The final day in Anaheim was a fun one. This girls slept in until after 10am. They sure needed that. Then they spent some time at the pool playing with their friends in the afternoon while the parents had a few cool beverages and talked about the week. That evening everyone got all dressed up for the closing banquet. First was a cocktail reception with lots of picture taking, then a fabulous dinner followed by a performance where all the top numbers from the week performed. Zoe and her junior team along with the senior girls performed Harry Potter. It was also a special night for Miss Shely. She was voted in as the new President of Dance Masters of America for the next 2 years. Debbie Allen- dancer, choreographer and actress- was the honored guest at the banquet and gave a very inspiring speech. It was a wonderful evening with lots of family there to celebrate a great week and final night of the competition. Now the final set of pictures.
Lots of family at the closing party! |
