a great time as a team. Our dancers danced well and we gave it our all, but more importantly, we got to spend time together as a team. I am so thankful for our DDC family! On several occasions I looked to our older team members for help organizing our little ones, carrying props, helping each other during quick changes and they rose to the challenge. We are building relationships as we make memories and those are just a few things I love about competition. We get a much deserved weekend off before our next event but we are looking forward to two more fun competitions! Below are the routines and awards given. Go DDC!
