Dancing With the Local Stars
The YWCA Gettysburg & Adams County announces the cast for its second annual Dancing With the Local Stars event, scheduled for November 11, 2011 at the Majestic Theater in downtown Gettysburg.

Dancing With the Local Stars pairs a “local star” with a professional dancer or choreographer to perform two dances in a one-night competition. Last year’s inaugural event at the Gettysburg Hotel was sold out.
“Last year was tough to top, but this year we are raising the bar,” said Derrick Kuhn, co-director of the YWCA’s sports and fitness department and chair of the event’s planning committee. This year’s dancers will perform the foxtrot and a second dance of their choice. All proceeds from the event benefit the YWCA’s sports and fitness department and operating fund.
Tickets are on sale now! Visit the Majestic Box Office or www.gettysburgmajestic.org. For more information, contact Derrick Kuhn at 717-334-9171, ext. 121, or fitness@ywcagettysburg.org.
