Madison received recognition from the judges. Her special award was "Own That Stage". Madison is a sixth grader at Beaver River Central.
These dancers are just a few who will be featured entertainment at BRCS on Thursday, May 14th as the company headlines "Please Don't Stop The Music" to raise funds for the Mary Honer Scholarship Fund.
Rhonda's FooteWorks is located in Evans Mills, NY and will be offering a 4-week summer session at Hand In Hand Early Childhood Building in Lowville, NY. Summer registration in both locations opens on May 1st.
