WORLDAI{CE'98

THE WORLDANCE'98 (continued)
We wanted to jump out of our seats and join in the fun.
Their colorful cosnrmes and vibrant energy was a testament to the fact that we were in for the time of our lives!
Seven thousand cheering fans roared with applause setting
the stage for an action-packed, sequin-studded evening.
During the professional rounds, the audience was invited
to match wits with the judges to determine where these
couples should rank As the dances unfolded, the results
were quickly tabulated. Representatives from Fraser
Community Services presented flowers and trophies to
what they thought were the "kings" and "queens" of ballroom dancing!
The audience roared at times so loud that we sat there in
awe of the whole evenL Jay I-arson said afterwards, "It
wtls just incredible...the feeling when Julie and I walked
out onto that floor for the first time....we were just
stunned...the audience was really in to it. It was great!"
Memorable moments included Bldie Simon and Mchelle
Officer's "I'm So prett5l" number with the mirror; Jennifer
Foster's theaUical ride high above the dance floor; and
lastly, the fog-spewing Harley motorcycle routine that
surprised Bea Beddor more than anyone -- perforrned by
Alain Doucet and Anik Jolicoeur.
Just like many other spectator sports, Twin Citians had the
opportunity to root for the hometown favorites of Robert
& Jennifer Foster and Julie Jacobson & Jay l:rson. That
Mnnesota spirit paid off. The Fosters took first with their
Theatre Arts performance in the "All-Star Challenge" Segment and Julie and Jay took a very respectable Third
Place finish in American Rhy-thm.

A ChanceTo Give Back
Fraser Community Services** was the charity chosen by
Scott and Amy. Fraser received all the proceeds from this
gala event. Their beautiful video presentation on the
JumboTron helped each of us understand how this unique
school teaches, supports and loves kids with special needs.
Amy expressed to us that through this whole process, she
was suqprised at how many dancers face challenges off the
dance floor in raising their special needs kids. "It seems
to touch all of our lives in one way or another. It's really
a great feeling to be able to give back to those who are
less fornrnate," Amy said. "If you could have seen the
children's faces light up as the awards were presented. It
made it all worthwhile," she continued. "It was so much
fun! We can't wait to make it even better next year."
After it was all over, one might say that the
WORLDANCE '!E was aptly named. This was the
dance event of the year by far. Some doubted the possibility of filling the Target Center, but not Scou & Amy
Anderson. Their determination and collaborative efforts
were impeccable. We only hoPe this event will continue
to flourish in the years that follow.
The Andersons have shown us what a thrill it can be to
gtve something back to those in need Our hats are off to
you. Hey Scott & Amy, from what we saw, maybe you
should have called it "WowDance 'i)8"! ! Congratulations
on a magnificent production!

Celia's extensive forrnal dance training in ballet and iu'
along with her years of ballfoom training and
