Dynamic Expressions Dinner/Trivia/Silent Auction Fun Night

Hartland, MI - Members of Dynamic Expressions - Hartland Community Education's dance program - will once again embark on the trip of a lifetime.  In June 2014, they're headed to Orlando, Florida to dance at Walt Disney World with other students from around the globe!  

The local dance program first sent a group of dancers to Disney in 2012, and the experience was so "magical", many are looking to repeat the experience, alongside some new to the trip.  As part of the "Dance The World" experience, the girls get to dance in a parade in the Magic Kingdom, and also do a 2nd performance (of their own original choreography) on stage in Hollywood Studios.  

The girls work very hard to make this a reality, putting in extra practice throughout the school year after their regular dance class has completed, to learn their Disney dances.  They also are working hard to raise funds for the trip.
