Recent Highlights: The Fancy Dancers returned
from their European tour where they visited Italy, France, Tunisia and Spain. The dancers performed on the MSC Fantasia
cruise ship as well as a performance at Disneyland Paris. The two-week tour provided the dancers not only with an opportunity
to experience European culture first hand, but also with a chance to see the artform of dance as it was made famous in select
areas such as Barcelona and Paris.
