On March 15th-17th DDC’s Competition Team traveled to Baltimore, MD to attend a new competition called Breakout! It was fun being at a new event in a new location for us!
Our dancers did an amazing job and made us so very proud! We received many excellent awards, high scores and special judges awards, but DDC also won the STUDIO OF EXCELLENCE award! This is such a high honor and made me a very proud director. DDC, thank you for your hard work and professionalism both on and off the stage!
Also, a special shout out to all of our Sr’s who were invited to participate in the opening number at Nationals: Meghan, Melodie, Danielle, Elizabeth, Ashley and Julia. Awesome job, ladies!
