Claremont's First Ever Dance Showcase A Success!

On April 15th, Claremont hosted the first ever "Saanich Dance Showcase" where 181 dancers from Claremont, Parkland, Stelly's, North Saanich and Royal Oak got to perform together, be adjudicated by a professional dancer, and participate in a master class.  It was a positive day all about sharing, learning and celebrating dance. 

On April 16th, dancers got to perform again for their family and friends.  Donations for the Sidney Food Bank were received at the door.
