| 3rd Annual "Dance for One Dollar" Food Drive |
|
What's the old saying about "the best made plans"? Our Third Annual Dance for One Dollar is a food drive for Fayette
Cares, Inc. The date was set for the night of our first class. Flyers were sent out and all the plans were made until the
Thunderstorm moved in. Not wanting to cancel, we thought the show must go on. The class ended up learning while the siren,
right out the hall, was going off. People were calling saying they weren't able to make it because trees were down or roads
where flooded. This picture is of the die-hard dancers that came out that night. Even more canned goods were donated the following
week.

As a way to show support for all of our Veterans, Top Spinners decided to have a Special Dance honoring them. All veterans
and their escorts danced for free. 14 couples were recognized for serving in different branches of the US military.

Every year in Memphis we have the Handicap Benefit Dance to support the Raymond Skinner Center. Top Spinners was the
club in charge of this years dance. In January, we kicked off the fun with the Hoedown for Handicap: Kiss the Pig Dance. Members
from various clubs were signed up and money was collected. Whoever had the most money, had to kiss the pig Johnny Cash. Justin
Russell collected over $150 and had to pucker-up for the piggy. This event raised over $400 for the Raymond Skinner Center.
In all, Top Spinners raised over $6,000 for the center.
