A 15-year-old dancer from Battleford wondered what she could do to contribute to the My Community Cares campaign raising funds for a new Battlefords Trade and Education Centre building. The answer seemed obvious. Do what she knows best.
Natalya Shevchuk鈥檚 germ of an idea has inspired an evening of 鈥渄ance, good food, excitement and community service.鈥�
Saturday, March 14, Dancers Who Care BTEC Fundraiser will be held at the Don Ross Centre, showcasing local dancers who will perform in a variety of styles, including Ukrainian, Highland, jazz, hip hop, ballet and more. There will also be a meal, catered by Second to None Catering, music by Marco and a silent auction featuring items donated by individuals and businesses of the Battlefords.
Dancers from throughout the community will be following Natalya鈥檚 example. Dancers aged six to 18 will be showcased in the highlight of the evening.
Natalya鈥檚 mom, Sandra Shevchuk, says the event has seen 鈥渇antastically generous鈥� support from the business community and numerous volunteers who are helping to organize the evening.
Tickets are $35 for adults and $25 for 12 and under and are available from the Shevchuks at 306-480-4922 or 306-937-2445.
Super is at 6 p.m., the program follows at 7 p.m. and a dance will begin at 9 p.m.
