Massachusetts Dancesport Challenge is Next Saturday!

Mark Saturday August 20th on your calendar because you will not want to miss The Massachusetts Dancesport Challenge. This fantastic ballroom event is held at Melrose's Memorial Hall, which is one of the most distinctive performance centers on the North Shore.  Dedicated on Dec. 14, 1912 in patriotic remembrance of the brave soldiers and sailors of the Civil War, it has its own grand organ, dedicated in 1919 as a memorial to the veterans of World War I. The Grand Army of the Republic Hall (GAR) is located in the upstairs portion of the building.  This is where the competition will take place.



A tentative schedule of events has been posted!  Make plans to spend the day watching some of the best ballroom dancers in the area.  Our evening session includes social dancing, amateur pre-championship events and our Showcase of the Stars, including a special performance by Junior Blackpool Vice-Champions Tyler Goldman & Sophia Latessa!

Watch video of these AMAZING young dancers when they performed on Dancing With The Stars.
