Dancing With the Stars
Dancing with the Stars is a contest featuring area students dancing to the hits of the 40's to raise funds for Where Were You in '42?, an intergenerational program benefiting the Heritage House Senior Citizen Center.

Hey all,
I really appreciate everyone getting on here to check out the videos and the blog. Even if some of the voting got out of hand, we’re all here to support the dancers and the program. It’s a great thing for the community, and it looks like everyone is having a lot of fun. I know I’ve had fun getting to work on the videos. Anyway, we’re going to close the voting around midnight tonight. So, consider yourself warned.
thanks again,
scott

Wow! Everyones hard work really showed Saturday night. I want to thank everyone who worked to make this night as memorable as possible.
The News_Journal has really been great to us. The video and voting kept things fun around PTHS. Coverage of the program was excellent and helped bring the community out to the show.
Of course we can’t forget the stars. If it wasn’t for them we wouldn’t have had a show. They stepped up and shined Saturday night after putting in countless hours of hard work practicing. Thank you for supporting the Where Were You in ‘42? cast.
Sal has been a great instructor to work with. He and “blue” had everybody shaking it Saturday. Between Sal and Mrs. Barrett practices were full of laughs as well as hard work. Thank you Sal for taking care of us.
To everybody in the community who donated goodies for our stars bags, catered the food, sponsored dance lessons, voted, and came to the show thank you for making Saturday evening happen. Without your support there would be no program.
A large thank you goes out to Mrs. Ashby, Mrs. Allison, and the Zonta ladies who helped decorate Saturday. Without you those of us competing wouldn’t have had time to get ourselves together for the performance. The decor created the elegant atmosphere we had been working towards.
Mrs. Pat as always deserves a special thank you for always working your magic with our hair. You have an amazing talent that is greatly appreciated.

What a year it was!! I just wanted to thank everybody that had something to do with the program this year. The effort that you gave was amazing!!
I want to especially thank Mrs. Allison and Mrs. Ashby for all of the hard work that they put into the program. These two ladies didn’t stop working from the very beginning to the very end.
Also Mario’s was amazing with all of the food. They provided all of the catering and it was amazing.
Sal was an amazing teacher and made every step a breeze. He is full of laughs and is very creative. We could not have done this without him.
A big thanks goes out to all of the people who supported Abby and I. We couldn’t have done it without you. I would also like to thank Abby for making my senior year one of the best experiences that I have every had.
Finally, I would like to thank you for making my senior year one of the best years in my school career. I will never forget your compassion for others and the times you smacked me for making a smart comment. Luv you, Mrs. B
