This past weekend, the Laker Dance Team traveled to Louisville, KY to take part in a 3 day collegiate dance camp.  While at camp, the girls bonded as a team as well as strove to dance more as a team.  More than half of the team is made up of new members, so this has been a very difficult task.

The ladies of the Laker Dance Team worked extremely hard and had many late nights of practicing, but the sleepless nights and  every sore muscle was worth it all!

Grand Valley took 1st place in Divisions 1 & 2 in Louisville!  They also received a Gold Paid Bid to Nationals in Daytona Beach, FL in April!

5 Team members were also named All-American.  They were: Jessie Dluzynski, Lauren Gilfillan, Karly Dierkes, Kelly Kerastas & Marissa Capistrant!

3 Team members were asked to be a part of the NDA Staff: Jessie Dluzynski, Lauren Gilfillan & Kelly Kerastas!

1 Team member won Top Funk: Kelly Kerastas!

Pictures from camp can be found in the gallery.

The ladies had a GREAT time at camp and cannot wait for the season to begin.

Thank you SO much for all of your support!
