HAMLIN TOWNSHIP — Tickets are still available for the the Ludington Area School District Oriole Foundation’s annual Dancing with the Local Stars. The event will take place beginning at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 19 at Lincoln Hills Golf Club, 1527 N. Lakeshore Dr.
Tickets to attend the event are now on sale for $75 and include heavy hors d’oeuvres, dancing and entertainment (cash bar available). Tickets are limited and can only be purchased online.
“We are so thankful to these very generous and brave community members who are stepping out on the dance floor in an effort to bring awareness to the Oriole Foundation, which does so much to support innovative programs and unique educational needs for students in our district,“ said Kyle Gurzynski, president of the Oriole Foundation. “We are excited to share that Pennies from Heaven Foundation has graciously committed a $50,000 match for funds raised as part of this event; all contributions will have double the impact to our band and choir programs at Ludington Area Schools.”
The local stars and their dance partners taking the stage include:
- John and Anita Wilson
- Dr. Brandon and Dr. Christie Riemer
- Chris and Jen Tooman
- Joe Gill and Kerry Newberg
- Rich and Beth Kirby
- Mark and Tonnie Thomson
Dancers and their partners will be competing against each other for one of three trophies: Judges’ Choice, Most Entertaining and People’s Choice. The People’s Choice award goes to the couple who receives the most public votes – $1 equals 1 vote. Voting for favorite couple will take place live and online.
Choreography is being provided by Katelin Anderson, Alissa Bly, Kaylee Malt, Cara Mitchell, and Ainsley Dragun. Kaley Petersen, will be emcee for the evening. Judges for the evening will be Steve Forsberg, Brandy Miller and Dr. Jacob Seng.
