There’s no backing out now. It’s time to hit the dance floor for practice, and more practice.
The six dance teams competing for the Geneva Dancing with the Stars event on Feb. 9, 2013, at Eagle Brook Country Club have been given their dance assignments.
Between now and the night of the annual fundraiser for the Geneva Cultural Arts Commission and the Geneva Academic Foundation, these couples will be perfecting steps and body movements in the hopes of garnering the most $1 votes to earn the title of this year’s champion.
