QCDC "Back to School Bash"

On Friday, August 14, Queen City Dancing Queen had a "Back to School Bash" to collect school supplies for local school children whose parents can't afford to buy school supplies. It was a huge success.
Pam, Jenny Noto, and me!
There were 70+ people there. We did 20 minutes each of Urban Shimmy (belly dancing), Hit It (kick boxing), Zumba (latin), and Dance Out (hip hop with a little bit of country).
If you wanted to, you could dress in your gym clothes (something like you would have worn in gym ions ago). An instructor, who I had never met, went around while we were dancing and picked 3 costumes that she liked. I didn't know she was doing this. After it was over, she annouced who she picked. I was one of them. Then they let the people decide who the winner was based the amount of applause.
I was the winner! I got a nice Zumba t-shirt. I have lost 14 pounds, but why does the camera always add 10?

  1. Hey Crystal. I'm the instructor you've not met! My classes are in Gaston County. I had no idea that when I finally made it to the Bash Friday night, I would be put in charge of picking the best outfits! (I think it was b/c I wasn't supposed to be dancing so much on my injured ankle). It was great to see you going "full out" and dressed to impress! It made my job a little easier. If you're ever around Gaston County, we would love to see you in class. Thanks for being so loyal to QCDQ!

  3. You look great! I was thinking that when I saw the first photo, before I read that you lost 14. Way to go! You should change your profile picture to that last photo. :)
